Kind of a, each update for Mozilla Developer version f*cks up the working version before.
More and more I have to change the settings "about:config".

I am really thinking to switch from Mozilla Developer and Google search engine to something else.

Any recommendations?
I would be absolutely comfortable with him leading Mozilla. No, I don't hate you, no, I don't hate gays, no, I'm not sorry you feel like Eich has insulted you, I completely don't give a fuck. What I give a fuck about, though, is having a good browser, and since making good browsers has zero relationship to being either pro or anti same-sex marriage, I wouldn't be less comfortable because of the fact the organisation that makes a browser and other web-stuff is controlled by a guy that has a polar position on that matter to what I have. Heck, let me be blunt: if you cannot have a strong mutual disagreement (or even rivalry) with someone, but cooperate with him on the unrelated topic if it is mutually beneficial, it means you are a child and your opinion shouldn't be listened to anyway (let's ignore the fact that behaving like a child turns out to be good for your political career today).

As a side-note, pretty much unrelated to the point of that post, I don't see anything wrong with being opposed to same-sex marriage and promoting this opinion. As a matter of fact, I don't see why would anybody be opposed to that, but, hey, that's probably more the reason why somebody who is opposed to that should get a better PR so they could explain me their position. That is what constitutes healthy political climate, which is an opposite of calling a witch-hunt on anybody who has been caught supporting or even having a non-conventional political beliefs (which, ironically, today equals to having so called "conservative" beliefs).

Having said all of that, I actually have no idea if Eich would have been a good CEO. I don't know how much in common this job has to what he has previously done, and if he would be good at it. I don't like the current leadership of Mozilla, but there's no proof that Eich would be any better, I simply have no information that would allow me to say "things would be different if only Eich was the CEO".
Yes, it's a good enough reason when 1% of the population dies and a substantial population has extended long-term symptoms.

No, it's not being personally responsible. It's collective responsibility.

Personal responsibility in a pandemic is fallacy and idiocy.
Most compression algorithms have a limited data reference window (dictionary size) - tens to hundreds of MB being typical upper limits. If duplicated data is further apart, it gets compressed again.

If the data isn't pre-compressed, or doesn't otherwise significantly vary, then using the right tools should de-duplicate the data. Things like lrzip, rsync batch mode, bdiff should work well. If large blocks are identical, many filesystem archivers/backup solutions should do good deduplication, and squashfs can be kind of nice.
To be fair: it sounds like a GPT-3 post was considered an insult back when. Not sure it passes as an insult anymore.
Sometimes I get the impression from rust advocate articles on HN that they are snobs. Not here; no way. This was well written, cheeky, thorough, and gave me a solid sneak peak at doing rust from a c/c++/go/python/Java background. The exacting standards of stopping data races at compile time is an exacting task. I think I followed most everything here, although I wondered if the crossbeam inclusion should be in language not library code ... But I don't know enough to press further. Solving problems in libraries not language probably is better.

Rust is one of few if only languages I am aware of that hit hard on data safety without a gc. That'll make it quite different to the programmer.
Exactly that. Fire up a rocket, bet where it lands. Multi billion $ off books industry.
> Eich resigned. He wasn't fired.

Oh, come on. We all know what "resigned" means, when the one resigning is a CEO.

IMHO more important question is why ISP market in US is so broken, while it works in other places.

Instead of 'bad' regulation like heavy handed regulations of 'investments, profits and pricing', there should be 'good' regulation to improve competition without direct market intervention.

Running small ISP is extremely simple, i started one (non-profit) while studying a university. Why this does not happen in US?
So, here in Australia we had a plebiscite on legalising same-sex marriage, and I voted in favour of it. If I were a Californian, I would have voted against Prop 8.

You say the only reason your partner could immigrate is due to being allowed to marry, but it is actually also due to US immigration laws not recognising civil partnerships or de facto relationships. If they did, your partner could have immigrated even if you weren’t allowed to marry. I don’t know what Eich’s views on immigration laws are (or were), but for all we know he might support such a change to US immigration laws. I think it is very likely that some people who voted for Prop 8 would have supported such a change (I can’t say whether that “some” would have been few or many.) Personally, I think immigration laws should be marriage-neutral, and treat married and unmarried relationships the same.

I think it is an important cultural norm that employees be allowed to engage in small-scale, mainstream, private political activity outside of work without getting in trouble at work for doing so. We need this norm to apply at CEO level as well, because the norm at the top flows downhill to the rest of the company. (“Mainstream” means it doesn’t apply to fringe groups like neo-Nazis; “small-scale” means it no longer applies if employee wants to run for public office, lead an activist group, etc)

(There is possibly an exception for CEOs supporting policies which directly contradict the core business interests of the company; I don’t think marriage laws relate to the core business interests of a browser vendor; DMCA laws are possibly somewhat closer to those core business interests, but even then probably not close enough - if Mozilla’s product was a content platform in its own right, as opposed to being a tool used to access other people’s content platforms, then DMCA would have been directly relevant to their core business.)

I think the biggest blame here lies, not with people who called for Eich’s sacking, but with the failure of the Board to publicly come to his defence. A CEO can weather any amount of public criticism so long as the Board still publicly supports them.
Tech/HNW crowd fleeing Bay Area/Seattle for space. I know of a few well-funded startups that have essentially relocated to Bend area (broken commercial leases in Bay Area and major employees/management moved to Bend).
This is better than my Verizon data plan. The only time I can get decent speed without any timeouts in most of the Bay Area and even Tahoe is either when no one is awake or during the lockdown. Otherwise, it's Verizon data is near useless for me
It can but it can also expose you to a lot of different cultures and experiences outside your comfort zones. Like anything else, it’s somewhat incumbent on the individual to engage those experiences.
Just FYI, for anyone reading this and having the same problem, I suggest they try Serpy which is a near drop-in replacement for default DRF serializers. It might solve your performance problem without having to switch to a completely different API framework.
> I originally laughed at "in five minutes", but even though I do not think the article reads in five minutes, it does a surprisingly good job of covering the basics: so good job!

Slightly off topic, but just to riff on this a bit: maybe books and articles called "$THING in $NUMBER_OF $TIME_PERIODS" or "Learn $THING in $NUMBER_OF $TIME_PERIODS" should be retitled "$NUMBER_OF $TIME_PERIODS with $THING." It would be more accurate, not imply any sort of mastery, and, on top of that, sound a little more dignified. But, maybe it wouldn't sell as many books, so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
Perhaps. People spend less time on the web then when on desktops though. While on mobile they're prefer native apps.

By the way, Chrome's market share has been trending down for a while. Only at 58% now.

Saw this coming a mile away.

A lot of articles that make it to the front page of HN are formulaic. We open ourselves up to this. Every blog post with shallow observations, every tutorial showcasing the first few pages of documentation, every biography on how to make money fast, every lucky shit that pontificates on how to manage teams and companies, every one selling an ebook, and everyone selling an ebook about selling an ebook after having sold 50 lifetime ebooks (topic being about success of course), and it was only a matter of time.

I count 3-4 posts about depression and existentialism per week on HN, and few ever reference the depth in which many great writers dig deep into the subject. Exercise more I guess.

Time to add ‘did a novice or a robot or a sociopathic narcissist write this?’ to our critical thinking toolbox.

Edit: I can’t tell if I fell for a gpt article about a gpt article, for what it’s worth. This is going to be a disaster when it hits the masses.

Which market are we talking about?

If we compare the 3 million ceo pay with a few different organizations we get wildly different rates. Compared to EFF CEO that get paid less than 300k, its an 10 times too high. Compared to the linux foundation, Torvald get a bit above 2 million so mozilla is still paying too much. Compared to IBM, and I would guess their CEO get way more than 3 millions.

What is the market rate for employees willing to work on free software and advocacy? What is the market rate of non-profit CEOs?
I totally agree with the author. I've been frustrated finding the information I needed so many times, and when I eventually found it by putting together the pieces from different sources, I called it a day and moved on.

But then one day I figured that me wasting the time to find an answer might be something that's affecting other people as well, so I did a couple experiments. My entire blog is now mostly a bunch of solution posts to various issues I encountered (I know, not very sexy). The most popular one by far is https://dragoshmocrii.com/ubuntu-20-04-stuttering-animations... which brings in tens of people everyday (not that much, but still). Initially, I just posted the solution, but then I wanted to see what people actually thought about it, so I encouraged them to drop me a comment if the solution did help them. So people started to reply, and it's a great feeling to see I could save people time!

One might wonder, why not use a better place to post a solution, such as Stack Exchange websites. And the answer is why not keep it on my website and build some reputation for myself, who knows who stumbles upon my solution post, and invites me to apply for a great job! ;)
System Preferences>Keyboard>Text. I use this to create trigger letter combinations that auto complete things I type frequently, particularly for business correspondence- for example if I type "FRA-", in any application, it prompts me with the option to autocomplete "For routing/assignment" I actually have someones difficult to spell's name in there too but have omitted it here. It"s useful to use ALL CAPS as the trigger. You can even stack the triggers, I have several individuals whom I may send a message to with "FOR ROUTING/ASSIGNMENT". to and I have them all triggered by the same capital letter combo, and I am presented with a dropdown list that use the down arrow to select which I want to use.
My rule of thumb is to budget 3 mbps for every "real computer" to keep itself up to date. By my count, in my home, that's 15. Here that's phones, traditional computers, VMs, and Raspberry Pis. And about 1 mbps for every "kinda computer". So that would include smart speakers and televisions.
HTM?
Yeah I know that... but what does this have to do with Gozilla? I don’t think Gozilla has ever been a Mozilla or Netscape product. The names are similar but they’re unrelated.
Eh, it's limited to 4 people per night, and they are doing extra cleaning and sanitizing to keep things safe. What more can you ask? How is that any more dangerous than the same 4 people spending the night anywhere else? Or, even, those same 4 people hanging out at the store during the day for, say, 12 hours? As the listing itself says:

> Keeping our customers (and now our guests!) comfortable and feeling at home is our priority. You’ll have the store to yourself from check-in to check-out, and it will be cleaned prior to your arrival in accordance to Airbnb's Enhanced Cleaning Protocol which is informed by recommendations from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

EdgeHTML was a fork of Trident, as much as they liked to trumpet it as a new chapter. A fair bit did change, but it was far from a new browser engine.

I've had to call 911 for such cause once in SF. A hobo tried to stab me with a needle, and chased after me. I called 911 specifically because i wanted someone to come and use force to keep me safe, as it would be illegal for me to use force myself (in modern countries, the state usually has the monopoly on use of force, and self defense needs to be proven beyond many doubts).

Would you say that you avoid answering questions on a regular basis? Do you pretend your questions actually seek an answer, rather than just making whatever point you want to make in the superficial form of a question?

Still, I'll answer the question: Yes, I think we are clearly not yet in a totalitarian regime despite our general lack of choice in internet providers. I believe we are clearly still in a democratic republic, although a badly-abused one.

Your last "question" suggests that the direction in which things move is inevitable, but American history demonstrates that is not the case. There has been an ebb and flow between moneyed powers and the people for more than 240 years, and we've been both better off and worse off than we are today.

We will fight back, and make progress, but things like that don't happen on an internet timescale.

Since you've declined to answer any questions or offer any alternatives, I'll offer some of my own.

Purely out of curiosity - is there something about them that makes them better than other optimization algorithms, e.g. simulated annealing, random local search etc, or for continuous functions gradient descent and the like. Seems like GA's are always glossed over as a relic of past times, it's pretty interesting to hear about them in practice somewhere!

After leaving Mozilla, he went to Brave, where they launched a privacy-focused browser which inserts affiliate codes when users visit certain websites, and which collects donations "on behalf of" content creators without actually giving the money to those content creators.

Maybe he's just not a great guy all around.
It covers many types of infrastructure outside of K8s. In the sense that you can use it to templatize infrastructure and inject many configs, it can work like helm. You can also use it in many other ways as well- creating your own classes, helper libraries, ternary operators, and all of the comforts of a general purpose language (often with a debugger).

Pulumi can deploy existing helm charts- just create a Helm resource, tell it where to look for the helm file, and it will deploy it and own its state moving forward.
Awesome :) . Any chance of walking across sand dunes?
Speaking of space delimited, you can also grab a whole directory full of any item and drop into numbers or excel and it will create a list of said files. Tab delimited. Great for inventorying media etc.
No offense but this just won't sell. Unless you have a truly novel and amazing mechanic, this is just another TD game like the hundreds available for free anywhere (thousands on itch.io).

Spending on art is not a nice-to-have here, it's a real requirement for people to take you seriously (though it might not be enough to get them to spend money). This video/screenshot won't get anyone to stop scrolling past, whatever the quality of the product.

Dunno if Americans have this but almost every degree at my university is “co-op” which means every other term is a paid full time job you have to seek out and get. And you have no summers. The result is that I graduated with two years of real work experience.

It’s a total game changer. It blows my mind how people can graduate with a degree and have no guarantee of any work experience. No idea how you turn that into a career.

I followed a link from there to the FCC test reports. Pages 7 & 8 of this application doc appears to make it out to be standard POE:

802.3af won't do that at any sort of appreciable cable length, so it's most likely 802.3bt.

Page 13 indicates it has a standard RJ45 connector, probably on the router to the customer's network. It doesn't explicitly say it's RJ45 to the antenna. But they're pretty ubiquitous and weatherproofing glands exist that will allow a RJ45 to pass through them. So .. probably.
I don't see why either of those things follow, particulary the second.

Cold ice, in an environment that doesn't supply energy to the ice, will not explore microstates at any notable pace, and thus will not melt.

I don't think it makes any prediction about what will happen when cooling water, because the freezing reaction is related to the specific chemistry of water molecules. The only prediction is that any macrostate that gets newly entered into is less likely to change, because of the relatively low energy state of the system (compared to the energy required to break the newly formed bonds of the crystalline form.

> Hayoun assessed that the Beirut incident involved underground explosions. The 43-metre (140-foot) deep crater at the port could not have been left by the explosion of the amount of ammonium nitrate reported by Lebanese authorities, he said: “It would have been shallower, maximum 25 or 30 metres.”

To make a claim about “maximum crater depth” seems like you’d need a lot of data about the ground composition below the storage area, and if the anfo was in a concrete silo that could amplify the blast by letting pressure build before failing etc
Maybe they should not be in SV then (especially if they expect to survive from donations from people from all over the world). You can find developers just as good all over for 1/4th the cost.

I have two kids attending college this fall, one at the state "flagship" school, and the other at a regional college. Both are dead certain, as are their friends, that college will last a couple weeks, then they'll send everybody home. It will happen just in time for nobody to be prepared for it. The kids are all signing up for online classes whenever possible.

My dental hygienist, whom I spoke to this week, has a daughter at one of the community colleges, in a transfer program where she does 2 years at the CoCo and then gets admitted to one of the state colleges to finish her degree. All of her classes are online. She's delighted with it. She takes classes at home while also caring for her little sister, while Mom works.
I think the same would be true of LibreOffice for example.
Well, then you should have literally written this instead of your first comment. Here, you've actually said something, and it doesn't come off as unjustified criticism of specific people whom you quoted. And, I now recognize that you have a point, which means you've successfully communicated.
The V8 blog mentions using a sea-of-nodes representation here: https://v8.dev/blog/turbofan-jit#more-sophisticated-optimiza..., though they don't say anything bad about it:

> The TurboFan JIT implements more aggressive optimizations than CrankShaft through a number of advanced techniques. JavaScript enters the compiler pipeline in a mostly unoptimized form and is translated and optimized to progressively lower forms until machine code is generated. The centerpiece of the design is a more relaxed sea-of-nodes internal representation (IR) of the code which allows more effective reordering and optimization.
