All feedback is welcome!
I also frequently wish developers would leave well enough alone, but what changes are you referring to? I don't remember big changes since Firefox 57 and even those took me maybe thirty seconds of adjustment.

This recent update seems more like a very minor reskinning than anything that would require adjustment.
They stopped trying to make menus even look native on other systems.
The aim is to have a single system for EU+EFTA (not sure about UK).
Those are the same people that will be getting electric cars in the next 10 years. The "rest of the world" buys the used cars the rich people are done with, so they won't be seeing electric cars for 15 years or so.
About 1: Are you saying that the competition for a role offered in Munich is the same as for the same role offered remotely within +-5 hours CET or planet wide?

I really don't think so. And I'm afraid that this is a classic race to the bottom for the most of us.
I know it's been a few days but what was the driver behind this question? My company uses CH and has near-real-time data being added (~5min delay from live), is this a problem and/or is there something about CH that doesn't play nice with this method? Or were you just interested in this particular case of inserting real time data?
Tell me about it. The newer Android Firefox UX is so bad I'm forced to stay on version 68. I can't use other browsers since extensions are core to my web browsing experience (especially userscript managers). Maybe once a year I'll try out the latest version to see if they've ironed out some of the problems.
I am not sure if it's the video itself or if we as 'anonymous' users keep getting in and out of regional a/b testing at youtube.

As an anonymous user I keep seeing different behaviours with both 'forcing' embeddded links and also normal mobile links with latest ublock origin. (On Android with FF + ublock)
That's the reason behind why Japan invaded Manchuria in 1931. Japan's invasion of the rest of China though was an act of militaristic hubris that caused a net loss in resources over 4 years and led them to invade the rest of southeast asia to patch this hemorrhage which then drew the US into the conflict with its oil embargo.

Japanese military planners in 1937 knew an invasion of China would be a waste of precious resources for little potential gain. But they were sidelined by younger military officers that wanted a shot at battlefield glory and ignored orders from above for a ceasefire after the Marco Polo bridge incident. And after the first battlefield victories started rolling in it became politically impossible to halt the momentum for continued war.
It's not insane. It's what people do to feed their families and keep their kids in the same school. It would be better not to, but it is far from insane.
To be perfectly blunt it doesn't matter what a team is doing. They paid $X million to "design resources" and directed those resources at the redesign featured in this release. Instead they could have paid that to backend, other UX initiatives, the extension team, the privacy team...

I understand that you can't swing resources around freely in the short term but you don't have a bunch of designers sitting around by accident. Someone decided that they should hire them.
That depends on how fast the coyotes run.
Thanks, that definition fits how people seem to use the term.

Still, I'm curious as to why maintaining current culture is seen as important. Is there a loss of productivity / profitability associated with the non-transmission of culture?
So, no one knows with complete confidence the long-term effects of nicotine alone (i.e., nicotine when taken without all the carcinogens in cigarettes associated with combustion that are not found in nicotine gum). But the evidence we do have suggests it's vastly safer than cigarettes. In fact, I don't even think we know if it's harmful on net.

Given the appetite suppression, and the known terrible effects of obesity, it could even be beneficial.

You will get addicted to it though.
Wow. This is a significant UX improvement for MacOS users! I might try FF as my daily personal browser in lieu of Safari.

Overscroll and (to a lesser extent) native context menus are huge to me.

Out of interest, what was your experience with students in Russia? Would be interesting to compare with my experience.

I suspect there is a big difference in Russia between top science universities and everywhere else. In my opinion, humanities education is of very poor quality in Russia so I could well imagine a party culture there. But the curriculum in top science programmes tends to be so intense and passing requirements strict enough that I doubt there is too much partying going on. However, a lot of the coursework I suspect is also still too outdated and often irrelevant.

There is also likely a big difference between students living at home and living in dorms. Who knows what happens in dorms, but the commuting students in my opinion don't tend to get too wild.

Finally, the social scene is just structured very differently. There are fewer elected subjects, and most of the social life happens during/between classes - the whole year just spends a lot of time with each other naturally and bonds over common struggles. There is a culture of trying to involve everyone in some sort of social life. You don't have to sign up for anything - it happens by default. Although I think international students would be treated differently and actually perhaps excluded. Instead of clubbing or going to bars, social drinking revolves more around drinking in someone's kitchen and engaging in pseudo-philosophical conversations.

Of course, my account is from a long time ago so things may be very different now.

1. and 3. Most countries have significant barriers to immigration, and even within a country, many people do not want to/cannot move for a job.
Yeah, I live in a weird bubble, but Saturday’s bar excursion was “no masks, no shirts, no distancing”, and the 1-hour wait in line would suggest that there’s plenty of demand for that.
Things like this, and especially the comments on the video, make me realize that we've lost some basic skills during our technological progress in society. It's good that these kind of videos are out there for those looking but it's sad that parents aren't teaching this to their children.
I’ve read some criticism towards this script and/or these kind of scripts in the comments. The criticism should instead be directed towards Microsoft, which decided to treat their customers (even alleged „Pro“ customers!) like babies and force useless bloatware, ads, telemetry and the absolute worst update system of any OS ever upon their users, thus making these kind of scripts necessary to begin with.
It seems like people have already forgotten. When TV ads gradually got less and less effective in the 90s. What was the result?

Incredibly intrusive constant bloody annoying ads. Not less of them, far, FAR more. To the point the TV became unwatchable.
Technically planning unionizing inside of the workspace has always been legally dangerous - the correct way to do it is to meet outside of work, at say a cookout or over drinks. Those methods can work too, although being remote can make them impossible. Unfortunately a fully remote company is much more union-proof, and that’s a very sad tradeoff.
So the implication is that one who talks about race “too much” is a racist?
Don't know, but putting numerical values on follower count is not likely to be that useful cross-platform due to differences in engagement level, demographics etc.
My company has/in-in-the-process of moving from ES to CH and from my (limited) perspective it's been going well. I greatly prefer writing CH queries over ES. I can't speak to RedShift but I wanted to throw in the data point of an ES->CH move.

I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic, but how could you possibly be productive after that?
There is a thing called a "tethered" or "umbilical" compiler in the Forth world where the target machine has nothing on it but a small comms program that is controlled by the IDE on the workstation. The IDE includes a way to kick off any piece of code interactively on the target from a command line but there is no actual REPL on the target machine, only the running code. This gives you a big IDE while running on a tiny target and reduces a lot of the crying shown in the cartoon. :-)

Is there something similar for other language environments?
> My company wants to go 2 days home and 3 days office. I've said I'd do it the other way around.

That's exactly the same as me. Company is talking about everyone coming back in for 3/2 starting in mid-September. My response is I'll see you for 2/3. I have a 20 minute commute which isn't too onerous, and I like having some in-office time as I find it valuable.

What will really be the test for me is how I feel after a month or two of the kids being back in school. Right now being home is still fairly social for me. Previous times I've tried to work remotely it was the loneliness of having only myself in the house for days on end that killed it for me.

I'm also a bit of a realist, though. Being remote (or at least 'more remote' than the rest of the team) is a serious career limit, so if everyone else starts spending most of their time in the office, I will probably follow along.
Isn’t it an argument to ignorance to claim UFOs are fictional? To confidently say they don’t exist would require you to be aware of all parts of the sky at all times.
Depending on your company culture, you could do that in the office as well. In some companies I worked at, weed brakes were an everyday occurrence for engineering, but gamedev in general and Tel Aviv in particular are a bit different from the usual white-collar office culture.
What’s the best way to creatively write with this? Auto-generate a couple sentences and then delete and replace?

The only one I've seen so far is Firefox-UI-Fix. In my opinion, it looks like it's halfway between the old and new UI.

My dad would joke about making a Q&A book called "The Fundamentalist's Guide to Science". On each left page would be a good question, like, "Why is the sky blue?" or "Why are there stars at night?" On each right page you'd see, "Because God wants it that way."

Ultimately, an "explanation" that can explain any set of data is useless. I will grant, given the state of the world, "Because God is fucking with us," is an emotionally satisfying one. But ultimately it's just as unhelpful as "Because God wants it that way" from a scientific perspective.
No I've also had age restricted embedded links throw an error with something like "this video cannot be played here" and linking to non embedded player link.
Maybe. I'm definitely not necessarily saying it in terms of work or career or anything like that. Just in general, I get a little depressed at the idea of just slogging through most of one's hours for most of one's days in existence.
Not OP, but we keep reading articles about US spy agencies illegally spying on americans so I don't trust them not to break the law to spy on us as well.
1. I kind of expect a general reduction in the "living in the USA' salary premium for a lot of jobs. It sucks for the people getting paid less, but hopefully the deflationary effects on the economy make up for it a bit.
True - my only gripe with it is that video icon is in the same place - if I have 5 YouTube tabs, 1 playing, that one with audio icon is very hard to distinguish from the other 4 with video icons. Not sure if video icon is useful to some people at all, especially since it's shown even if video is not actively playing.
Yeah, that bit is quite impressive! I also like how they handle international matters and diplomacy, but there are a few areas where their policies haven't been great. They're a conservative party, so they haven't handled things like police brutality, corruption, etc well.
> I am a manager and do have a concern for company culture. Culture is how the teams work together - socially, professionally. It's harder to maintain culture remotely.

The main aspects of firm culture that make difference in a day to day life are minimizing company politics, avoiding blame-game, honest interaction and manager's support. In my experience, it is the manager who contributes the most towards either improving these or screwing them up. None of these things require you to be physically present in office. Rest of stuff like events, group lunches etc are nice to have but not having them won't impact you as much as a political and toxic work environment would.

> How much empathy do you have for a voice on the phone versus a human being you interact with in person on a daily basis?

Since when basic human decency became incumbent upon seeing someone in flesh in front of you? Are you saying that people can't behave professionally unless they are not physically in office? How do fully remote companies work?

> Many people don't want to even use cameras for video calls.

For the same reason people hate meetings - resolutions to that are also the same that apply to face-to-face meetings.

> I think the benefits of remote work far outweigh the work that needs to be done to maintain culture remotely, but it is a new challenge that doesn't have a lot of good understanding around how to make it work.

Agreed on that - a good starting point would be not use culture as a justification to force people to be in office.
I like Gwern's nicotine webpage, but the evidence we have is consistent with nicotine being a carcinogen alone. Indeed, he says so himself in his third footnote.
could also be technical prowess from a private company or part of our government that is so secret it doesn't want to tell the military what it's doing, so it can be classified.

And that would also be cool

I've met a few people that really believe in aliens, and they are insufferable. It's like trying to talk to a young earth christian about dinosaurs. In general, I like when people question the official story, but not when they have their own answers to their questions. I have a feeling that this article is in response to that crowd. Though I can't read it because nytimes and all.
As an owner of the newer Ioniq (38kW battery), I agree with all these points. With the exception that I get around 200km range in the winter and 250-280 during summer.

This is the best car I've had for winters. -20C outside and it'll be toasty warm (like T-shirt warm) in around 5-10 minutes. That's faster than any ICE I've ever had, including the one with an extra fuel heater.

Slow charging at home isn't really an issue, I can get around 2kW from a normal shuko plug, which will charge a good 20kW overnight (10 hours or so).
I noticed this yesterday and now I am wondering what to do.
Especially when more and more videos are getting flagged.

ID is out of the question, credit card seems more plausible. However, i wonder what happens when you give the number. I don't want that it sticks after validation...
Just to add to the plusses you already mentioned, the amount of CO2 released into the atmosphere just by the practice of driving to the office everyday is immense.
I’m fairly content with my situation :)

What I mean by old is that I don’t “get” a lot of the newer fads these days. Particularly around the social space. Instagram, Snapchat, tik-tok and the newer voice based services just seem so intrusive and crazy to me. And snap and tik-tok are almost seizure inducing with the amount of content just screaming at you.

It’s just not -for- me. And I get that. But I don’t get it :)

That and as someone else said I do wake up with the occasional creaky back. And I’m noticing more and more gray in my beard every few weeks :)

Just not this stuff, any stuff without review. A lot of Windows advice has sadly always been the equivalent of curl | sudo bash - and the culture proliferates this practice. But it also highlights that Windows 10 is unusable without Group Policy, which is an almost sane interface for Windows "tweaks". Windows editions without full group policy support are essentially garbage.
Depending on the hardware, there are other languages available other than C.

For example I would rather use one of MikroElektronika Basic or Pascal compilers.

You do realize there are plenty of more technical changes in Firefox from release to release? Eg, per site process isolation was merged recently.

My mental model on commute time is that every 1 hour is a year of my life wasted over a 24 year career. More than that if I work for more than 24 years.
people wont complain imo, but a few will be lazy enough to not send their ID or put their card info
If they have to give over their CC number (which some people are reporting) maybe a significant numner will stop watching age restricted videos.
You're right the money could be spent elsewhere. But calling people resources is rude to put it mildly.
You may want to check out these tickets [1][2]. The latest comment in the second link nails it for me.

> I don't understand this decision. First the removal of compact mode was motivated because is has bad discoverability. Then community raise its voice to say that not what it wants. And the answer is to make the setting even less discoverable…

> Of course is won't be used if it is less and less discoverable. And this decision break the meaning of doing telemetry on compact mode altogether, how are we going to mesure if people prefer Proton normal vs Proton compact if they don't even have the option showed at all???

> Please keep support on compact mode, don't let it rot and broke

I think the second one is a massive issue. In an in-person world, mentoring and role-modeling happen all the time. Junior employees see what their seniors are doing, even when the seniors do not plan on being seen.

In the remote work world, junior employees can only see their seniors at defined events. Lots of mentoring needs to move to explicit mentoring relationships, and people have to move from "showing the right behaviors" to "explaining the right behaviors". And that assumes the mentee/mentor even know what behaviors they need to focus on! In person, you just get to see everything.
"Fairly clean" vs "zero local emissions" is a huge deal in cities with millions of cars.
Wait until you dig into the lore on capricious elves and pixies and realise that it overlaps UFO lore in the kinds of weirdness it contains, despite being recorded by people separated by centuries, continents, and cultures.
The subtext to the work-from-home trend is commercial real estate, both office and retail, which is an immense investment asset class.

I've seen very little dismissal of the trend that cannot be traced to commercial real estate, banking, or investment interests. Interestingly enough, all sectors which can themselves utilise remote office or work-from-home arrangements.

Bloomberg are first and foremost an investment information service.
Unionization is not net positive for everyone. Why are you looking at "good union" examples instead of much more realistic "bad" ones?
>but hopefully the deflationary effects on the economy make up for it a bit.

Have you paid attention to the housing market, car market, or really... any market in the last year?
Belgium checks this by sending a police officer to your address at a time you're likely to be home (~7:00 on a weekday evening, Saturday morning, or the like), regardless of whether you changed your address at town hall or online. The only reason more places don't introduce such features is that it's all done on the municipal level and not all municipalities have the same priorities.
Every municipality I've lived in has laws on the books against putting out trash too early, and also about condemning property (which I am admittedly not as familiar with, but I assume priorities safety over aesthetics, which makes sense). Municipalities have code enforcement and city councils to enforce the above rules.

I've seen municipalities that do a better job at these kind of things than HOAs. I've also seen HOAs that don't do a good job of enforcing their laws, seemingly falling apart. (I wonder if they can be sued in these cases?) For example, I've seen HOA neighborhoods with cars parked everywhere - driveways, street, blocking driveways, and on lawns, because the houses were unaffordable unless four or more working people lived there, and there was no way to get anywhere except via car.
Might happen for some companies, but the vast majority not. At least in Europe I'm pretty sure I'm not going to be replaced by someone from India because they don't speak our language, they live in vastly different timezones and their culture is different which doesn't make for the most efficient collaboration.
