Still the argument stands. Also the points you listed should be expected as standard - everybody will need sooner or later scaling or image updates right?
On a tangent, I noticed when opening a new private window they are now pushing the VPN service. This may have been implemented in a previous update. This seems to disable it... for now:

Then why are you not charged for napkins at a resturant? Regardless of need how the fees and taxes are distributed does lead to an effective discouragement - which is synonymous with punishment. It doesn't need an authority to impose them. The punishment for not unzipping your fly when peeing at a urinal is peeing your pants.

Have you considered how to release a full archive of the files? In 2021 this volume will be easily handled by data hoarders. Of course the whole site is very valuable but the upload collection is irreplaceable - ticalc.org is the host for releases.
No retired wife syndrome?
The article talks only about how stressful it is for the woman -- and nothing about how the man feels. Seems incrediably like "I used to party with my friends, but now my husband is around alot. So boring!"

You would think in well aligned couples this would be the opportunity to go and tour the world together or get divorced a find new partners.
What's wrong with pocket?
That would be different, but I think still have a negative impact. You can't show 10,000 people the same number of ads in the same period of time as usual while also delivering ads faster. So it means you're showing people more ads than usual.

But attention is a limited resource. If you throw more ads at me, I'm not necessarily going to respond to more of them. The more ads there are, the more it becomes background noise.

That’s why Apple’s proxy system is a good solution. Sellers can get in contact with you, but don’t have your real email address.
So, let's just state what's at stake here: who 'owns' the customer relationship. Apple wants to own the relationship, they do not want anybody else to have direct contact with 'their' customers outside of their platform because it allows them to turn the whole thing into a gigantic toll road.
> this is money they generally don't have to pay taxes on because of their status as a non-profit.

Minor nit here - they don't have to pay taxes because they don't make a profit, not because of their status. If a for-profit corporation doesn't make profit (and few tech companies do), they won't have to pay income taxes either.

$375k per employee for a pure technology company doesn't seem outrageous? That has to include facilities too.

It's hard not to read into your message the suggestion that you'd like Mozilla to outsource development to lower-wage countries. I really doubt that's going to succeed in a challenging and competitive market like browsers. IMO they'd be better off spending more trying to poach the best brains behind Chrome.

This leaves the same bad taste in my mouth as that one time Canonical added Amazon search to Unity.

I would assume that you fell on the "assume malicious intent too much" side of what's probably a normal distribution, while some other people are on the other side. If that theory is correct, people like you would benefit from Hanlon's razor, but other people would not, they should do the opposite.

I think "people that don't assume enough malicious intent" are a real thing, so I think Hanlon's razor is not an universally good recommandation.

Dynamic is very interesting and is not at all limited to boomer generation. Most of the time neither spouse has any concept of what the other actually does day to day.

I suspect that Apple is afraid that if the reasoning behind this became public that Apple's stock price would be strongly influenced and so they are trying to hide the information from the market. It will be interesting to see if there will be a net negative from the effect of the hiding by itself, after all now people are free to speculate and they might go further in their speculation than the actual ruling.

Dropping your salary by over 75% to below poverty wages doesn't signal to me that you have "skin in the game", it signals to me that you're compensating for poor choices by making further poor choices and you likely do not think very far into the future.

>No, it's predicated on the fact that they will continue allowing more of the virus to circulate and infect others (and also incubate variants).

Cognitive dissonance. You admitted the vaccinations don't stop infections. Therefore, variants will continue on whether people are vaccinated or not. There's quite a bit of irony in you prattling on about the big bad un-vaccinated while simultaneously not believing the vaccine provides you enough protection to go out and be safe.

No it's an objective observation based on your comments about being terrified of other people infecting you with a disease that has a lower likely hood of killing or harming you in any major way than driving in your car daily (on top of many other more deadly daily activities).

> last thing one wants is a language that requires a lot of thought about lifetimes etc.

I challenge you: A lack of understanding about the data lifetimes in a program means lack of understanding about the data.

Not saying you can't have a lot of short-lived data items that you don't want to manage one-by-one. I'm saying that for the vast majority of data items, one should be able to give a reasonably well defined lifetime upper bound. So a good solution is to make a few boxes that group items by lifetime. And from time to time, throw the outdated boxes away.

And of the few items that don't have such an upper bound at creation time, many can be created in a special box that allows migrating boxes later when required.
How many millions do they make? How much of that money goes towards Firefox development?
It feels like this also erodes the trust of many people in Mozilla even further.

Apart from many questionable choices over the past few years, they fired fired a large number of employees, then their CEO bumped up their own salary to 3 million USD: https://www.zdnet.com/article/endangered-firefox-the-state-o...

I am not sure whether their fall to around a 5% market share in the browser market had anything to do with any of the things in the above article, but to me it feels like the logical next progression at some point is to remove Mozilla from the actual Firefox software.

So my question is this: how long will it be before any fork of Firefox will gain a large following, much like what happened to CentOS/Rocky Linux?

Seems like there are quite a few independent forks, but nothing that i think would be a no-brainer for replacing Firefox as the default browser of any Linux distro or on a Windows desktop: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_web_browsers#Gecko-bas...

> Anyway, this is really a matter of implementation, not a language issue.

I think separating the two is a bit artificial. Python being slow is partially an implementation issue but the fast implementations can't run everything. When you compare languages, you have to compare implementations, otherwise it's meaningless.
Huh, information in https://calpaterson.com/mozilla.html are, delicately speaking, disturbing.

One thing surprised me as well:

"Firefox barely exists on phones, with a market share of less than half a percent. This is baffling given that mobile Firefox has a rare feature for a mobile browser: it's able to install extensions and so can block ads."

Yes, indeed, FF is pretty great on the phone, it looks like someone fails to advertise it as such. I use it precisely because I can use add blocker. The person with 2.4M compensation should notice that something wrong is going on.

I am afraid that Firefox/Mozilla at some point will become something like Yahoo or Commodore, a name that is being bought and sold by investment founds to extract some income and sell it further...

It's good because this puts an end to the farce that Mozilla cares for it's users privacy and that we should use Firefox even though it's lagging behind Chromium.

I do not trust Google but I don't trust Mozilla either. I just hope they don't kill MDN. We can't trust big corps be it for profit or non-profit.

It wasn't clear to me while reading this that the drop occurred while at the company, or was the drop from their prior gig. If they indeed lowered the salary their company paid them... yikes. Especially if a justification is "investor signalling". Sounds like kowtowing to unhappy investors.
Apple has filed a court case to block the publication of a report. Obviously the contents of the report will be discussed as part of the hearings. So if the hearings were public then the contents would become public as well, which would make the court case pointless. Hence the private hearings.

Deploy everything using a cloud native architecture and have all services internet facing, read about "zero trust networks" to understand more about securing such things.

Maybe there are "data governance issues" stopping the internet facing thing from happening. But if not, that's a more modern approach then three tier network segmentation.
> A lack of understanding about the data lifetimes in a program means lack of understanding about the data.

But this argument can extend forever.

Is your program precisely dependently typed? If not is that a lack of understanding about the nature of the data as well and should you challenge yourself to fix that?

You have to trade-off how much you specify things with how valuable it is to get the result more quickly.
Not entirely illogical, if something is expected to generate a lot of media attention, the case may be kept private to prevent the 'court of public opinion' to influence the outcome. Everything is still documented and shared afterwards regardless of the outcome.

I get the inevitable criticism, he calls it out himself: he's dropping his salary but he can afford to since he has two years of savings to burn through.

The sentiment though rings true for me at least — as I have been fortunate to have a large salary, over the years I in fact do finding new-self losing touch with old-self.

And losing touch with my roots, my friends less-fortunate lives, etc.

Different cloud providers did different things. Google's cloud offerings started with things like GAE, a very high-level service that many people ignored because it was too alien. AWS, on the other hand, provided fairly low-level abstractions like VMs (with some aaS services sprinkled in, but distinctly still 'a thing you access over HTTP over the network'). Both offerings reflect the companies' internal engineering culture, and AWS' was much less alien and more understandable to the outside. Now every other provider basically clones AWS' paradigm, as that's where big enterprise contract money is, not in doing things well but different.

With Kubernetes we actually have something close to a high-level API for provisioning cloud workloads (it's still no GAE, as the networking and authentication problems are still these but can be solved in the long term), and the hope is that cloud providers will implement Kubernetes APIs as a first class service that allows people to truly not care about underlying compute resources. Automatically managed workloads from container images are effectively the middle ground between 'I want a linux VM' pragmatists and 'this shouldn't be this much work' idealists.

With GKE you can spin up a production HA cluster in a click [1], but you still have to think how many machines you want (there's also Autopilot, but it's expensive and I have my problems with it). AWSs' EKS is a shitshow though, it basically requires interacting with the same networking/IAM/instance boilerplate as for any AWS setup [2].

No, I think that's totally the wrong way to think about it. It's not about 'what you want', or 'removing effects', it's about trying to represent the actual population of the country as accurately as you can, but with a sample group of only a few thousand people

Ideally, you'd just hope to be able pick people at random, and as long as the group isn't too small, it will naturally reflect the general preferences of the entire population - though in reality it's not likely to be so easy, not least because some people don't want to participate in your survey
Are there any legitimate cryptocurrencies? Stable coins as just another layer of scam built upon a foundation of scams.
Without wanting to poke a hornet's nest, I think a problem with the Brexit debate all the way through has been the bizarrely black-and-white arguments. If you step back and think about it, the idea that an issue as vast and complex and EU membership would have every single legitimate and well-informed argument pointing in the same direction seems a bit silly.

There are plenty of rational reasons that someone might have come down on the Remain side before but swung the other way now. The EU has arguably proved several of the major criticisms made by the more reasonable Leave supporters correct since then. There was criticism of the democratic deficit. Now we have Ursula von der Leyen running the show and (figuratively speaking) no-one is quite sure how she got there. There was criticism that the EU was excessively bureaucratic, litigious and slow-moving, and that member states were fair weather friends. Then we saw the handling of the COVID/vaccine and immigration/refugee issues. And the more extreme predictions of British life as we know it coming to an end haven't happened either (at least not because of Brexit).

Of course, there are also plenty of rational reasons that someone might have come down on the Leave side before but now think it was the wrong choice. Several of the major warnings given by the more reasonable Remain supporters have also proved to be well founded, particularly in terms of the immediate consequences of the extra trade barriers and the limitations on free movement of labour.

I'm not taking any side here, just pointing out that both sides had legitimate points to make before Brexit that have subsequently proved to be largely correct, and that someone who didn't expect that might have changed their view in light of that information, in either direction.

It's perhaps worth remembering that the older generation who voted more in favour of leaving in the Brexit referendum were much the same generation whose younger selves voted to stay in once before. Obviously the nature of what is now the EU had changed a lot in the meantime, and so had the balance of public sentiment within that demographic. It might be surprising if such a large shift had occurred in just a few years now but the basic premise that some people might have changed their minds since voting on Brexit is plausible enough.
The flip side is that suppose the ruling is overturned and is based on faulty law.

This is a good chance to understand the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation; The motivation that comes from within, and the one that is based on external factors.

Sending signals, writing about it, and making visible sacrifices will likely have short lived results. The extrinsic motivations run out pretty fast once you start feeling stressed, spread thin, etc.

If you can find some purpose or passion based reason to increase your “skin in the game” it’ll probably last way longer.
