I'd say it's the opposite. Surely the fact all our working men and women have job offers better than minimum wage, allowing them to better support their families, is something to be celebrated?
The threshold for what kind of UI changes are worth complaining about should not be set at drastic fundamental reorganization as you seem to want, nor at the "any visible difference" you impute to Mozilla's detractors. Rather, the threshold should generally be at any change that requires existing users to re-train or otherwise detracts from the productivity of experienced users.

Mozilla in recent years has been flagrantly ignoring the usability costs of their changes and has shown a willingness to make gratuitous changes. Many of these changes could make sense if Mozilla expected their user base to be on an exponential growth trend, such that the existing users who are alienated or annoyed by changes will soon represent a small portion of the overall username. But that's obviously not the situation Mozilla is in.

It's still a fun book to work they even if the examples are outdated.

I found a used copy of it for $1 a few years back. If I remember correctly, it's easy enough to take the ideas and implement them using SDL instead of MS QuickC like they use in the book.
The aristocrats!

All jest aside though, I wonder how long this type of thing will continue, or if Chrome will just consume all.
> "Reality has a well known liberal bias"

Yes, but not "American liberal bias". American liberal identity politics is mostly not on the side of reality, and that is like half their platform. It isn't liberal either so the statement isn't technically wrong, but since your statement was made by American liberals I'll assume you think it is.

I do support many of the things American liberals wants to do since I do support a balanced mix of freedom and guard rails, but I still think they are very wrong about around half the things they talk about. So "reality has a well known American liberal bias" only works if you have a biased view of reality.

And to be on topic, the Kyle Rittenhouse trial is very much an identity politics topic, and in that topic reality is not on the American liberal side. Lots of people will of course argue otherwise, just like how lots of American republicans will argue that human caused climate change isn't a thing, but reality doesn't seem to agree with those two groups.
While we are still waiting for home-page to work on a new tab if your home-page is local file what can we expect from those idiots if they cannot manage to fix even that?

Those idiots cannot respect me and let me choose when and what I wish to update. They bombard me with 'update available' messages jumping into my face in the middle of what I am doing, disrespecting me and my flow.

No option to turn off updates completely. Again, what can we expect from such brainless idiots?

Oh, but of course, they are too busy with idiotic useless facelifts.

I couldn't care less about their idiotic UI "inventions" never needed in the first place. Those people simply do not know what to do thus directing their endless idiotic activity to useless BS.

And then they bombard me with 'update messages' and how it is absolutely 'essential' to install their 'new' BS.

Where those people are coming from I wander ? Where are those idiots created and multiply? At least they should learn respect the choice of people not to deal with them and their 'bs updates'.

Ask HN: Best way to Google? log out first
so, everyone on here likes to posit that google is ‘the best search engine’.

my question is, since google ‘personalizes’ search so much from individual to individual, if I want to truly take advantage of the wisdom of crowds, to get the best out of google search, don’t i have to log out first? which enables generalized search results, rather than google telling me what i want to see?

You can't seriously imagine that "the space force" could enforce something? Space farce.
And Firefox has been my daily driver for years and the new tab design was enough to finally push me over to Tree Style Tabs full-time. I like everything about Firefox, except for the management practices of Mozilla and the constant unnecessary UI meddling that trashes my userChrome.css practically every update. It's very hard to guess overall user sentiment from anecdata.

I don’t know, “coming of age” seems to imply that there’s some pre-maturity period out of which something is emerging.
Did you get the pattern wrong? From the screenshot, it really looks like the pattern is: close "x", then title, then icon, then a gap before the next tab.

At least, that's what I thought it was, and now I'm not sure. Without a border, there is no way to tell which "x" goes with which tab. Without a visual grouping using some kind of border or shading, wouldn't the "x" make more sense located next to the icon and title?
I wasn’t there, so I’m guessing.

If you know how to do 4x, but think 10x is epsilon away from “best possible”, you set a 10x objective even if you only know how to hit 4x.
Yes - I guess I should have rephrased my comment (or read things the first time more carefully) - thanks for pointing out the inconsistencies so poignantly...

Tbf, 9 users is a not insignificant number of their userbase. I say that as someone who has only ever used Firefox as my default browser.

But yeah it seems like every release of ff there's a vocal group saying how it's going to pot and it's all doom and gloom.

I have been using ff since it was called Phoenix and it's fine. I fire up Chrome and Edge out of necessity for work and have never been compelled to switch.

Maybe I just don't need whatever it is that Chrome has that makes it so special but all the browsers are pretty decent these days.

At some point around IE11 I realized I wasn't writing W3C standards HTML/JS and then having to hack it for noncompliant browsers. I wrote code once and it just worked.
I take it you run ESR then :-)
It's crap like this that makes WW3 a real possibility with these demonstrations of recklessness.
I know it's minor, but managing virtual desktops is infuriating. There after I take the two steps necessary to manage virtual desktops (swipe four fingers up and move the mouse to the top of the screen). There are exactly 4 actions I want to take:

* Select a desktop (even this is questionable as an action)
* Re-arrange a desktop
* Add a desktop
* Remove a desktop

----

Nearly all of the time, I want to remove a desktop because I have too many of them.

I would expect a sane UI where the X button is always shown _and_ deleting a desktop results in a new X in the exact same spot (so I can quickly close multiple desktops).

Instead, I have to hover to reveal the x, click it. Everything then shifts to a magic new location where I have to repeat hover, find X, click it.

Drives me up the wall.
Switched to tree style tabs years ago, will never go back or use any other browser because of it.

I've been writing C for two decades.

But in recent years I have used Go as a replacement for C whenever possible. I think of Go as an improved C, with slightly different performance characteristics.

In your opinion, what is the advantage of writing a program like Mako in C rather than Go?
The lack of a toxicology report on everyone involved is what I want to know about. How many of them (Rittenhouse included) were high, or a little buzzed, at the very least?

Or am I so naive and that a mob-like situation truly brings out the animals in all of us. Cooler heads did not prevail on either side.

Whatever happens, everyone involved should never be allowed to own a gun again. They could have all gone to a bar and had a fist fight and be done with it.

And the mother even drove the kid down there armed. The chaos of Mania makes me wonder if this is the last of this behavior we’ll see from everyone before this decade calms down.

It may well be that taste is initially acquired through feigning, but it can develop into something more personal down the line. Charles Rosen mentioned it at the end of his Critical Entertainments:

"It is not at all natural to want to listen to classical music. Learning to appreciate it is like Pascal's wager: you pretend to be religious, and suddenly you have faith. You pretend to love Beethoven-or Stravinsky-because you think that will make you appear educated and cultured and intelligent, because that kind of music is prestigious in professional circles, and suddenly you really love it, you have become a fanatic, you go to concerts and buy records and experience true ecstasy when you hear a good performance (or even when you hear a mediocre one if you have little judgment)."

Not everyone/every culture has the same relationship to food as the west. (I personally feel being more utilitarian about food is healthier in the long run).

> The European Central Bank chairwoman is a felon convicted for massive government payouts.

Why do people feel the need to deliberately mislead by leaving out all the important details? I had no idea what you were talking about, so I looked it up, it's the second item under https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christine_Lagarde#Controvers....

Regardless of your opinions on that particular court case, or the fact that the letter of your statement may be true, do you honestly think "The European Central Bank chairwoman is a felon convicted for massive government payouts" would give the average reader an accurate view of what happen? Because after reading what actually happened, and which IMO comes nowhere near to the deliberate malfeasance you imply, I just conclude that, to put it colloquially, "You're full of shit."
How do I learn proper writing?
I'm insecure when it comes to writing. I've seen fellow programmers who have the ability to write beautiful prose that gets their point across, empowering their career. And they do it quickly too. Now management prefers to hear only from them, even if somebody else was working hard on the project in place.

I think writing, like painting to some and even programming to others, doesn't come naturally to me. I spent a lot of time formulating this passage.

I want to become better at writing. I want to learn how to write well like back when I did with programming. The difference is I didn't find writing manuals or textbooks that practically point me to the right direction.

> From the posted image, is it really that hard to differentiate the not active tabs? There’s a clear pattern: icon, title, close “x”.

Yes, and if you're running the Multi-account Container extension you'll see a colored band up top that separates the tabs. Plus get all the perks of Multi-account Containers! (a feature which no other browser has I think)
I didn’t realize this change[0] was introduced. The good news is you can disable it, the concerning part is if that lever will be removed at some point. I guess I’m more concerned about targeted ads, and my browser behavior being logged/mined (afaict this is not the case).

Yes, it's also used in component models, like to auto-fill the property that changed to implement INotifyPropertyChanged [1]. I believe it's used in the MVVM toolkit, which has been getting positive press lately. It's apparently for building generic controller layers for a UI.

Giving Bitcoin to someone who doesn't know the details of how it works could be a disservice to them. For example, the recipient would need to know that they have to keep track of the Bitcoin's dollar value when it was received and pay capital gains tax on the difference when they cash their Bitcoin in for dollars.[1] If they forget to do that, they could get in trouble with the IRS. They'd need to know the tax implications of a short-term vs. a long-term sale. They'd also need to know that the price of Bitcoin was very volatile, and they could easily lose a large fraction of the card's value before they get around to redeeming it. So it may not be the most thoughtful gift to give to random family members or employees.

[1] Since the IRS treats cryptocurrency as an asset, like shares of stock, the rules governing the gifting of stock would presumably apply to it. For a discussion of those rules, see https://marketrealist.com/p/tax-implications-gift-stocks
Pratchett is amazing, one can identify his prose from a mile away. RIP to a beautiful soul.
Disclaimer: I own a few guns and am an Army vet, but this is just my current understanding. I recommend consulting the ATF guidelines yourself and/or your local sheriff's office since rules tend to vary by state and jurisdiction.

The ATF makes these rules, and currently (my understanding, haven't looked in a while to see if anything changed with the new administration) an AR pistol is something that's less than 26" overall with a barrel of less than 16". There's also rules about how you can't put an actual buttstock on it (but you can put a "brace" ... the definition of which can be confusing). Anything shorter than that and does have an actual stuck is an SBR (short-barrel rifle) and you need an ATF tax stamp for that.

I think 'probabilistic programming' is potentially one of the next popular paradigms of programming (or perhaps data science), especially with stuff like copilot. In this space, Julia can potentially shine relative to the current incumbents, since the focus on whole language JIT + lispyness really mixes very naturally to the style of the staged programming that is necessary for more complex probabilistic models. It also has one of the nicest libs for it (Turing), which is stan-like, but allows for more advanced models: https://turing.ml/stable/

My Julia-fu is weak compared to my Python or R-fu (or even C++), but the ecosystem is pretty innovative, if still immature (I would love more gradual typing tools).
> And when either is held in the hand and swung, they have substantially more leverage than the hand itself. Unless you think he was swinging a skateboard from his armpit?

A skateboard held in your hand can't use much of the mass of your arm to help, it's mostly impacting with its own weight. Your hand can impact with a lot more weight behind it even though the swing radius won't be as big.
Guessing he'll say Erlang
Continuing to clarify the facts of the situation.

He had already committed murder at this point. It's not unusual (though it is unwise) to attempt to prevent a murderer from running away. Furthermore, saying that anyone was "attempting to grievously assault him" is speculation, since he shot and killed the first person to reach him after he tripped, and then shot the next person who was trying to disarm him.

It starts at Big Tech (Material Design for example). I think we should teach designers history of UX/UI and how things used to be. From 1950's typewriter UX to the latest AR tech. This education can put perspective and curate a better understanding of the user. A more empathetic approach. Not fashion trends, rounded corners and huge purple typography.

Big Tech operates like a horse-eyed A/B tests driven UX/UI machine and doesn't understand anything but. There is no Steve Jobs to overrule.
I feel like you're going to need different filesystem concepts to deal with full byte addressable storage.

There's a lot of simplifications you can use knowing everything is a world of 512 byte/8k blocks.

Everything that's a linked list of blocks would suddenly be lists of "start and offset" instead, because you might have a file was fragmented as "1Mb at offset A, 32 bytes at offset B, and 5Mb at offset C". You'd likely need some tradeoffs for minimum fragment sizes to avoid a file sharding into a million 32-byte fragments and requiring a huge number of distinct reads to load, and maximum sizes that would be manageable without overloading the recipient device's buffer.
