While I may be the only one around here to not know this, but I didn't realize Brave was OSS all the way through. That's great. I used FF for 19 years and switched to Edge fulltime in August ('21), and never looked back as each browser has its strengths and weaknesses. In the end, other than me being upset with feature removal in FF, I found Edge objectively comes out on top for me.

Vivaldi always seemed to hold the most promise but was buggy for me and still missing strong iOS integration that the competition has in place. Having used FF for so long, I was ready to go to a larger provider. So mainly, MS, Apple, or Google. Native browsers have big advantages so resisting those no longer made sense if I'm making a switch.

But Brave in my testing, did not completely convince me. Reviewing my testing notes-

Brave- no dedicated search bar option (important for privacy / prefetching and not having to continually retype your search query). Didn't get to mobile support and crossplatform sync. No dedicated extension store.

Of course, I had to give up on my dedicated search bar requirement, because FF's has been gimped by Mozilla, and Vivaldi had other unrelated usability flaws. So Edge it has been, and being completely honest, I've been thrilled with it. There's plenty other good here to overlook that and I haven't missed it as much as I thought I would.

All that said, I'm now going to keep Brave in mind, moving it up a notch. I always liked Eich which doesn't hurt. I don't fear a Chromium world, and never used FF because it wasn't, in fact I mostly resented it. I just don't see eye to eye with the anti-Blink crowd.

I think Firefox should've morphed into Brave, rather than be a separate project. A Brave that has Vivaldi's feature set would be perfect. Only thing missing then is major vendor support, and it'll always be non-native on all platforms, but at that point it could be overlooked.

For Firefox to fight its way back will require more than anti-Blink monoculture advocates supporting it. Blink has become the same as the USD, and isn't to be feared. For me, that's like saying you're resisting using the US Dollar because you don't want monoculture. Yet look at how much you can do with the USD. It enables quite a bit, embracing it just enables you to get other things done with less resistance. Users benefit. More important missions are at play. Like perhaps privacy, transparency, both things that Brave clearly focuses on. Or whatever one's chosen priorities are.

I legitimately love MS Edge, and I always keep Tor installed for the best privacy, but Brave is now my #2 pick for a daily driver and will be advocating for it for those that don't want to use their native browser.
I haven’t read the full post, but what’s the benefit of adding language support for records and tuples at this point? My understanding is that engines already optimize the objects/arrays version of those concepts pretty well, and TypeScript enforces the semantics on the dev side.

Depends on the energy. Back into electrical energy would be a waste in many cases (exceptions like cars occur). Pumps are maintenance parts and you need a a fitting landscape. Batteries are a solution, but having billions of them isn't viable as well, especially not under ecological considerations. Superconducting storage are only energy efficient if you neglect the required cooling, otherwise they can only fulfill their function as a small short time buffer.

I don't want advertise hydrogen, but it is the most simple form of potential energy in our atmosphere and I have the impression that fans of the accumulator feel threatened somehow. Sure, investments in hydrogen technology should not negatively affect research in batteries. But since they already have real economical applications, I don't see any issue here. There are numerous interests that would want more powerful batteries.

True though this may be, I don't see unions gaining any real mindshare among developers. Whenever the subject comes up, you get the standard straw man arguments against unions, and that either ends the discussion, or turns it into some extended shit show that ultimately goes nowhere.

While you might be able to easily "vote with your feet" in this industry, not everybody can afford to stand up for a principle like this on penalty of getting fired.

I don't know what the real solution here is. I'd like to see unions make gains among software engineers, but there's a lot of animosity from people who think they'll be "held back" if they have to join a union. I don't see that kind of attitude going away anytime soon.

I am a paid pro subscriber on Inoreader, and use it 2-3 hours a day for my work. I should mention that it provides a very limited number of certain types of feed (custom-created RSS, Twitter feeds, etc.), and you'll run out of them almost immediately if you want to follow a lot of places.

That analogy falls over because IRL we have public, government-owned property where there is no private owner. The sidewalk in front of your house is only owned by the government, it is nobody's "house".

The internet lacks this because we have no government infrastructure that directly hosts messages. There is no internet equivalent to standing on a street-corner with a sign, using only the tools of communication that you own, in a public space.

If I run an offensive protest inside of a mall, I will be asked to leave and ultimately thrown out. In this sense, Facebook is the digital equivalent to the mall - they own the space.

The difference is that there is no street in front of the mall I could use instead. Even if I set up my own server, I will have to connect it to my privately-owned ISP, install it at a privately-owned datacentre.

That, to me, is the only real difference. The internet has no spaces that aren't somebody's house, unlike meatspace.

But imho, the solution is to create public spaces on the internet, not to demand that private spaces become public ones against their will.
This is true, but it can be very expensive depending on the dress code and what's in style/available in stores. I'm female and fairly curvy (38-27-40) and my options when I worked in person were often a cheaper dress/skirt that fit (due to there being professional dresses/skirts that didn't require tailoring) or taking every set of pants I bought to a tailor and adding a bunch to the price.

Also as a female that wears both sexes's clothing, the fabric on women's clothing is far thinner and less insulating than the fabric on men's clothing: I'm substantially warmer when I wear men's clothing (but again, that's not professional). On the other hand, women's clothing is softer and stretchier.

I work from home and in my pajamas now, but there are other variables contributing to the male/female office temperature debate.

Personally I think offices should just have 2 or 3 zones and let people work where they're most comfortable. It would probably be the most productive too.

Hot baths without running water were available to ordinary people. They would boil water on a stove and put it into the bathtub.

The big problem with your argument here is that it's special pleading. You just focus on some technologies that weren't available then. You don't even make an attempt to show that these very few specific things somehow dominate "lifestyle."

I think having full service everything, and no labor obligations, including architects who can build buildings (and know how to make them be cool in summer!) is very much more important to characterizing lifestyle than any specific technology.

I constantly see people say they won't buy an EV because of recharge times and not being able to go on a 'road trip'. There seems to be some misunderstanding about how easy it will be to add hydrogen filling stations vs charging stations. While I don't know the % of people that actually care about charge/filling times, there are always some comments. I mean, I know someone in real life that says that, or at least did, and could certainly afford a Tesla, but still chooses a gas vehicle.

Now, will they eventually come around? Maybe, but a refillable combustion engine burning hydrogen certainly has some marketability, and perhaps some companies (like Toyota) made a miscalculation on how easy it would be to get people into EVs vs actually developing Hydrogen vehicles. I have a hard time understanding why Toyota has so little in EV offerings if this is not the case (and Toyota's advertising in Japan still doesn't mention full EV as the future).

A big part of this is that outbound connections are constantly changing. I tried to firewall a web scraper a while ago that as part of its operation had to execute some untrusted JS. It sounded easy - it only ever connects to one site, so just let that pass through. But that site used shared hosting of some kind and their IP address would change on a surprisingly regular basis. The scraper didn't care at all since it used DNS, but firewalls can't do that.

The solution we ended up implementing was to run the scraper through a local HTTP proxy, block all other connections, then use the proxy's config to whitelist the site by the Host header.
This, of course, meant doing SSL stripping on the proxy, which was only acceptable because the proxy was ours. If a hosting provider suggested something like this we'd laugh them away.
The 'comm' command should be in there. With no options 'comm' takes two files, F1 and F2, which should be lexically sorted, and produces 3 columns of output.

The first column consists of lines that are only in F1, the second column consist of lines that are only in F2, and the third column consists of lines that are common to both files.

The option -1 tells it to not print column 1, -2 tells it not to print column 2, and -3 does the same for column 3. These can be combined, so -12 would only print column 3 (the lines that are in both files) and -13 would only print column 2 (the lines that are in F2 but not F1).
I'm with you on this being a possibility, but I'm curious if you have a couple specific numbers that I'd want to better evaluate this possibility.

It of course costs energy to create solar panels and wind turbines (let's ignore nuclear for now), but the energy output potential of a given solar panel over its lifetime isn't really inherently tied to the energy required to produce it. Theoretically production of these devices should become significantly more efficient at certain levels of scale, and if solar panels production were to increase by 10x, the amount of energy needed to produce those panels would increase by some other smaller multiplier.

Given that people presumably can see this coming, it makes sense that some entrepreneurs will take advantage of the current climate of relatively cheap power to create and stockpile energy production capacity in anticipation of the failing of fossil fuels from an EROEI perspective. This, combined with ample opportunity for additional hydroelectric development if we're willing to sacrifice certain riparian ecosystems, makes me think that electricity generation itself will not really fall, and instead the problem will mainly be seen with things that require dense, portable energy i.e. airlines.

Yep - it was clear from the beginning that hospitalized patients throw a ton of clots, so it's been in the guidelines since 2020 to treat anyone presenting with Covid symptoms with prophylactic thinners;

> Hospitalized nonpregnant adults with COVID-19 should receive prophylactic dose anticoagulation (AIII) (see the recommendations for pregnant individuals below). Anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy should not be used to prevent arterial thrombosis outside of the usual standard of care for patients without COVID-19 (AIII).

From what I understand, there doesn't seem to be much benefit for overall treatment of the disease (e.g. sick people's lungs don't get better more quickly) but it's preventing tons of PEs and strokes so that's obviously very valuable.

> Because there are competing storage solutions and the question is if hydrogen is actually "sensible here?

So build the competing storage solution.

Except you can't. Because we all know that Li-ion is a dirty mineral to mine and extract, and that worldwide production of it is incredibly limited. And you know it.

So to meet our needs of expanding energy storage, the use of steel and concrete to store hydrogen is more scalable and cheaper to build out.

> I'm mostly pointing out that hydrogen is (currently at least) a very inefficient method of storage, on top of being an actively dangerous and problematic one.

And I'm pointing out that Li-ion is effectively impossible with our current means of production. So there's no point arguing for it as its being deployed as quickly as humanly possible.

--------

Li-ion is growing too slowly as an industry. Its not going to work, and expansion is going to be incredibly dirty. The critical components of Li-ion are quite dirty (Cobalt, Li-ion, etc. etc.), especially compared to steel and concrete.
