I've heard good things from our customers about spr for GitHub (https://github.com/ejoffe/spr). It extends git with useful commands and hooks directly into GitHub PRs. We'll be adding some direct support for the tool in Reviewable shortly.
I was wondering the same thing. I think over the past months or even years, Mozilla has been trying to get their version to be the same number as Chrome. Maybe if they focused on making a faster browser they wouldn’t need to play silly number games with their versions.
When you only have 2GB a month of mobile data, anything that saves a megabyte is worth it, even stuff like Google's data saver they used to have.
One explanation would be that if you are an "extreme" user, you are bound to find fault with all the offerings on the market. The need to tweak/customize/adapt naturally arises when you have reached a certain level of sophistication and when it does, you can only be satisfied by a product/service appropriately tweaked/customized/adapted.
With average household electricity price in the EU at €0.2134/KWHr (second half 2021), I really wonder how much Bitcoin mining goes on there. The average cost in the US is less than half that, less in many of the southern states.
The heavy fines everyone is fear-no getting about are a running joke now.

It took 4 years and a non-profit making lots of noise for a brazen, obvious and malicious GDPR breach to be investigated despite it being plastered on every single website out there (I’m talking about non-compliant consent popups).

To date, the accumulated fine amount over the 4 years and all fined companies is around a billion. Now lookup the profit that just one top adtech vendor makes in a year.

The spirit of the GDPR is great but its enforcement is severely lacking.
Europeans really don’t want war on their continent. There are options which the governments can employ. Governments can offer free public transit, they can mandate remote work, they can mandate worker pick-ups for large workplaces, etc. There are a lot of inefficiencies in Europe’s energy uses, and during an energy crisis these inefficiencies will have to be tackled no matter the cost. And Europe does have the money to pay for these. Will it be inconvenient? Yes. Will it be devastating, probably not nearly as devastating as the war in Ukraine.

I stand by what I said. Europe really doesn’t want this war, and I bet most people are willing to suffer an energy crisis with the hope that it will stop earlier. And if governments fail to offer remedies during the energy crisis, it is on them and they will suffer in the polls.
I wonder if they also go through all of their backups and purge the PII. I would be willing to bet, they don't.

Whenever I have seen the analysts making hypothesis about a possible coup in Russia, it always was not a popular coup but a 'palace coup' or one orchestrated by some part of siloviki. Popular protests can prevent the state from taking some action, but a full coup seems unlikely, as you state.
It’s not just @-rules, but also other things like functions, where they’ve introduced their own that end up definitely incompatible with CSS and it’s just no end of pain as you try using now-ordinary CSS features and discover that a technical decision made fifteen or more years ago prevents you from doing so. (The deprecated LibSass is significantly CSS-incompatible; Dart Sass, I’m not sure: even a year ago it was still significantly incompatible, but they have definitely landed some important fixes since then so that it’s possible that their long-standing claim on https://sass-lang.com/ that “Sass is completely compatible with all versions of CSS” is no longer a blatant lie.)

I think most of the trouble is actually that Sass accepted the theoretical compatibility breaks on behalf of their users, who didn’t realise they were signing up for this, and end up discouraged when breakages happen and they have to resort to ever weirder and wackier workarounds that should work but somehow break things in some other part of their toolchain, et cetera ad desperationem.

I think it would have been much better if every piece of Sass syntax had used been clearly denoted by the use of the $ symbol ($@ instead of @ for its at-rules, a $ prefix on its functions, &c.), except probably for nesting (though not bare mathematical expressions, I’d force them to be wrapped in $(…)—they’re the worst to find when trying to port away from Sass syntactically rather than compilationally). $ was and is not used by CSS and could probably be agreeably reserved for such tools, and even if not, the unquestionable superiority for tooling (that it makes identifying Sass rather than CSS parts of the stylesheet textually trivial rather than absolutely requiring a compiler that is unlikely to be designed for general tooling use) would even make switching from $ to something else (e.g. a -sass- prefix, which would also be a reasonable choice, though slightly more verbose) genuinely easy.

But of course, that ship has long sailed, and I have no time machine.
20 minutes into the future!
Amazing analysis. The innocents in Ukraine are suffering and dying immediately but the rest of Europe and the world is going to be suffering too as this drags on.

But since I don't know Russian politics, what happens if for several possible reasons Putin is somehow not in charge in a month, or a year?

Who is in the wings and will they continue their crime against Ukraine or will they bring everyone home?
I'd just pick something from the backlog that I don't think is prioritized highly enough, and do that.

I do honestly wonder if there is some sort of campaign against Mozilla and Firefox at this point. It might not be a paid thing or some sort of conspiracy, but just an echo chamber effect that keeps getting more intense over time.

In every single thread it's the same stuff rehashed over and over, and dramatic takes about absolutely trivial changes or people being mad over Mozilla political stuff like them canning a former CEO (which was totally deserved). Very rarely do I ever see a positive comment or thread title, and most of the problems people bring up are basically non-issues for 99% of users or completely made up. There are of course some legitimate issues here and there, but they are the exception.

Every time I open these threads it's pretty confusing, I don't know if I am living in a different reality or what's up. I have had zero issues with Firefox in any way and have no complaints about the direction it's moving in. It has the best Wayland support, has great performance, now isolates each site in an OS level process (which further improves performance on modern machines), gets rapid security updates and builds in 1/4th the time and space that chromium takes. I don't notice anything missing compared to using chromium either.

Them removing Yandex from the default search engine options is barely news worthy. Users who want to use it still can, users who don't will continue not to, there is no real issue here.
Wild cereals were one of many plant food sources in the paleo/meso- lithic world, and not even the most important. More careful analyses reveal families like Vetches and roots (known in the literature as underground storage organs/USOs) that simply don't preserve well in the material record.
Of the two possibilities, it's certainly more likely -- in strictly relative terms.

But Western media seems to put a lot of stock in 'people power'. In this particular case, it's misplaced.

I've been trying to build a consumer side rationing movement for these exact reasons. It won't solve all of the problems but every bit helps, the grid and natural gas system operators can only do so much prep, the increasing purchases of Russian gas products in the last couple of years obviously misjudged the likelihood of Putin doing something like this invasion. As this article points out in painstaking detail, the West as a whole has a real weak spot in our leverage against Russia and we do have the power to try to help.

Neither. It only means that hot and cold storage live right next to each other and pricing is used as a carrot/stick, as well as a signal, so that the two classes tend to stay the same (mainly to prevent cold from getting hot, of course) and a desirable balance is preserved. You could call it manipulative, if you want, but it's more like incentives.

I was under the impression that quite some LNG terminal capacity was already built but was not fully used as Russian gas was cheaper.

This is not novel at all - patent cross-licensing has been using similar language for decades: "Your license to our bag of patents is valid unless you take us to court - then all bets are off". It's a very short jump from patent licensing to Terms of Service, I bet there's a lot of related case law.

It's important to see that there's no real near-distance endgame ("off ramp") for Putin politically; he's in a position from which he cannot retreat.

That makes an economic bet quite a bold one. If Russia's polity were that sensitive to economic fluctuations, the war would have most likely never got started...
Kids can work in food delivery. They're always hiring.
Decades ago, an American company called DAK used to sell a box that picked up on an incoming call (land line, pre-cellular era) and played a short message, usually something like "Please enter your extension number" or "enter security code." If the correct code was not entered, it simply hung up. No ring, no answering machine, no hassle.

The nice thing was, you could pass your phone number out to everyone, but it would only ring for the people you gave the code to. And it was easy to manage, just give your number as "555-1212 ext.382" or whatever. And if the code got spread too widely, you could just change it and give anyone you wanted to hear from the new code.

I keep hoping someone will make an app like that for cellular phones, but most people seem to like saving their spam calls in their voicemail boxes to review them later.
This is not specific to Mao. Even in democracies, the people often vote against their own interests or often compromise on fundamentally important issues for the sake of luxury beliefs or in-group approval.
It's not like this is unique to Mozilla though. Once you get big enough, you end up attracting a critical mass of people who like to rehash the same old grievances. Take any HN thread about Google, for example.
The claim is expected it's just being called out as false basis with explanation of why after your quoted section.

I don't really see how % of users plays into it. I mean it's great the App Store is finally on board with being more strict on blocking user tracking after a decade of business but as long as more than 0 wanted to fix it before and couldn't because of the PWA and/or app sources policies then then policy around not-allowing those is based on protecting the App Store regardless how often privacy is brought up as the reason.

I mean it's great they protect it for the customers that fall towards the default option now don't get me wrong but while nice that doesn't really have anything to do with why all users were forced through the App Store before or after the policy change.

I don't know what Hong Kong is doing, my guess is that many professionals do not want to follow what China is doing, instead, they would like to follow what UK is doing. That's a huge difference. As I said, you cannot hide virus, hide the transmission, especially during zero-covid period, before the mild variant omicron dominated the world.

I don't know how long China can continue this zero-covid policy, that's a question, people are less worried about the virus now, I hear the same from my parents. At least it is working now. Maybe not in Hong Kong.

Just drove down to BC from Fairbanks Alaska and camped along the way. I believe we took highway 2. We stopped at Whitehorse and a hot springs campground. Realistically finding a place along the coast of Alaska would probably greatly your improve chances of surviving the winter. Much much milder winters next to the Ocean. And better availability of food. Though Alaska cities might be targeted.

It is still easier to parse diagramms, than it is to parse text. The real problem seems to be the extra work of creating the diagrams amd keeping them up to date.
The bias is explicit here with the reference to "landleeches", but I'm still curious. Not everyone is able or willing to own a house, so landlords offer their property for rent. Typically the rent is determined by market value (supply and demand). What is the alternative in your mind? Would government fulfill that role? Or do you imagine some utopia where everyone can buy a house?

> The Battle for Baghdad started when they reached the city 3 weeks in, so my original wasn't 100% correct, but it was only off by a day or two.

That's accurate enough for what I meant.

> The American also were much more liberal on their use of airstrikes in urban areas

That's only true because Russia is shooting missiles (including from planes) and artillery, and keeping their planes away from Ukrainian anti-air defenses. Russia has been attacking civilian areas indiscriminately, by all reports, and I remember nothing like that from the US invasion of Iraq (there was hardly time - the US swept in relatively easily). Also, the US used precision guided weapons, which do far less 'unintended' damage.

> Just compare the rag tag group of completely disorganized soldiers barely able to capture Georgia to what is now an actual fighting force.

In reaction to the Georgia invasion, Russia invested in a major reform of their military. It hasn't worked well. Corruption, in particular, is hard to overcome, and non-democracies have a much more difficult time with it.
What you wish for is exactly what HealthKit is. All app access is gated by ACLs that require per-app and per-record-type user approval, and always encrypted when transmitted off of your device. This is a quote from the Apple Health Privacy Policy:

> When your device is locked with a passcode, Touch ID, or Face ID, all of your health and fitness data in the Health app — other than your Medical ID — is encrypted and inaccessible by default. Additionally, if you are using iOS 12 or later and turn on two-factor authentication, Apple will not be able to read your health and activity data synced to iCloud.

The two factor authentication is the mechanism for key distribution such that HealthKit data can be synced and migrated between your own devices, without being decryptable by apple.

It only works if everyone is doing the same, meaning other countries would also eliminating the virus. China still has the borders closed. It is a virus, if you cut the spreading chain, it would stop spreading, it is logic. Lock-down works or not depending on the application of lockdown, if it isn't implemented fully, probably it is better not to have a lockdown (contact tracing, isolated cases with massive tests and so on).

Again, you cannot hide massive breakout of a virus, if you didn't hear it, it didn't happen

There is no reason why your web portal password should have anything to do with the modem’s RADIUS passwords. Frankly, there’s no reason to even have a modem password as you can just identify them based on the line (and an attacker that manages to get physical access to the like can trivially MITM to get the password anyway).

But as another comment mentions, this is DOCSIS which doesn’t use any user-entered passwords for modems. As far as I understand it uses certificates that are built into the modems at manufacture time.
I want a free solution because that's the standard in the space. I shouldn't have to pay money to make a browser with less features have parity with a better developed one.

> How does a proficient reader separate facts from opinions if good writing doesn't disambiguate facts and opinions? Do they just assume?

Facts and opinions are not different qualities of the same claim, but different claims to begin with. “Butter is about 18% water, by weight” is a factual claim and “butter is about as healthy as vegetable oil” is probably opinion because the word “healthy” is, well, often vague and not something people agree on, at least in this context.

> Side note: I went through the original blog post again, and there are lots of examples of Dan Luu doing exactly what I'm writing about, to the point where I'm confused why the original commenter thinks he's not using a different tone based on uncertainty.

Yes, I get a sense that there may be some more cogent complaint that the original commenter has, a complaint which provoked the comment, but I can’t figure out what that complaint is from the comment.

Just that people who complain about tone often have something else to complain about, but tone is more obvious.
