It definitely does with me. I used Edge when I was using Windows and I liked it!

I went back to Windows after almost 2 years for work and MS has managed to bloat it too. Don't understand why I need a Math solver. Edge bar is annoying. Favorites and bookmarks are 2 separate things?

I turned them all off obviously but defaults matter.
Full 64 bit would very likely need to be boxed (heap allocated). I assume bigint is not boxed up to 40-something bits and instead stored as NaN[0]. Once you start boxing, the additional few instructions to handle things above 64 bit are probably not that important, so they may as well be generic.

It's pop culture. Regurgitation is the very essence of it.
This also explains why the value of catalogs has gone through the roof.

This is evident by the huge valuations of the majors eg Universal going public, indie publishers such as Reservoir and Hipgnosis, and artist and writer catalogs eg Queen, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Paul Simon, etc. A few times a year I will read about a writer/artist catalog getting sold for $100M. Except for maybe a death like Whitney or MJ, that never happened 10 years ago.
I’m an atheist but this argument is weak: Christianity explicitly breaks with the Old Testament and Christians of the non-fascist persuasion would non-unreasonably say that the problem is the people who are trying to make laws based on their religion (which Jesus explicitly told his followers not to do) and especially based on the superseded Israelite law.
Yes, but unlikely what's happening here. I assume incompetence not malice on PP's part. That doesn't excuse this privacy leak. My point is that this isn't all on PP. I consider Google and FB malicious in sharing data in their zeal for dollars. I consider PP incompetent in protecting privacy in its marketing efforts, which yes, also needs dollars, but it's a non-profit and really not in its interests to share this information.
Just for tree style tabs, firefox is worth it
I assure you, if you had developed against firefox first, you would have found "performance bugs" on chrome.

At what point did he leak the domain name? How does everyone know it's binance.ca?
For those thinking "no way..." - I have known people who believed this exact thing.

Also, I've known people who won't get a drivers license because "the government wants your face", but spend all their time on Facebook.
Some employees have contracts.

My workplace doesn't have them except for employees that are part of bargaining units (ie, the ones represented by unions). Sadly, I am not one of these; my employment is contract-free.
Sound about right. But still, you remembered that quote somehow.

Same here. Plus, I saw today that firefox doesn't support the file API while Chrome, Safari and Edge do.

If you look at the usage numbers, it just makes no sense to support this browser anymore.
Separate CSS has the advantage that it can get cached, so you ideally only transfer it once.

Bookmarks and tabs serve different use cases.

The former don't preserve login state (and site state in general) or scroll position, navigating between them requires an internet connection and often uses significant data (important when working from a metered and/or unreliable connection like on a train or plane), just to name a few differences.

That is, IMO, is spot on and I cannot upvote you enough. In addition to that it is a question of accessibility. In the old times, let’s say in the 90s you discovered an obscure piece of music from 70s. Good luck going to a CD or vinyl store and digging it up. Now the whole discography of that artist is on your fingertips.
As someone working with an extremely large Python codebase, early on we made the call to never allow dictionaries as arguments to functions (with exceptions for if the dictionary is truly arbitrary and only gets logged/persisted for human reading). We rely heavily on type annotations and dataclasses. Type system weaknesses aside, the system is rather maintainable despite its size, complexity, and domain.
You can choose to concern or not concern yourself with music, fiction, other forms of cultural expression, and how often. And people do that, according to their inclinations. But with food you do not have that choice, you have to eat, and you have to do it more or less daily. It’s an imposition rather than a free choice based on your interests.

Suppose you’d have to read (say) 50 pages of fiction each day or else you will die. Maybe that wouldn’t be so great, even if you do enjoy fiction from time to time?
HTML can be cached too, with the right headers.

True in theory but you also have to consider most writers are just freelance and therefore have zero pull with the publisher.
I used to use firefox exclusively.

But they have been on a road of adding increasinly user hostile "features" to the browser that I just can't take.

I snapped when they implemented automatic updates. I've never been so pissed at a piece of software than I have been at firefox when I hit Ctrl-T and the damn thing refuses to work until I restart it. And for a long time, it wouldn't even restart, it just exited.

While I'd prefer to install updates manually through apt (like every other piece of software on my laptop), if they are going to be so patronizing that they won't allow that, they need to fix they update process to not require a restart. Until that happens I'll use chromium.
I appreciate so much eating alone in the calm, but I'm not asocial. To me it's more respectful for the food, because you can focus on it fully, chew and not talk, digest well, respect more your own rhythm and needs. Eating shouldn't be something recreative
The compensation model for pre-RSU startups is broken right now. The combination of late exits, short exercise windows, and heavy taxes on illiquid gains, means you can wind up deeply in the red as often as in the black.

In my last job search all the startup founders whined about not being able to keep up with big company comp, but I can't justify giving up X00,000 RSU's for the real possibility of going deeply into debt. The reward structure needs to change so there's good chances of being rewarded.

It's a shame. I love working in these tiny startups, but I can no longer justify it.
Unexpected good music can be quite fun.

I found a pretty good band while giving advice to a coworker on how to explain away inappropriate language at work if someone complained to HR.

The coworker was putting together a new workstation for someone, and said "I need a network card". The person at the next desk said that they had an extra and tried to hand it to the guy building the workstation.

He said "I don't want your sloppy seconds". Then he remembered the origins of the term "sloppy seconds" [1] and wondered if he's allowed to say that at work.

I overheard and told him, "Don't worry. If someone complains just say you were talking about the band. Every sexual term and phrase has a band named after it somewhere. Even if HR tries to check, you can just say it was a band you heard at a bar when you were in college".

Naturally I then Googled "sloppy seconds band" and sure enough, there is a band by that name and the first Google hit is a Wikipedia article about them [2].

The first two paragraphs of that article say:

> Sloppy Seconds is an American, Ramones-influenced punk band sometimes referred to as a junk rock band from Indianapolis, Indiana, United States, that started in 1984. They gained notoriety in the underground punk scene with gritty and controversial songs like "Come Back, Traci," "I Don't Want to be a Homosexual", "Jani is a Nazi", "I Want 'em Dead" and "So Fucked Up."

> The band's unusual and controversial lyrics encompass pornography, classic horror movies, classic television shows, comic books, alcohol, being fat, and getting drunk.

After that second paragraph I had to check if they were on Spotify and they were. I listened to a few of their albums the rest of the day and sure enough, there were songs on all those things mentioned in that second paragraph, some of them quite good.

There are things like the Webb telescope, which happen because of all of advanced civilization across the globe collaborating. We need that, and it's an inspiring and beautiful thing to see that collaboration come together and advance us a species.

But — whatever problems one might have with this article — it seems pretty obvious that we're experiencing an extreme lack of resiliency in our system.

It occurred to me back in early 2020: resiliency begins in the home. Do you have enough to take care of your family in a disaster? If you do, that helps take the load off first responders, so they can help the most vulnerable. Is your local community strong and self-sufficient? That's another buffer. And so on.

It seems that we've sacrificed buffers at all levels, seeing opportunities instead to maximize profit wherever possible. At the same time we've woven a breathtakingly complex web, making everything correlated with everything else. Anyone who's ever spent time thinking about complex systems should be concerned.
Being both immigrant and experienced developer myself,
I would consider each individual case independently.

Knowing how crucial is a team cohesion for any serious effort in such a complex area as software engineering - i can understand (even if not support as a candidate) this preference most of the time.

Guess why — because the communication side is exactly what makes a candidate better for the job than someone else with totally different cultural background.

And from my experience it rarely has to do anything with skin color, religion or anything outside communication realm (otherwise I obviously don’t support it).
No I am totally against it. I was qualifying the statement because I couldn't speak to the mindset of someone trapped in that downward spiral.

Religion has had effects in either direction, I wouldn't make any definitive claim on its overall impact. I just think it has a place.
How does that make the website better though?

Hey HN! And welcome to a hill I'm willing to die on.

I've been teaching myself basic HTML/JS/CSS to begin my webdev journey and this is the first project I've put together.

It was recommended to me to make a project I'm passionate about so that I'm motivated to keep learning and get something real out there.

Well here it is: SkyrimOnMacWhen.com!

Its been far too long since Skyrim came out for there to be no release for the Mac. We've had ports for everything! PS3/4/5 Xbox360/One/XS, hell even Alexa got a port...

As a Mac user who has to carry around a laptop for work anyway, it would be great to have a port to macOS, as their target base is at least as big as some of the other ports that got attention.

--------

Quick FAQ:

* Why did you choose Potential User Base as a metric, why not <X>?

I thought about it for exactly 30 seconds and made a choice. This is more effort than Bethesda Softworks put in to making Skyrim on the Mac

* Why did you use <Y> as a data source, or choose <Z> timeframe? I think <A>, <B>, or <C> would be better

It turns out its _really_ hard to find true sales data for various consoles, PCs, etc. At least for free, via Google. If you have a good source, please lmk.

* Why does your CSS look so bad?

I'm so bad at design thinking I could screw up a stick figure

* Why didnt you use <X> technology to make your site?

I started learning web dev like two weeks ago, between a full time job and a sub par social life I'm trying to keep going. I havent had time to learn anything else.

* Who hurt you..?

A lot of people, but Bethesda Softworks mostly
For me, it seems with the latest update of firefox, some textures are not rendered properly. All works fine in the other browsers.

Before that, some other update gave issues with some certificate.

Looking at all the issues this browser causes, and the very low usage, I'm not spending time tracking down what is going wrong.

Safari on iOS is such another problem child, but used high enough to justify the time to investigate and fix.

This article made me type "most popular albums 2022" into Google.

Funny: When you click on the albums on the top of the page, there always is a YouTube link that brings you to music.youtube.com where you can listen to the whole album without any fuzz.

Why would anyond still buy this music if you can listen to it for free?

So far, I did not like any of the albums though...

I grew up in a small town and spent a lot of time driving through cows > people counties through college and young adulthood - every visit back to my parents meant seeing lots of cattle on the way.

At grocery stores I would see packaging for “grass-fed beef” or “free-range” and honestly I thought it was like a joke that farmers were pulling on city people, like “gormet hand-picked potatoes” or “premium plastic” or something. What else would cows eat?? I’d probably seen a hundred thousand cows in my life, always in herds roaming around vast pastures. Of course they eat grass.

Then I moved to California, and one day had occasion to drive from SF to LA. North of Bakersfield I encountered the most profound stink I’ve ever smelled while driving, and eventually I saw the source: industrial operations with enormous numbers of cattle in fenced pens shoulder to shoulder so they could hardly move.

I spent the next ten minutes slack-jawed, reconsidering my life experience.
I worked for a place once that was essentially a US satellite office of a Chinese company, although it was technically registered as a US company. I'd guess roughly 75% of the company were Chinese. We had a "meetings should be in English only" rule to benefit the US minority who were not multi-lingual. The English proficiency of the Chinese guys ranged from "passable" to "perfectly fluent". It was not always easy to discuss technical concepts or project requirements using English-only, with the majority of the team translating in their heads in real time. So the English-only rule kind of slowed everyone down, for the benefit of diversity. It was a trade-off the company deliberately made with eyes open.

To help this, there was a norm where, if something needed to get done quicker or some technical point was not getting across, the Chinese eng manager would say "OK, we are going to speak Chinese for a minute" and the team would deliberate some point in their native language. Then, when it was resolved, we'd continue on in English with the better English-speakers summarizing. This seemed to work pretty well, and was not awkward for anyone. It allowed the majority-Chinese team to contribute as full team-members regardless of their English proficiency, and also allowed the monolingual US minority to contribute equally.

For OP, it might be good to suggest leadership sits down and figures out good "rules of the road" for language use in the office, and to make sure they enforce them.

I'm having a hard time reconciling a complaint about a lack of diversity with the notion that the problem is rooted in certain members of a team speaking languages other than English. Is the only allowable monoculture the Anglo one?

update: to the person asking how it is helpful to have team members speaking different languages: I don't know. It's a different question. We started with the premise that the team should be multiethnic, and the way it shakes out is that that often means being multilingual. We can ask that question, but it changes the whole thing. That's the problem with these topics.

That is a legend born at the time USB-mini-B was replaced with USB-micro-B. For what it's worth, typical USB-mini-B has a particularly bad spring design. "Spring" is just a protrusion stamped out from a thin flat sheet of regular mild steel. Same sheet that is making bulk of the receptacle.

One does not necessarily have to make springs that are quite as epicly bad, and indeed both typical USB-C connector, and lightning receptacle, avoid that pitfall.

People mostly play old and familiar content likely because it's totally exhausting now to find favorable new content.

Too many of my older favorite artists like Tracy Chapman don't even release music any more because of the lack of reward and respect involved in releasing music now, it's disheartening to post your hard work and not get any notable views, especially when they're a grammy winner. Even notable musicians from the past don't get views now, not because the music isn't good, they don't get views because often the music isn't "TikTok Clip Worthy".

If TikTok only had a tool to scroll through songs (music videos), with a much better method of preventing spam, playing everything uploaded fairly, and that was better at preventing repetitive plays, that's likely what would make new music discovery far far easier for everyone.
Thanks for clarifying. In that case it sounds like the problem likely isn’t a lack of diverse candidates, unless your team lead is sourcing candidates and hiring from their personal network (the demographics of an individual’s personal network often heavily “favor”, perhaps unintentionally, that person’s gender/ethnicity/language).

If you’re seeing overt discrimination, you may want to consider raising it to management anonymously if your company is large enough (or non-anonymously if you’re accepting that there could be a negative knee jerk reaction from others hearing your concerns)

The other issue, specifically in Forths, is that it's not immediately obvious WHEN an argument is processed.

For example, you could have a construct such:

( read first block from FILE.SCR )
OPEN FILE.SCR 1 BLOCK

But if you try to define a word to do that:

: get-block OPEN FILE.SCR 1 BLOCK ;

You will find the second one doesn't work because OPEN is special, reading from the input stream for the filename at RUN TIME, not COMPILE time.

The OPEN command is more suited to the immediate "shell" experience, than for use in code. But it's not obvious, certainly not immediately apparent at first sight. Need to dig into the documentation is understand the difference.
There is tab search (and history, and bookmarks for that matter) from the address bar (i.e. typing `% foo` will search all tabs for `foo`). I don't know if it's turned on by default, but you can set it up from “Search shortcuts” settings section.
