I wasn't happy when they moved the "Close tabs to the right" menu option into a submenu and then not have that configurable. It's an important feature for me. I now need to install an add-on to get the desired behavior. Which just seems a bit silly to me. For the rest it's wonderful.
Stock traders already use ML models. "Replacing traders with ML models" means "making the job 'trader' into a job that develops ML models, rather than more traditional things like doing research on companies (or whatever)." My understanding is that this transition basically already happened over the course of the last two decades or so.
What are those ways? Do they also allow for large sensors and warheads?
It might be just them refusing to look into it and covering their asses, because they don't care if there is an unnecessary cookie banner.

But to be fair the stories I have heard were something along the lines of: a freelancer making a website for a local restaurant and being unable to convince the restaurant owner, because the owner's nephew said that the cookie banner must be there.

There’s a distinct lack of Neil Postman in this HN comment section. given the arguments being made in favor of YouTube here, his most relevant retort would be “educational television doesn’t teach children to love learning, it teaches them to love television.”

Funnily enough, I am able to publish ML papers - but John Carmack isn't. I wonder why. I would also like to learn more about all the computer graphics algorithms Carmack has invented before I trust him to invent AGI.

Here is one example of a person I am familiar with - Math Olympiad bronze medalist. Princeton PhD in ML Theory. AI researcher in Google.

Sadly enough, nobody seems to care about his opinion on AGI but we have 1000s of people hanging off Carmacks words because he built Wolf3D and Doom.

I love Firefox too but this is a really weird post.

The OP is clearly having performance issues with Chrome presumably due to extensions interfering or something else. I can guarantee you that Google makes sure Gmail loads at least as fast in Chrome as in Firefox.

Chrome is customizable too (panes you can open/close), Chrome extensions are also thriving, and Chrome was the one who invented the "clean look", same as Firefox invented tabs.

This post just feels like weird marketing. There's nothing actually substantive about it. It doesn't feel like it belongs on HN.
Can you show us how did you inspect Brave's financials ?
What the OG commenter meant (as I read it) was that the page was slow in FF solely because the developer didn’t test the page in FF.

It does in no way imply that FF is worse than Chrome, but it does imply that (some) web developers are lazy.

Same problem on Chrome (mac M1). For weird positions I can understand as the computer must still interpret the 2D dots in the small screen to 3D coordinates, but even when I just show my hand fingers spread, palm facing the camera, the small image is stable and the 3D image glitches quite profoundly.
Don’t know about that. Brexit only created yet another tax/regulatory domain that companies have to negotiate.
Tree Style Tabs is absolutely vital to me, I don't understand how people can live without that extension.

The other thing I use a lot is firefox's readability builtin (it's not an extension), which removes all the cruft and *walls from websites and makes them... readable in one click.

These two together are killer apps for me. I might consider switching to another browser (firefox isn't exactly the paragon of virtue it used to be either anymore), but the new browser would need to have these two features.
Yes, it has, and it's always trending towards more complexity.

There's always hope for things to reverse course and get better. Ruby on Rails was a moment like this in web development history. Rails came at a time when things were unnecessarily complex and introduced a much simpler way, which people accepted. Rails' influence extended far beyond Rubyists and introduced design patterns that became part of web frameworks in every language.

Rails had a bigger impact than anyone cwould have anticipated from a quirky new framework in an unknown academic language at that stage in the industry's maturation. Computer scientists had expected that by 2000 every task in software development would be catalogued and assigned a standard labor estimate like in auto repair. It was highly improbable that an entirely new paradigm would take hold after that. I think part of this was because of the technical ingenuity of the solution, part of it was because of the charm and personality of the Ruby community, and part of it was synchronicity with other movements like Web 2.0 and Agile.

It takes leaders with strong personalities who can attract people and present new ideas in a way that people will accept. They also have to have insight into what people actually need in their time and willing to compromise.

> Some really cool observations in first 30 mins of using it :

> 1. It opens websites really quickly, much faster than Chrome

This is the same thing everyone says whatever new browser they move to. Once some one hoards 100 tabs it becomes slow.

(Again,I am not against firefox or chrome - just meaning that everything is quick initially - somehow becomes slow in a few weeks)

Yes. Wondering why we're not trying to instead create artificial-cockroach-brain (or just artificial Hydra?). Perhaps that's more on the Biology side of the equation? But then again, that may be the biggest surprise of all to Carmack, that the actual AGI breakthroughs come from biologists and not computer nerds.
Ask HN: Sublime Text users, what plugins are you using?
Carmack is clearly a brilliant guy, but it feels like he's fallen into the trap of overfitting on his previous successes and believing they generalise into other domains. No doubt his experience and innovations in computer graphics gives him a good insight into problems in vision, etc. but I don't see anything particularly original or orthogonal in what he's saying with regards to "general AI".
Sure but why are we paying someone like Jamie Dimon or Warren Buffett millions and billions of dollars when they could just be an AI that only needs a few dollars of electricity a day.

Also why can't an AI develop AI models for stock trading? What's really left for the 'job' of the ML model creator, will it just be to press the 'Go' button and walk away...

MQTT-over-websocket does exist (https://github.com/mqttjs/MQTT.js), and most MQTT brokers support it (Mosquito, AmazonMQ etc.). You're right about the compaction - MQTT doesn't have anything in it's protocol about compaction, and I don't know of any brokers that implement it. Having said that, you could use an MQTT-kafka bridge.

Something like Mosquito + https://github.com/nodefluent/mqtt-to-kafka-bridge + Redpanda in a docker image would work, though obv. this might be a bit overkill for most. Having said that, it does open many new avenues for interaction at scale. You pays your money...

In fact, ListenBrainz (partner project to MusicBrainz) is doing some stuff similar to what you mention about listening histories. We're using the data to generate similarity based on when songs are listened to each other in "listening sessions" along with other songs.

Even more argument for big tech corps that monopolize people's lives and businesses getting regulated.
Had similar issue in recent past, and was able to get it solved via the Discord channel. From what I understood is that it requires a manual over-ride on R2/ Workers because the thing that checks for the 2.8 TOS violation is not able to see the difference between Workers/ R2 and the standard CDN service.

If you go to the R2 Discord channel you see this happening every other week.

What is also kinda annoying is customers can't create support tickets because it requires a plan. Which imo is bad given these customers pay for R2 and often have a ton of data on it (which is why the 2.8 gets hit...).

Hopefully you can get this fixed permanently (for all customers at once, and not case-by-case).
Did you try to clean up Firefox (i.e. remove the whole Firefox profile on the disk)?
I also don't see how this approach can possibly survive the upcoming EU platform regulation. In the context of the DMA, "You can use third-party app stores only if you deactivate account takeover protections" seems like a non-starter.

Hey you finally arrived at the answer: Apple's solution is Apples' solution, not a standard. Google's solution is the industry, internationally accepted standard and no quotes are needed around that statement. The same standards bodies that formalized SMS did the same with RCS. Everyone except Apple is on board.

You can try all you want to spin this as Apple being in the right, but it's Apple vs everybody on this one.
Right but I don't want to risk someone thinking I'm lying, if it comes with such a cost to me, and ignoring the perceived problem has no cost to me whatsoever (just potentially to the observed child if, I'm right) - unless it was so shocking that it was both deeply affecting and also surely obviously not a lie anyway.

I built an extension to inject your Mastodon timeline into Twitter[0], recently added Firefox support as well. Especially useful as a stop gap in light of Twitter getting rid of their API access and hopefully will be a first step for many to transitioning to Mastodon.

Having written Rust professionally for a number of years, this didn't happen too much. Where it did it was stuff like "yeah you need to Box the thing today", which... did not matter, we just did that and moved on.

> It can ever so slightly give one the impression that the rust community has decided that the language is mature and the only thing missing is faster compile times.

That is generally my feeling about Rust. There are a few areas where I'd like to see things get wrapped up (async traits, which are being actively worked on) but otherwise everything feels like a bonus. In terms of things that made Rust difficult to use, yeah, compile times were probably the number one.

Yeah it can be annoying depending on if the glass is half full or half empty YMMV. Myself I know such sites won't waste my bandwidth loading a script that won't really run if it doesn't get what it wants, I won't sit there for twenty or thirty seconds while some background thing pretends to do something, they (the site) won't get to scape the IP, not any stats that I was interested in whatever it was, nor get to reach for the cookie jar ... they don't win. There's usually more agreeable sites but not always. Despite that, it really puts a smile on my face.

I still think that treating the problem as screen time is the wrong approach. It is too low resolution. What happens on the screen matters. Many parents end up using screen time as a very blunt tool because we simply lack better tools.

But curating content as a family is close to unfeasible because it goes against sponsored algorithmic curation to which others are still exposed and once a kid is socialized they face the problem of peer pressure.

Even if you have a private Jellyfin server that automatically downloads approved fresh content, kids will still complain they do not have access to Youtube like other kids. And now you have become an antagonist. A rule maker to be subverted.

I find that caring parents are put in an impossible position of at the same time trying to maintain trust and also be a curator and censor.

Firefox has been my main browser for a long time.

Also regulators in on some of Twitters core markets (EU and US) are not to fond of ginormous Techconglomerates at the moment and might have a few words to say about that.
