Not all inkjet printers require cartridges, of course. Some have ink tanks you just fill from a bottle. They're a bit more expensive than cartridge inkjets, but still affordable.
If we are talking about a paid service (like slack), not supporting firefox imo means it is a bad product. A service for which one pays for should not force them use a specific browser. This is essentially an argument of not using slack, not firefox.
That's kind of what the Wirecutter was until (irony of ironies) they started "innovating" too.
The other claims you make aside, what does "actively supporting a genocide" mean? I'm genuinely interested.
> The growth mindset is incredible for expanding when your product is in its early ages. But there should be a "sustain" mindset at some point. First you push to grow the market, or your market share. When returns on your efforts become diminishing, you push to improve how much you earn of each customer/each sale. At some point there should be a mindset that our company is worth X dollars, and we should sustain that.

My dad and I ended up doing a local battle bots in the early 2000s based on a lot of this and that pretty much inspired me to help join a founding FRC team in 2007. I swear that type of event started like a Cambrian explosion of robotic events which I know help kick start my career in tech. So glad for people like Marc.

That and my Robots name was "Sponge Bot Titanium Pants" so I had that going for me.

Somewhat related but if you love this stuff a gem of a game that I cannot believe was as good as it was was based on these types of events.

Another alternative to this that seems quite promising is mutable value semantics (e.g. https://research.google/pubs/pub51426/).
Wouldn't this require authors to use semantic tags instead of visual-presentation ones? That is, a tag that specifies that what follows is code instead of just \texttt{}, a tag specifying that what follows is e.g. the title of a book instead of just \textit{}, etc. The TeX engine itself, as it processes the source into a PDF, cannot know what the original author meant.

The experience was surprisingly decent. I'm quite new to coding and this was the most "batteries included and works out of the box" solution I could wrap my head around, didn't try to scam me into paying for a subpar experience and wasn't online.
The money efficiency isn't great - if you had control of the design of the dishwasher, simply having a hot block of concrete inside that you heated when there was spare energy would work out far cheaper.

Concrete costs far fewer $$$'s than batteries do, per kwh of heat stored, it also doesn't require inverters, balancing or safety systems, ad lasts millions of cycles rather than thousands.

I don't get why FF is mainly advertised as a 'privacy first' browser. I think most people first want ease of use and features, not privacy. And for them, Firefox may look like a niche program only for those who are paranoid or have something to hide. But in my opinion even if we don't count privacy, Firefox will still be a serious contender in all other areas and winner in many. At least for me it's not privacy that wins.
I recently bought a LY washing machine that is smart.

I've come across many anti EU persons and there are some broad categories:

- the uninformed, they have no idea about how the EU came about or what it does, but they're against it anyway

- the people on the receiving end of the regulations (anti-trust, advertisers, marketeers, bankers, data sellers etc). They have a very good idea about what it does, but it interferes with their preferred way of getting to more cash.

- the people that are nostalgic and that remember their country as it was 50 years ago and would like to go back there. They believe that because the EU happened to coincide with the downslide of their country that the two are related. What they usually forget is that without the EU that downslide would have been much worse.

- the people who genuinely believe that 'smaller is better' when it comes to politics and who tend to miss the wood for the trees: that in politics smaller is only better when you are very wealthy and can set your own rules. Think Switzerland. Everybody else will have a less privileged position and if they find themselves up against the giants of the world for whatever reason suddenly 'small' translates to 'weak'. In unity there is some strength so it makes sense for smaller countries to join in a larger unit, if only to curb the inevitable infighting (and the local wars that come with those).

I've yet to come across someone who actually spent some time figuring out what the EU actually does who remained against it. There is a lot of valid criticism against the EU bureaucrats: lots of them are grifters and there is quite a bit of corruption. But it is much worse in other places and on balance I'll take the grifters because I realize that politics as such is a grift of sorts, but it is inevitable, like taxes are.

Until we manage to change human nature no political system will be perfect. But given that the EU tends to stand up for the little guy and that they are powerful enough to make a difference but not so powerful enough that they are getting drunk on that power I'm ok with it.

I mostly agree with you, but I wonder if this view is a little simplistic.

Where a competitive marketplace exists I don't see ads (especially ads purchased by big incumbent vendors) adding any value: it would be better overall if competitors spent that money improving the product (or service) rather than trying to persuade customers to purchase a less-good product (measuring "good" as value/cost, since there is a place for lower quality but lower cost options).

But I do think there might be an economic argument in favour of at least some advertising to bring awareness of new market entrants, and especially of new categories of product/service. (One counterargument might be that this should properly be the role of journalists, and I agree that in an ideal world it would be. But the current dismal quality of the mainstream media suggests that economic incentives may actively hinder having ideal journalism…)
>people will start to buy share fractions, with all the shit and overhead that'll bring.

Which is to say, very little overhead
Bums exist, so someone must have!
Not to minimize your argument because at the core i entirely agree. I have come to understand that most of the reasons for the growth in so many of our beloved tech come from who is at the helm, and more specifically their personality types. Dominantly open-minded and creative people are extremely valuable in so many edge cases but when you have a group dominated by them nothing is stable. The culture has by now stabilized to reward and seek their input so we are all circling the drain waiting for the next best thing.

This is not to say low-creative types make a better company. I've worked with completely different sets and it makes for polar opposites. What I find interesting is that companies/groups tend to cluster leaning towards ones which push for innovation or either shun it, again determined by their core member personality makeup. I wish there was some more tendancy for them to balance out somewhat, but it is definatey a phenomenon.

When DDR SDRAM came out a magazine illustrated their article with light pulses traveling between the bricks and the core. From my electronics classes it was clear to me that the line would be either up or down, and these pulses were just for illustration. What would an illustrator know about electronics, right?

The article then calculated how many bits must be in-flight on the board to achieve the higher data rate given the bus width and the distance :-)
It's Firefoxs fault that Chromium took over, Firefox just had to copy what Google did with Chrome (which is make a version that is easily integrated in other applications). It had years to do so, and did not. I am not blaming Firefox for the rise in Chrome, but I am blaming them for the rise in Chromium. They have a solid alternative and didn't care enough to capitalize on it. Who knows in another timeline with changes it's possible Firefox Gecko rained supreme in the embeddable space.

So let's say you're a bunch of ex-Opera employees who want to start a new browser, are you going to write an entire browser engine yourself? No who has time and money to pay hundreds of developers for years just to catch up. You're going to use a off the shelf version and modify it.

Can you use Firefox? No, good luck integrating it into anything, it's extremely difficult. Firefox actively suggests not trying to embed it.

Can you use Chrome/Chromium? Yes it's easy and readily available SDK that even has thousands of implementation examples.

Can you use Webkit? Yes you can, but it's only managed by Apple and a select group of smaller companies, you are at the mercy of Apple. It also has poor support in some areas.

So you end up going through pros and cons and Chromium is the result. It's not the result of a bunch of Google loving companies, it's just pure developer economics. It gives you the best possible start.
I worked with both for years and one of the reason who made me switch from Chrome to Firefox between 2016-2018 was the devtools. I found the Firefox's ones were way better and Mozilla implemented new features way faster than Google for some reasons.
If there ever was an anti-trust argument to be made against Google this is it. You don't want a dominant search company, dominant advertiser and a browser vendor to be the same entity (or closely related).

At the same time: this also goes for Microsoft/Edge.
It's glob and/or bsd_glob from the underlying C stdlib. Another interesting example of things the stdlib glob can do:

#!/usr/bin/perl
# perl since it's an easy way to use an arbitrary function from stdlib

for (bsd_glob("{Hello,Hi} {world,everyone}...a {demo,example}")) {
print($_."\n");
}

Q* – Clues to the Puzzle? [video]
There is a similar phenomenon going on with home appliances. Since the reliability of most all appliances has declined over the last decade or so (based on talking to repair people and from what I read from self-described repair experts on r/HVAC, so grain of salt) the advice on what appliance to buy is something like: buy the appliance with the fewest features you can get away with (oh and avoid the 2-3 brands that particularly have trouble).

I think the situation with printers and appliances share a common cause, the financialization of firms that is part of “late-stage” capitalism as evidenced by the shift between C-M-C transactions to M-C-M, and now M-M’ (see https://www.sparknotes.com/philosophy/daskapital/section2/).

> Outsourcing the work to a country with low wages. Even nowadays you can get highly skilled workers for like $50 a month in some African countries.

But this is not the norm. In order for company X to hire people from a different country, it is necessary that:

- company X hires contractors/freelancers. The vast majority of people out there in IT work as employees, not as contractors

- company X needs a branch in that country. This is rare

- company X hires in that country via an intermediary company. Not as rare, but usually it's not worth it

Not even in Europe countries hire people from other countries that easily. It's more common now after covid, yes, but it's definitely not "let's hire from country X developers 50% cheaper!"

Even when chrome was new, it was known that it included heavy tracking by google. I briefly checked out iron back in the day, a chromium version without google tracking. But I realised that even just opening the settings resulted in requests to google (for some spelling library if I remember correctly). So obviously it was difficult to remove all the tracking, and it was clear that it would be difficult to keep removing it in all versions.
Also it was clear already back then that google would try to capture as much of the browser market as possible, to control the browser, many online services, and just get the power to do whatever it wants. Now they are pushing hard for DRM in the browser, to take power away from the user.
Firefox is definitely not perfect, but back in 2008 it was obvious that we, the users, should not support chrome. So I stayed with firefox, and don't need to swtich back now.

The car analogy doesn't quite work that way.

Disliking one browser's UI/UX over another is like trying to drive two different cars: one with a touch screen console and another one with an analog console. There are genuine reasons to want one over the other and it will color how you use it day to day.

> his year our team is hiring for 3 new people instead of 4

Na. We'll be able to do more with less... but the amount of work to be needed will increase, hence more people will be needed as well. Same old story. Compilers didn't get massive people fired.
Not Innovating only works when the entire industry has reached a certain point. Printers obviously have, the innovation that is happening sucks, and the market is likely retracting as more things move digital only.

But if you look at, say, fashion, it's clear that the market still needs "innovation" (by that I mean new fashions, new trends, etc). If you stop doing this, you don't get the next generation, and your customers slowly age out and your market shrinks. Forget about growth, de-growth is literally unsustainable, and businesses need to be sustainable.

Identifying whether the market needs the innovation or not is hard. Smartphones are in a weird place right now where each generation feels a little less convincing, and people are starting to talk about whether innovation is needed. We're not quite seeing the rise of "Brother" like products yet, but we are seeing an increased focus on longevity which is likely an early indicator.
I've tweaked the wording - thanks again!

Ask HN: How Do You Decide Between Two Job Offers?
Offer 1:
A 3 year government contract at fairly a low stress job, on-site, with a salary of $187.5

Pros:
* After the 3 year contract comes to an end, I might get a 37 year contract, with a substantial salary increase.
* After 40 years, I can safely retire. This is the only way to retire in my country.

Cons:
- Terrible salary for the first 3 years even by my country's standards this is a joke, but, people choose this option for the years of experience not the salary.

Offer 2:
A 2 year contract at a foreign Software Development agency, working as a frontend developer, fully remote, with a salary of $1200 (Monthly).

Pros:
* Great salary!

Cons:
* Stressful
* No retirement option

> Personally I'm still stuck in this era. Light background is a must. I never use dark mode on anything. I genuinely don't understand the kids...

Kid here (34). My understanding is our generation grew up spending much more time looking at a screen in general. Gaming, socializing, following news, doing work, doing homework, talking to parents, talking to partner(s), reading books, painting, sculpting, paying taxes, managing finances, applying jobs, applying for visas... The list is too long to fit here. Participating in society demands more screen time than ever.

Dark mode makes screens blend with the environment better by emitting light where only needed. Since we can't reduce our screen time without any compromise, we try to optimize with the dials we are left with, in this case, pixel brightness.
There's a lot we can learn from rarely heard about disasters that were avoided
