Does Firefox download information about every ad that advertisers have paid for, and then match against local data to decide which ad to serve?

If not, when it queries to find out which ads to serve, what data does is sent with that query (or prior to that query)?

> SO moderators don't even read your questions anymore before closing them for a random reason

Note that most of these are just regular people with close-to-vote powers, not elected or appointed moderators with special powers.

I think one major problem is that there is an entire class of people who rarely or never ask or answer questions, or even comment, and all they do is "moderate" the site by closing questions. Literally all they do. Some of these have extremely specific and narrow views on how the site "should" be. I absolutely hate it: who the hell are you? You're not even using the core function of the site. Fuck off trying to tell me how I "ought" to be using it. I don't want to gatekeep who is or isn't "part of the community", but people gatekeeping how the site can be used without actually using the site is just absolutely toxic.

There are a number of other issues as well. I can go on for a long time. But to be honest I no longer care: the site has been taken over by nihilistic capitalists who care not one iota about any aspect of the site other than the ability to earn a buck (previously it was a commercial enterprise as well, sure, but it wasn't 100% about earning a buck and many in leadership positions genuinely cared about "doing right by our community" as well). And that is probably just as much of a reason for the decline of Stack Overflow as anything else.
The cynic in me thinks these kids were recruited as "useful idiots." Musk has shown he is capable of recruiting competent people, but it's pretty clear these aren't them. History has shown that it's a lot easier to radicalize and weaponize incompetent young adults whose self-image has been built up in an environment of privilege. Without personal accountability, it's a lot easier to be angry at the world for denying you the success everyone tells you that you deserve.

> We need politics out of here

DOGE is a creature of Silicon Valley. Paul Graham spends his time now opining on woke [1]. One can escape base partisanship. But the political economy makes any attempt to escape politics pretend.

[1] https://paulgraham.com/woke.html
Because they thought(incorrectly) that we can "tame" russian threat by having a really good economic relationship with them. Turns out, they don't care, Putin will raze his entire country to the ground and kill hundreds of thousands of his men just to say he tried to bring the Soviet Union back.
None of them solve the problems associated with the general category of race conditions. You can trivially create live/dead locks with channel/message-passing, and rust only prevents data races, though ownership is definitely a step in the right direction.

(Well, go is not even memory safe under data races!)

Also, Java is one of the languages where you can just add `synchronized` as part of the method signature, and while this definitely doesn't solve the problem, I don't think "divorced from the data" is accurate.
I'm just curious if it is possible that some former/current employees in Mozilla can just form an org, say they will maintain a fork of Firefox, and accept donation from the users that were pissed and maybe apply for some funding from EU NGI?

It's all cool, no worries.

I think what's least clear about your framing is how and why e.g. someone wanting to remain neutral/peaceful can ONLY imply their opinion is "B should surrender so A can win" or similar type statements. Thoughts like "if you don't support B then you must hope A wins" or "If you want peace it means giving A what it wants" are not full arguments in themselves, they are just the claims repeated.

For example, there are certainly those who want Ukraine to just surrender some of its land for peace (the POTUS seeming to be one). That by itself does not explain they MUST be supporting Russia, it just opens the door for such a possibility. Some along these lines of wanting peace/surrender don't support Russia but don't think there'd be anything of Ukraine left at all if the war were to escalate further. Others of completely different opinion believe de-escalation over time towards peace talks will lead to better and better "A and B returning things to the way they were" type results given enough time - but only if the pressure/interest/escalation/pile-on is lowered instead of raised. Yet others have different takes on why/how to be neutral/peaceful and what they think it will end with. And, of course, some genuinely don't support Ukraine because they view the situation as a risk themselves - we just can't jump to that being the only possibility without more reasoning for the rest first.

Now I'm not here to try and argue you should agree with these arguments or that if you respond to just the above points you've now countered the full spectrum of opposing opinion by any stretch of the measure. The only reason I bring these examples up is to show how repeating the conclusion "being neutral is only supporting the attacker" isn't as much providing a point as conveying your current stance. To argue points around it is to try to give credence to why that is the only (or most) correct conclusion and approach and where the other opposing ideas all fell short.

When the depth of consideration of counter-arguments instead comes across as "the other side are just bullshit cowards" or "it's just clear" the best you can hope for is a lot of "ooh-rah" for people who already agreed and a coinciding complete write off from those who disagreed.

As an addendum: Folks (not necessarily you, people like to AI summarize comment history) sometimes take what I say to mean I personally don't support Ukraine or that I explicitly support Trump's actions around this or whatever else they come up with. I personally support Ukraine to fully return to its pre-war borders, disavow most of the government of Russia's actions, and am severely disappointed with Trump's treatment of Zelensky (bringing things back to the original thread). I just have relatively strong opinions about how tone of conversation can be overall damaging for a ideology regardless of the intent or literal stance.
The tertiary definition of "diplomatic" is "employing tact and conciliation especially in situations of stress". That means acting calmly and rationally in the types of insane situations that you're describing.

Nobody is saying Zelensky and Ukraine should be happy with where they've ended up. War is terrible and the desire for revenge or retribution will never subside. Diplomacy is putting aside that raw emotion to get the best deal you can, working with the situation that you have.

For them to come to USA to sign an agreement, renege, demand more, and create a spectacle in front of the cameras, is incredibly non-diplomatic. You can see it on the face of the Ukrainian ambassador: https://www.newsweek.com/photo-ukrainian-ambassador-amid-tru...

That minerals deal was going to be the first step toward peace. But Zelensky royally fucked it up. And the only way to fix it is going to be for him to come groveling back or step down so someone else can do the groveling. And that's not a desire of mine, that's the reality of the situation. Their country is broke and will run out of ammo in six months without further assistance. As Trump said during the call, he has no cards to play.
I've never heard of him, but just reading the short bio at the end of this strongly suggests he's not exactly an objective observer either:

How much support for hurting your employees and users is required before it’s justifiable to find a different CEO?

One common theme I’ve noticed among all the people arguing with me here is that you’re all steadfastly refusing to acknowledge the part where he was the CEO. You’re here comparing him to one random person. I have other replies trying to paint me as inconsistent because I’m not trying to get my bigoted coworkers fired or doing something about random bigots in the community. There’s a big difference when a person is in a leadership role. I’m pretty sure you’re all smart enough to understand that, so I can only assume that you’re avoiding that understanding because it would fatally undermine your argument.
US condemns Thailand's return of 40 Uyghurs to China
> Russia realizes they'd have to expropriate the US government, starts sweating

Not sure what you mean by that? Russia would just nationalize the assets. What would US do about it, if they are not willing to do anything so far? The ownership in this fund would just be nice to have, not make it worth going for Russia then any more than now. And in any case Russia could just make an offer to share the minerals themselves, which they already did. It wouldn't make a difference to US.

> Russia wakes up and decides not to proceed with step 3. to 6., because the downsides of taking over a country (insurgency, tons of explosives everywhere, new huge portions of population on expensive welfare and healthcare, ...) aren't worth it without any of the upsides.

Historically Russia has repeatedly demonstrated willingness to harm their economy in return for gaining more territory.

This deal is worthless in terms of deterring Russia, if Russia is not deterred currently, this deal is not going to make a difference.

The most important thing to Ukraine is - how can we make sure that Russia doesn't invade us again. Everything else is worthless for Ukraine, for the West, and for Democracy.

I would agree something has to be going on that we're not aware of. He went to Russia in 1987 on business, met with some shady characters, came back and immediately placed a $100,000 ad in the NY Times that points fingers at other countries "taking advantage" of the US to promote the idea of US isolationism. He was not political before that trip, and since then it's been his life mission to separate us from our alliances. Now he's parroting lies directly from Putin's mouth gaslighting the world about who invaded who. He's certainly done a good job of keeping whatever it is secret, but it's pretty easy to see what's going on from his actions. Either he's been directly compromised or Russia's running a very effective influence campaign to basically brainwash certain people of influence without their direct knowledge.

Firefox isn't broken, I literally use it all day long as my browser for work and home usage. Rare occasions I pull out brave, maybe once a month, for something that has an issue, and usually that's not it, it's an extension or something.
Probably not, but you know if I left that out, someone would claim the opposite just for contrariness.
People who made the initial thing in the absolute cheapest way possible expect the maintenance work to be similarly cheap. If it turns out it just can't be done on that budget, it'll often just not get done rather than pay what it would cost.
> administrative state (created during FDR) is going away

Created by FDR through acts of the Congress. DOGE is ironically recapitulating the lawlessness that tanked Sourh Africa’s economy.

Also, we’re seeing a breathless expansion of federal executive power. The administrative state isn’t going away. It’s being subsumed. The size of the government is being increased, not decreased—that’s why the GOP budget calls for $2 trillion in new deficits over ten years.

One can celebrate cost cutting. But other than USAID, there is no sign anything durable is being done. The power of the central government is being expanded in ways that should be obviously problematic for anyone thinking ahead: next cycle, a Dem President can just cancel student debts by firing everyone in loan collections and shredding the loan documents.
not the parent.

tl;dr version - because i prefer it. doesn’t make it right. doesn’t make it wrong. makes it what it is.

* i prefer the weightiness of vinyl (although it make moving flat a pain in the arse)

* most of the stuff i buy is limited run stuff that wont exist again, each release i buy is its own thing that wont exist again — even later pressing runs can come out different

* a lot of the time, someone putting out a small limited release is a good signal to me they give a shit about what they’re doing, so i pay attention more to what they’ve done, and i enjoy it more as a result

* i like having a wall shelves filled with vinyl in my flat, i like collecting stuff

* i like putting records on and sitting and listening to them and watching them go round and round on my decks, i like interacting with them, i like the feel of them, they feel more intimate than just plugging a USB in and going through a menu

* i’m forced to listen as the artist intended - ain’t no skip or shuffle button!

* beat matching with vinyl is far more of an art form - there ain’t no magic “sync” button when you’re mixing with vinyl

* i think it sounds better

* it’s the hobby i picked and i enjoy it

This sort of condescension is characteristic of people who hold the opinions you do. The rest of your post is complete nonsense.

Not in Germany. Public insults are punishable. Doing so in a permanent way with lots of outreach (like the web is) increases the consequences.
I'm not on social media but thanks. My views about HN come from the last few months of almost all top news stories top comments involve trump and or musk bashing if any leap to them can be made. This story was just particularly one sided in the comments.

You say Trump is distancing but the reality is, Ukraine people are dying and he's the only one to offer and off ramp and not endless bloodshed. It's as of nobody in this thread values human life, only important thing is orange man and Putin bad. What Putin did sucks and but it has been happening throughout all human history. The solution is not endless bloodshed. Any offramp and chance at peace should be welcomed by anyone one values life.
> > Democracy only matters within arbitrary geographic boundaries?

> Yes, obviously! How other people run their countries is none of America's business. E.g. as long as Syria was keeping Muslim terrorists from attacking America, it was irrelevant to America how many of his own people he killed.

Where do you think the Syrian's that don't want to die go? This question applies to other countries as well such as say Mexico.

The world is very connected and ignoring that fact will just leave with you ton of problems. Say at the southern border ...
Your argument is built on a flawed premise that ignores the foundational role government and society play in enabling wealth creation in the first place. The counterfactual is simple: without government, without the legal and social structures upheld by a functioning society, there would be no stable mechanism for accumulating wealth at all.

Wealth does not exist in a vacuum. It is not some inherent trait of individuals that manifests independently of the structures around them. The wealthiest people succeed not just because of their individual effort but because they operate within a framework that provides enforceable contracts, property rights, regulated markets, financial systems, infrastructure, security, and a workforce educated by public institutions. Strip all that away, and they are no better off than anyone else in a lawless wasteland where power is dictated purely by brute force.

If wealth were purely a function of individual effort, we’d see people amassing fortunes in failed states or ungoverned regions where there is no government interference—but we don’t. In fact, in those places, the absence of government results in instability, extreme poverty, and the inability to conduct large-scale business. Conversely, the wealthiest individuals overwhelmingly exist in places with strong institutions and legal protections—because those things are prerequisites for wealth accumulation.

Your contradiction is actually the real contradiction. You claim that people become rich despite the government but then ignore the fact that wealth is unequally distributed precisely because the government does not intervene enough to prevent market capture by a small elite. A government that enables wealth creation is not the same as one that ensures it is fairly distributed. It is perfectly consistent to acknowledge that wealth requires government structures while also recognizing that unchecked capitalism leads to oligarchy.

So no, this isn't simplistic nonsense. The simplistic nonsense is pretending that wealth creation happens in a vacuum when, in reality, it is entirely contingent on the existence of an organized society with functional institutions.
That’s not a meaningful number because the taxable income was calculated differently: https://taxpolicycenter.org/taxvox/effective-income-tax-rate...

Some of it might be declining costs of everything apart form limited resources (like housing).

Perhaps you generation is better off than their parents were in terms of everything except real estate. But their parents are also better off now than they used to be when they were their age, because everything (except housing) is much cheaper (relatively) than it used to be thanks to optimizations in production and economies of scale of last 5 decades.
For some reason, it started ignoring my rules - both in old .cursorrules and new .cursor/rules. I mean, even blunt ones like (in Python) "never ever import Dict, use dict instead".

I'm unsure if it is Claude 3.7 or a recent Cursor update. Yes, in cursor settings I have rules switched on.

It’s a definite concern but fortunately elections are largely administered by the states so there’s at least a buffer between centralized authoritarians and the voting process.. That being said, I’m sure this DOJ is going to get up to all sorts of shenanigans with whoever is nominated.
While I too find it distasteful and distracting, the inclination to expunge politics from conversation may have played a role in getting us (at least in the US) where we are: 1) where people have forgotten to talk about politics politely, and 2) where politics have been weaponized by tuning to especially divisive issues specifically for high-engagement.

And that is where many of us have played a role: increasing engagement.
