Another one supporting the sequence CNN interview, then pedo tweet:

>Mr Musk called Mr Unsworth a "pedo" in a July 15 post on his Twitter account after Mr Unsworth, in an interview with CNN, dismissed Mr Musk's attempts to help rescue the boys as a "PR stunt".

Hate on Musk (or anyone). Be accurate is the message here.

Musk calling a hero a pedo with no evidence in response after (correctly?) being accused of having a garbage solution that couldn't work and he could stick it on international tv is appalling.

Added: I wonder if it was the pro or anti musk faction that flagged the call fo accuracy ad provided references. Even more amusing if both.
When did "consumer" become a word used by marketing? It's a technical term from economics and a role that is played by everyone at various points in their lives. Calling people "consumers" seems distasteful and I think betrays how Microsoft thinks about their customers. "Teams for Home" would have been a much more obvious and nice name.
There are many other transport protocols for APIs, http basically took the lead in the early days because it made it through firewalls/proxies; not because it is better.
To you, it might be admirable. To others, it's just a constant reminder of existential threats. Kudos to you if you can handle it, but it's not anyones place to say just how much is too much to cut them off.
It's fairly easy to compile and give it a spin to try stuff out. It'll log to terminal everything it does/doesn't do, including things it does not support. You can also then go to https://html5test.co/ to see a bunch of stuff with relative ease.

And I'll add:

cmd+opt+shift+esc force quits the current app (cmd+opt+esc opens the force quit window, as the former doesn't work sometimes).

Cmd+q quits the current app, and, when command is held and we're cycling through apps with cmd+tab, it quits the currently selected app. If you need to quit multiple apps at once, hold cmd, press tab to select the apps to quit, and just quit them with q.
Doing the impossible is easier than you think

Might work as an application delivery platform but most web content is text

WASM blobs will make the web harder to index, link around, that doesn’t require a compile step, has a built in security model and all the other things that made the web easy to develop for and helped it to grow.

I'm pretty sure this is about Mozilla services. AFAICT, Firefox itself is licensed under the https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Public_License and as such doesn't put any restrictions on how you use the software.
I would say it doesn't do anything. It may has well defined what should be done - but doing it well and correctly is burdened upon the user.
I was thinking the same until they mentioned "WASI components" for using HTML. I'd still prefer HTML first though
> Third option is disable JS.

You mean you’d like to use a web browser as a document viewer instead of an operating system? This ship has sailed a decade ago, at least.
> or the biggest web detox ever

I'm slowly thinking that this might be the correct way forward. It's difficult, at least for me, because I am addicted to the internet, but recently I realized that I need to be more mindful about my internet time, simply because it became shit, and using it actually has hugely negative impact on my life. I'm not sure how to phrase it, but it's not "ah yeah I'll do that someday", but rather "ok, things are getting serious, I am making a decision and starting to follow though right now".
I switched to Safari from Chrome on MacOS and never looked back. Way faster and kinder to battery. Also, it doesn’t push Google or any other login onto me.
I’m pretty sure this wasn’t available on early GPUs. Additive blending with glBlendFunc(GL_ONE, GL_ONE) or its D3D equivalent just summed the new fragment with the frame buffer value.

Accumulating into an 8-bpc buffer will quickly artifact, so whether it’s acceptable to only do the blend operation in linear light (accumulating into a gamma-corrected frame buffer) depends on how many passes you’re rendering.
I find Firefox much more heavy on resources vs Edge. I’m always get disappointed when trying to make Firefox my main browser.

Chromium devtools has more features but more cluttered and more annoying to work with.For the common devtools tasks Firefox works better IMHO. But that can be my bias after using Firefox/Firebug devtools for over 15 years.

Brave supports it right now, which is 2 months after it's been removed upstream.

I strongly suspect they're gonna drop support as soon as the first bigger merge issue happens along with a heartfelt blog that "they did they everything to support it, but it was just too much for the resources available to them"

I doubt it's gonna take more then 1-2 years (December 2027) for this to happen, but we will see.
WhatsApp is now the de-facto planetary telephone network. The only problem is that it can't call landlines unlike Skype. Is there a replacement for this specific functionality?
The "weaponization of complexity" is real—modern web standards are an endless labyrinth of APIs, performance optimizations, and security requirements. Large players like Google have the resources to dictate how the web evolves, while any newcomer faces insurmountable hurdles in achieving compatibility, security, and speed. Even major tech companies have tried and failed (e.g., Microsoft ditching EdgeHTML for Chromium).

Can anyone do anything about it? Google’s control is inevitable. No one can meaningfully compete with Google in the long run. Keeping up with compatibility alone is a full-time job for massive teams—which is why even Microsoft gave up on EdgeHTML and switched to Chromium.

If you're not trying to be fair with your arguments then what's the point of making an argument at all? If you're deliberately introducing a bias to your arguments then you completely invalidate them to anyone seeking to find a grounded understanding. This can cause people to completely discredit any criticisms of products by Big Tech as just whining by the open source community. I hate this kind of mentality and unfortunately you're not the only one.
AeroSpace is really nice, when it works. As soon as I use more of CPU, for example to compile something, it gets unusably slow, as in 5 seconds to do anything slow. The worst part is that the workspaces are virtual, so when you kill it, you're left with a tens of pixel-sized windows in Mission Control.

So I went back to yabai. It gets the jobs done fine.

You can already do this. You don't need a special browser. This approach always sounds great until you consider how native input, text selection, copy-paste, etc. behave on mobile. Not to mention accessibility, screen readers, and so on.

I hunted about - https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/jul/15/elon-musk...

is a better article for sequence, although the twitter dates are not helpful - the embedded in a tweet interview clip has the date of the tweet and not the date of the interview. That was tweeted after the Musk pedo tweet.

The quote was:

He can “stick his submarine where it hurts,” Unsworth said during the interview in Thailand.

before going in detail about why the sub idea was impractical (as was stated by several others at the time).

It doesn't justify the "Pedo Guy" accusation though, Musk was clearly being a attention seeking nuisance and getting in the way of an ongoing rescue effort.
I'll stay for the time being because there is no better alternative.
> complete lie

I disagree. I definitely editorialized it to make it attention-grabbing and point out the essence, because I wanted to raise awareness and spur discussion.

But they do own it in the digital sense (i.e. "piracy is not stealing" sense). You get to keep your own copy, but they also get a copy and they own that copy.

> help you navigate, experience, and interact with online content

These terms are vague enough to allow pretty much everything. Google would argue that tracking your information so they target ads is "helping you navigate" ("you see, sponsored links are more relevant!"). As well as "lets train an AI model that helps users experience the internet!"

The point is that it's less than 15 websites (at least the top level ones), not counting where they take you to next!

What's coming is a malleable OS that runs natively + in the browser ! probably uses WASM and that breaks the barriers between apps.
I need to build one to show my point.
I'm not sure that is the right conclusion.

It is more like the AI part of the system for this specific use case has reached a position where focusing on that part of the complete application as opposed to other parts that need attention would not yield the highest return in terms of user satisfaction or revenue.

Certainly there is enormous potential for AI improvement, and I have other projects that do gain substantially from improvements in e.g. reasoning, but then GPT 4.5 will have to compete with Deepseek, Gemini, Grok and Claude on a price/performance level, but to be honest the current preview pricing would make it (in production, not for dev) a non starter for me.
The end of extensions like uBlock Origin will mark the end of power user era in web development history.
> I'd say porn makes people miserable not happy/ fulfilled.

Yes. And no.

It depends on a lot of other things: what porn you're looking at [1]; what stage you are in; how fulfilled you are with your life; etc.

The addiction to porn is like any addiction: a symptom of something else not going well; addiction which you won't get out of if you don't find a way to fix the issue. That isn't to say that you shouldn't treat the symptom as well, if/when it hurts you too (and any addictive behaviour can quickly hurt).

The very tricky thing is that, the same thing (alcohol, sex, drugs, porn, sport, work, food) can be addictive to someone, and just recreational to another; beneficial and harmful.

The key is understanding why, for each and every one. Not to shame.

[1] porn is not necessarily the most extreme, garbage, inhuman stuff; although those are very liberally used by most porn websites. Some stuff are definitely harmful, to anyone, on either side of it. Some are well thought-out and promote educational, healthy, loving behaviour - guess why, those of most often written and produced by women.

> WASM could indeed make for a simple, yet powerful, web-like platform, and I hope to see this!

Careful what you wish for. WASM-rendered pages could spell the end of ad-blockers and other extensions that modify or read page content. You'll have only binary blobs being downloaded rendering something on a canvas surface.
Both of those are still a rounding error compared to searches for Terraform though:

That being said, it'll be interesting to see if it's still a rounding error 2 years from now.

Does anyone here know why the pay-to-browse model never really took off?

As in, suppose your daily browsing generates about $3 of monthly ad revenue [0]. Instead, you have a (digital) wallet linked to your browser, which could be pre-loaded with credit each month. For each website you visit you may decide to opt-out of ads by paying a fraction of your credits.

You could even have a system where you could pay for a model with light-ads (i.e. at most 1 ad per page, 10 seconds of ads per 30min of video), or pay more for zero ads.

I understand it's a difficult system to organize and is dependent on a strong network. But I'd expect there to be a solid small market by now.

Lots of individual websites have this option (e.g. Netflix, newspapers, Spotify, Youtube Premium) but there's nothing overarching.

I think it's less a matter of "can you represent graphs in a relational DB" (of course you can), and more about what kind of queries the DB is optimised for. Graph databases are intended for complex recursive queries on relatively unstructured data. You could certainly do that in SQL if you wanted to, but you'll pay for it performance-wise.

Graph query languages also make those kinds of queries much easier to express in the first place.
Why should malware repos be deleted?

Serious question. The repos aren't themselves doing harm, are valuable for research, and would be distributed some other way if GH removed them. Maybe a banner “be careful! others have reported that this repo may not do what it claims. proceed with caution” would be a more appropriate response?
I think Microsoft killed it the moment when they made everything move through central servers before everyone had good network connection, everywhere. It was P2P before.

It was slow, laggy and unstable for most of the time. Also, they didn't invest in the transportation codecs much.

After it's marred, they didn't try to mend it much, and when it started to work well due to better bandwidth, they didn't push it back again. It fell to the wayside of "value-adds" all Windows software vendors love to put in the bag.

> "Oh you get the whole Office, great. There's some Skype for you, too. You know it doesn't work well, but it won't hurt to have it installed, no?"

So they blew their chances, badly. I personally don't like Microsoft, but they could have made me use it, if it worked well. Now I use Meet, which is again bundled with Google One, but it's web based and works much better. It also supports the nice features (noise cancelling, advanced backgrounds and whatnot) under Firefox, too.

What both of you are describing is just what normally happens with MOST acquisitions (regardless of the nationality of the acquirer).

Most acquisitions don’t turn into YouTube or WhatsApp/Instagram-level success for the acquirer. The academic literature on CEOs empire building via acquisition is that most of the time it’s value destructive.

I love a good US vs Europe debate but acquisitions aren’t an area where either corporate culture excels. European acquirers are equally as careless with their gobbled up playthings.
I'm not saying they had it butter smooth (great projects rarely start in completely free-for-all environments).

Main stopper was distribution of licenses. There were 100s of LLCs splitted into multi-level trees by ~30 big music groups keeping all the licenses and supervised by artists association. Every LLC kept 2-5 music distribution licenses without any discrimination, local musicians, foreign musicians. Licenses were in constant flux (it wasn't uncommon to 2 companies exchange licenses on weekly basis).

A simple reason was income distribution for tax reasons and law sanctioned such procedures. Changes came no earlier than in 2012 when many digital services were already available. And I know that simple answer would be "just ignore the law", but that was also a time when BSA with Microsoft were doing raids with hardware seizure (many of which overturned in courts years after initial seizure).

There's no equality of opportunities. That's it and nothing more.
It has never paid my bills, in that I've never worked for an analyst firm.

My bills have been paid by working for vendors, where I have seen how sales and marketing use their reports in action. I have seen the amount of effort engineering and product management put in to try to present the best possible vision of their product and its future potential to these analysts. (I've never been personally directly involved in any of those activities though, I've just observed them from the margins.)

But, it isn't like the vendors have a huge amount of choice – if you refuse to engage with the analysts and utilise their reports in your sales cycle, what happens when your competitors do?

They are removing all the text about how they do not sell personal data as well.

My suspicion is that this is somehow related to Mozilla Anonym: https://www.anonymco.com/

If you haven't already configured "Firefox Data Collection and Use" and "Website Advertising Preferences" to not share data you should do so immediately.
An application I used to deal with was similar, but with a somewhat quirky developer, who would deliberately flip between positive/negative confirmation questions, e.g.:

- Confirm this is correct? (Yes=F1, No=F2)
- Would you like to make any changes? (Yes=F1, No=F2)

And maybe sometimes flip the yes/no F-key assignments as well.

In theory this was done to force users to read the question and pay attention to what they were doing, in practice, users just memorized the key sequences.

Completion latency is one thing, bandwidth would be another. There's apparently a whole world of Alveo SmartNIC's and related FPGA platforms, and it can totally get in nanosecond range for whatever nails that may fit the compute-in-network hammer, even if bound by latency of the consuming system / RDMA interface.

One overlooked point is ephemeral source port exhaustion. If a load balancer forwards a HTTP connection to a backend system, it needs a TCP source port for the duration of that connection (not destination port, which is probably 80 or 443). That limits the number of outgoing connections to less than 65535. A common workaround is to use more outgoing IP addresses to the backends as source IPs, thus multiplying the available number of source ports to 65535 times number_of_ips.

HTTP/2 solves this, as you can multiplex requests to backend servers over a single TCP socket. So there is actually a point of using HTTP/2 for load_balancer <-> backend_system connections.

If you read what sama is quoted as saying in your link, it's obvious that "unified model" = router.

> “We hate the model picker as much as you do and want to return to magic unified intelligence,”

> “a top goal for us is to unify o-series models and GPT-series models by creating systems that can use all our tools, know when to think for a long time or not, and generally be useful for a very wide range of tasks,”

> the company plans to “release GPT-5 as a system that integrates a lot of our technology, including o3,”

He even slips up and says "integrates" in the last quote.

When he talks about "unifying", he's talking about the user experience not the underlying model itself.
