> most people wouldn’t choose PHP for a new project Is this really true? I used to be a full-time PHP developer but I personally don't touch that language anymore. But it's still v…

I don't read "patch" as necessarily a "source code patch" per-se. Even if they just add/modify one line in the build script, I'd say that particular distribution of the Firefox app…

Your comment has about the same amount of relevancy to a generic Bitcoin story as saying "9/11 never forget" in the comments of a story about Boeing airplanes.

Usually the meshes have parts of the network that is connected to the internet, and you either automatically get access to those nodes so you can route via them, or you can request…

This seems to be the study itself: https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(23)... The title is "Intravenous psilocybin attenuates mechanical hypersensitivity in a …

How long is a rope? There is already a bunch of "completely detached" networks out there, organized via wifi links. Freifunk, Guifi and NYC Mesh are three examples of such networks…

No, because Electron embeds Chromium/Chrome, Tauri uses whatever the platform already has.

How much of that cost is the browser vs the cost of the browser engine? Servo currently describes itself as a "web rendering engine", so I don't think they are aiming to become a f…

> Can anyone tell me whether Servo is "ready enough" to use for small noncommercial projects? I don't think it is, yet. But why not play around with it and see if it's enough for y…

Depends on what kind of editing is needed. Most professional photographers I encounter use Lightroom, but they don't do any heavy editing like cutting out/in actual objects, but ju…

> Patent trolling is not a company category Oh I'm sorry. I meant to say "Patent Trolling Companies", is it easier to understand now? I'm sure you are aware that there actually is …

> Seems like if you've only come up with patent trolls I'm not sure how valuable it is to argue with someone who cannot read two messages up in the message hierarchy...

Absolutely, that I agree with. But even so, Figma's prices have been increasing, the product is being segmented, they're increasingly pushing for various addons, even if Figma stil…

If you're licensing a patent to others with reasonable terms, it's not a patent troll. I understand you think they provide a service since you seem to not understand what a patent …

Ok, lets hear you argue for what service a patent troll provides.

I don't think so, I read and understand the "OR" in there.

Patent trolling. Domain flipping. Just two I can think of in 30 seconds, I'm sure there are more out there :)

Highly dependent on the country. In some countries I've lived, the government has refused to do anything against companies refusing a refund for various things, even if the conditi…

> The interesting thing is null, because here the distinction sort of breaks down. Kind of like zero, represents "nothing" but also "something", at the same time.
