The usual explanation by Firefox team is that the drivers are not uniformly compliant and/or working well. There had been progress, though. For your specific system, you can open a…

Looks basically like the Logo language, except with more sigils and less turtle.

Well you ask a good question, but the examples they give ("optional ads" and "sponsored suggestions") only necessarily imply sharing some aggregates. Like, for example, "we have th…

Their blog post seems to address the change quite adequately: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/update-on-terms...

Here's a summary by notegpt: Summary Rich Hickey discusses the complexities of optionality in programming, particularly in Clojure’s spec system, emphasizing the need for clear sch…

Also Moonring. Not as huge as Balatro, but fairly well-known too.

One of you seems to be referring to the external bar (external expectations) and the other to the bar one sets for him/herself. That difference in perspective seems to be at the ro…

MoltenVK is also a thing. Whatever small translation overhead it incurs is probably not that important for a text editor. And then you get a cross-platform API: not just Linux, but…

Thunderbird is still alive and developing.

When they do "realize" that, B2B companies end up building products that are evaluated by procurement managers but not end users. Lots of examples in the industry. So I'd really ra…

To be fair, sometimes meticulous users investigate the bugs and write down logical chains explaining the causes and even offer a solution at the end (which they can't apply for the…

Speaking of text editors and tools like that, you can often avoid having tests (or postpone adding them for a long time), if the logic is on the main execution path, meaning you'll…

I guess when the aliens finally arrive, the important part will be to avoid hugging them.

1 and 5 are semi-true, 2 is false (both parts), 3 and 4 are fair enough. The overall statement is false (he remains the most recognized opposition figure in the country).

It also kept him on the map as a Russian politician. Even though his practical communication abilities are pretty limited because of that.

They might even be aware due to billboards and stuff, but not bothered enough to find the settings. This might even be the year of DDG on the Desktop! Well, the next year, or whene…

To be fair, the original Blade Runner was also basically fan fiction to the source material. The second one was too, and though it was quite different in tone, I liked both.

What it probably shows, is that while the fraction of inhabitants of Russian ethnicity stayed roughly the same in there, the supporters for joining Russia, at the very least, are n…

Whether the people considered themselves to be "Russian" or not, in 1991 54% of voters in Crimea came out in favor of independence: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1991_Ukrainian_ind…

You won't get this on Linux, though. Unless they manage to bake his shit into GPU microcode somehow.

They don't have to be outsourced to this to happen. To put out lengthy press-releases, you hire a copywriter. You don't ask an engineer to write them. People make mistakes sometime…

> GNU Emacs is now dependent on TreeSitter which is a MIT-licensed project and LSP which is a Microsoft project Not really dependent (you can build and use Emacs without either).

Feeding actively random data can put you into a special category of users, though. If the recipient does any relevant analysis. So if one was looking to preserve privacy and reduce…

> My guess is Elon said "the site's too slow!" Seems more like a thinly disguised attempt to force people to purchase subscriptions. Blue checkmarks and all.

> Wouldn't this basically convert any IDE into Emacs if the user wants it? Emacs Lisp is only part of the equation. You need the all of the programmability that implements 90% of E…
