> Free yourself from the notion that a web browser purely browses The Web.

Free yourself from the notion that a web browser should do anything more than browsing the web. native applications have existed for decades, no reason to bloat the scope of a browser.

AKA laziness. yes, lets please bloat of the scope of browsers until they are no longer recognizable, so that you dont have to install some software.

> Reasonable

No definition of that word matches their usage of it. Your papers, please.

> best possible compression

This is a common incorrect assumption. You have to balance ratio with speed, otherwise you end up with something that spends more time decompressing than actually downloading, as is literally the case today with XZ. this is why alternatives like Zstandard are getting popular. 9 times faster decompressing for 10% worse ratio.

I agree, its ridiculous:

a 10 second internet search would say yes, it is so bad:

> They were liable to be pelted by the crowd with rotten eggs and fruit, dead cats and dogs, mud and every variety of filth, and in extreme cases with stones, saucepans and other missiles that caused serious injury. Some were killed or maimed for life.

some sites like Reddit have highly aggressive rules against doxing, where they will hand out permanent subreddit bans, or even site-wide bans. For good reason. People think they are "doing justice", but all they are doing is vigilante justice. No different than the pillory of long ago.

Stop it.

As soon as the site is owned by a public company, it's over. They are legally required to have an algorithm only feed, as this gives the best engagement, regardless of how much the userbase might hate it.

> This is a case where an algorithmic feed would make this into a truly amazing product.

how many platforms need to be ruined by an algorithmic feed before people understand that its a terrible idea?

> Kind of weird that you are so emphatic about not wanting other people to use your work for free

people can use my work for free, as long as the use is non-commercial. I wont respond to the rest of the sentence, because its built on an obvious strawman that I have quoted here. Good day!

every single license here allows commercial use:

so I will defer to that over your opinion.

> Note that Codeberg supports both FSF and OSI licenses

those all allow commercial use. so programmers who want to prevent commercial use cannot use CodeBerg.

> There’s no scary terms involved here. Codeberg is a nonprofit foundation with Free software as part of its mission.

non-commercial licenses protect free software, just not in the pedantic meaning you are peddling.

> non-commercial and other use-restricted licenses are not Open Source (OSI) or Free Software (FSF) licenses.

looks like you cropped the rest of that sentence, so here it is again: with that one restriction that it cant be used for commercial purpose. Also if being OSI or FSF compliant, means that businesses can use my work for free, then no thank you.

> People oppose use-restricted licenses for good reason, too.

yeah, because they want software without paying for it, which they can then use to turn a profit.

> Yes, use-restricted licenses aren’t Free Software

people always like to come out of the woodwork in these discussion throwing around scary terms. non-commercial licenses are exactly like any other open source license, with that one restriction that it cant be used for commercial purpose. people do this for good reason, to stop companies from making huge profits off the back of free work. so use whatever fancy term you want, but the practice is not defensible.

Those both allow commercial use, so you just proved my point.

Is this a joke? OSI essentially means only "corporate friendly" licenses are allowed. If someone wants to protect their work under a non-commercial license, they can do that on GitHub but not CodeBerg.

how many times do I need to say "full raw request" before you understand it? I am talking about the wire format HTTP request, not a shell command.

36 blocked requests with uBlock Origin. shame on you Seth.

> Go is so 2020. Zig is the new freshness.

I dont care.

my comment said "full raw request", not whatever you are talking about.

> Tired of copy pasting cURL commands from chrome to your terminal ?

FYI for anyone that does this, MITM Proxy is usually a better option for this type of stuff. Not sure about Chrome, but especially with Firefox, you have no way of getting the full raw request on anything with a request body like POST. You have to Copy Request Headers, then Copy POST Data. With MITM Proxy or similar you can just get the full request at once. Also you can inject headers like X-Forwarded-For into all or specific requests.

I prefer Go myself. Rust is cool, but I dont like the "left pad" culture that Rust projects typically display. Although focused Rust projects that respect low dependency count are nice.

as you said, its annoying and a complete waste of time. Its essentially someone lying to their audience. As someone trying to build a reputation or a following, how do you do that?

What does some random PR have to do with anything? That is not the Nim repo

I really wish they would fix the static linking. has needed a hack for three years:

https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/15220

my biggest project has 13 stars, so I think I can do what I want with it.

I have been coding in Go for years, even professionally sometimes, and I have never had to use "v2" in any of my code. granted my stuff is not popular, but its really just a way for popular repos to handle big changes. Once I got past v1.9.9, I just changed to v1.10.0.

I dont have trouble with it. Link to my code is in my bio, wheres yours? Unless you actually write Go code, I dont think you have a leg to stand on here.
