Ditto, the only time I use Chrome is when some old portals in work require it. I've never had a crash in the past 8 years, but then again, I keep my tabs clean and have uBlock Origin.

It depends on the extension, what are you using? Search in the Add-on store[0] If It's present there, then Firefox can even import them from Chrome for you if it matches certain criteria[1]

I said this before I left IBM, and I will say it again.

These and other models IBM is working on can do basic tasks that anyone else could. But it will all fall apart the moment you add complexity to it.

It's hilarious to see how IBM struggles to stay relevant, what did that lead to? A bot that summarizes stack trace. Why is this even on the front page of HN?

If you are going by the Nextcloud route, they have an enterprise solution[0] and you can pay a bit to them to avoid some worries.

IMHO, having the diversity in storage and computing would help the current tech world a lot.

Don't get me wrong, I've been using custom ROMs for years, and even I didn't know about this issue until I switched to GraphineOS where the pill cannot be hidden.

One day, the pixel and the stock android will have the ability to hide the navigation pill/ gesture bar[0]. On that day, the screenshots of these products pages will be of the complete screen instead of the top half.

I have worked for three companies over the past decade, well the second one was an acquisition, anyway, only the last one asked me why I want to work there, I gave an honest answer, it was easy to answer because I grew up reading about things they do.

Last month I was laid off among many other during this AI race. And I was given something called a score sheet to tell me why I was selected, while the performance score was maximum, I was not not "flexible" enough. The only thing I could think off is the conversation I had with my manager about the direction the company is going towards, but alas they went on a holiday after scoring me.

The companies might want smart and passionate people, but they never want smart, passionate, and honest people. If you don't have a brown tongue, you'll not survive.

It is (not) surprising that the BCG (A Global Consulting Firm) made a publication about burnout and tunneled in on inclusivity.

There are other aspects that contribute heavily to burnout and employee morale, the elephant in the room is the massive layoffs and the lack of promotions[0]. Consulting firms are affected by this a lot.

If you cut down most of your workforce, or give no “rewards” for the ones who worked their ass off your revenue, of course there will be burn out, depression, and all other things that would make one stop working.

The original title was too long for the restricted title field.

It is “WHO Member States agree to resume negotiations aimed at finalizing the world’s first pandemic agreement.”

> For my web sites I don‘t decide on color styles. It‘s all system style.

This is false, I had a look, if you are talking about the sites you linked in your Keybase profile, I found that you are using prefers-color-scheme to decide what colors the visitor should see if they have dark mode. This is exactly I'm asking others to implement.

    @media(prefers-color-scheme:dark) {
      body {
        color:#fff;
        background:#000
      }
      a:link {
        color:#cdf
      }
      a:hover,
      a:visited:hover {
        color:#def
      }
      a:visited {
        color:#dcf
      }
    }

If you didn't know that you had this, then you might be using a CSS framework without actually understanding what it does.

No further comments by me will be added here.

Reminds me of “The GUI should be better. A lot better” by Ross Scott[0].

Edit: looks like this project is already submitted to Ross Scott's forum post[1].

For 1 - Yes, it is dumping the work on the web author -- And the web author must be the person who decides the styles. It is impossible for the browser to do it because of the diverse styling on the internet, even the existing extensions that try to apply colorschemes break for me all the time.

This situation is created by the web developers, doing whatever they can and however they can because even the existing standards are not really enforced, they don't even care about schematics and just use a framework that generates nested `<div>`. The texts are not readable due to the contrast difference, random styles being injected dynamically via JavaScript, etc.

For 2 - I would say that something is better than nothing. Why not provide a slightly better experience for the minority than providing nothing at all? I don't see the argument here, internet stranger.

If the theme preference needs to align with the entire system theme, feel free to make a proposal in W3C, with enough traction we can make it happen.

As a developer, OS or Browser deciding the colors of my website would be a nightmare. The web is diverse, everyone doing their own weird colours in whatever weird way they can think of.

But we do get the "prefers-color-scheme"[0] and "color-scheme"[1] CSS media features, they make it easy for everyone, the visitor can just change the OS/Browser theme and the browser tells the website about what color the visitor prefers. It's up to the developer to ignore/accept their preference.

This is an accessibility thing, many hates dark theme, and some cannot look at a bright screen for long, all sites should provide either a way to change the theme or use these CSS features.

You can do it with waypipe[1]. But Wayland itself doesn't support remote rendering by choice[2] as it is outside its scope.

> Firefox now allows you to force-underline links in websites. Thank you! No more second guessing or hovering over badly colored texts to check if something is a link.

Very nice! Hope to see more of it in the future. The window has old chrome vibes, it is not a bad thing.

Would be nice to have a dedicated forum (Discourse?) instead, but I get that it is too soon for this project.

Yeah, many times I was keen to join the IndieWeb events, but I was put off by the requirement of Zoom. Jitsi would be perfect for IndieWeb as one of their principles is “owning your data”.

And ooh, I'm at https://codingotaku.com

I use Aegis[1] on mobile and OTPClient[2] on my computer, both are regularly backed up on change.

I do not use the TOTP feature in my password manager as feel it will defeat the purpose of 2FA (though I can split it to a new DB in KeePassXC).

For my work, the company uses a proprietary password manager, I just don't install it in any of my personal computing devices.

Please verify colour contrast using a tool like contrastchecker[1]

Also, there are some accessibility issues with the page, use one of the Web Accessibility Evaluation Tools to fix this.

I was about to suggest dark reader, which has a "Light mode". But it turns out that this website has poor colour contrast and most words just "disappear" with both dark or light mode.

Um… bad bot?

Deleted mine about 4–5 years ago, I even switched jobs after that. I never landed a job using LinkedIn, I joined the site when I was young and saw everyone else doing it.

For me, LinkedIn is like any other social media, "okay enough" to find people and companies, but near-impossible to land a job. It is far easier to search job elsewhere, go to the company portal, and apply job from there.

I said that because SEO (or your entire reply) has nothing to do with either the OP or my post said, your reply sounded like an argument, sorry if I misinterpreted.

But please don't change the topic to something irrelevant.

Yes, and something bad happened does not make another bad thing good.

I don't think it is correct to compare my above opinion with law enforcement, it doesn't need to be "enforced", may be use it as a nice guideline for publishing stuff.

If someone did write things purely with some algorithm, just annotate that it was not written by a human, so that people who don't want to read made-up/generated articles can just ignore it and move on.

Doing it the reverse way does not make any sense to me, it is the same as treating all articles not having "written by human" label as generated content. -- in the "law enforcement" perspective, this is "guilty until proven innocent".

What can and should be enforced is licence checks, like reusing things not in public domain should follow the license when publishing (looking at you Copilot).

I do not like that this exists, this shouldn't need to exist, AI or ML should not write articles, but they should just be a companion who helps you put things into words if you struggle with it.

I guess it is too much to ask for in the clickbait-y, monetization per-view driven internet.

You can find it in F-Droid[1], it still has the old version though. And it is not in active development.

https://exercism.org/ is a nice place to start.

The FAQ has a list of reasons on why a post can be flagged[0][1], and I don't think it will affect your account unless you frequently post flagged content.

My guess would be the title, or the way the article was written.

IMO, the article makes valid points from both technical and privacy perspective, but it was written less like a critic and more like an attack.

People in Free software community will agree with the article as most knows about how bad a centralized proprietary program can be.

But the wordings could have been better so that it would trigger fewer people.
