The lack of multiple browser profiles WITH cloud settings sync has blocked me from switching from chrome for a long time now.

- Firefox? Sync but difficult browser profile management

- Brave? Multiple profiles due to being chrome based, but they use this weird sync system that I'm not a fan of

- Opera? Sync but no multiple profiles on mac (last I checked)

- Safari? Sync AND profiles, but the safari ui really doesn't do it for me

Hopefully this update to multiple profile UX in Firefox will make it viable for my typical use.

Nice to see more web component stuff.

I'm convinced that web components (and the tech that makes up web components) will eventually find its place in everyday web development. That said, I do think people are making a mistake when they try to use it as a one-to-one replacement for react.

Part of the problem with the tailwind debate is that the appeal of tailwind is not just having your styles in your html, it's also having predefined style units, e.g. size intervals for things like margins.

CSS variable libraries like open-props also do this, only without the controversial use of utility classes. Add editor snippets to that and you have nearly the same ease of use as tailwind.

Personally I find the term "intellectual property" to be more messed up. It isn't property, it's a government granted monopoly on reproduction and distribution.

Calling it property allows for this bizarre concept of a form of "theft" that still leaves you with the thing "stolen" from you.

It might be more accurate to say that the democrats started taking the rust belt for granted. And it's hard to ignore the left's shift (in primary focus) from blue collar workers issues towards race and gender issues.

The "all" in the gp refers to the fought for freedom(s) applying to everyone, not that it has majority support or that is wanted by everyone.

As the saying goes, a camel is a horse designed by a committee

It serves its purpose

Is this the libra digital currency project? How many more rebrandings are we gonna get?

How is that "nefarious"? It's not like using a copy nfc tag is giving some players an unfair competitive edge (animal crossing is supposed to be laidback right?). Also, there is a limited supply of any given amiibo and so when one suddenly becomes popular (* cough * Ankha * cough *) many players get priced out.

True, but how many projects will use either one directly and not as a part of a larger toolkit like vitejs and now parcel?

Yes, Parcel is now using SWC under the hood which is written in Rust (esbuild is written in Go), and is esbuild's main competitor/alternative.

It's so encouraging to see esbuild and swc grow in popularity, along with the lightweight dev build vs full production build approach. I made the switch from Parcel v1 to vitejs recently on some personal projects and seeing how fast it starts up and processes changes still has me feeling excited. I wonder how many other frontend tool would be good fits for being written in rust or go.

And how long before this approach becomes the de facto industry standard?

The etymology of "master" according to Wiktionary:
