The style is in the way of the content.

I'm interested, but not ready to preorder. Please add a mailing list that I can sign up to?

I have been the person who made the final decision about default browsers for a company several times. You'd better believe after you killed xul I never chose firefox again.

I did. The security argument is a poor one- tab managers are way more "secure" than the millions of chrome extensions that require total control of all websites you browse to. The multi-threaded and faster experience is just a matter of redesign. If UI people followed Linus's adage of never breaking compability with APIs we'd all be happier

There was no excuse, they should just bring xul back

I don't agree, and you shouldn't force those of us who don't agree to die.

Yes, but you know what the bare DCTs of the square box should be, so if they differ from that, it must be from the original image

I think they mean the original compression of the original text file (if in jpeg) would have crafted specific DCT coefficients that reach across to the secret text. When that is later decoded to pixels and re-encoded, new DCTs are burned into the image, but only on top of the previous.

They already had this once before, then shut it down. Not sure why this time should be different?

AI isn't dangerous now. But it will be.

Grooming maybe?

I have a reference somewhere to a NYT article explaining that stealth technology is impossible

This OS seems interesting! Link?

Agreed- we use Druid, it's quite successful, but the Druid hosting situation up until this point has been pretty lousy.

The fact that medallions were so expensive that you could retire off owning one was the problem. There weren't enough taxis.

Network monitoring company (part of cisco)

SRE is hiring- REMOTE in North America & Europe, all levels, https://boards.greenhouse.io/thousandeyes

I'm disappointed that it is not using inode ordering

That's what they said about masks, and that turned out to be wrong too. Assuming that people are idiots never helps

That's what you do with normals anyway, right?

But they don't extend the sandbox (Look at tab tree). Also, it's impossible to demonstrate demand for an extension that doesn't exist.

Removing the old plugin format killed Mozilla.

I'm a potential customer, and I'd like to treat this as any data storage company- because that's what this is, a genetic data storage company.

One of the things I find annoying about existing companies is that I can't see how my data is doing. For digital data, I can monitor to see how my data is doing, but all I know about existing companies is that they will tell me if something fails.

I'd like to see live monitoring data from your freezers. Is that something you'd share?

If you read Dorothy Sayers 'Unpleasantness at the Belladonna club', you'll find that people were even back then obsessed with what they called 'glands'

The consumer surplus of search engines is like $17000 per year per person

I would rather have Google than the GDPR or most elected bodies.

I'm using FreeCad for my entire CNC milling pipeline- from modeling down to g-code. It works quite well for me.

Great job making the world worse.

Has anyone written anything on how process affinity would help with Spectre/Meltdown?
