Must be a very rare browser, it works very well on Brave (mobile).

Also, it is always more helpful to state the actual issue.

If you're talking about multiple iterations of the term "anti-vaxxers", then I'd argue that the term itself is no longer useful.

Nowadays it is used to create an us or them division. Which in turn removes any nuances.

Came here to say the same, that was when the story went from interesting to hilarious.

Seems like there is only one loose end left: will he or will he not avoid the 1B penalty for backing out.

How that goes is anyone's guess.

Not allowing the N-word at all would be the best option. Never really understood how the word can be positive at all, but it seems it can be.

It is not a worthy thing to do for the US, people should have to adapt to higher prices as a cost of supporting Ukraine.

As for the Arab spring, that never had a chance of working. Not even Turkey can deal with democracy and Islam.

Might try it, though the whole debugging experience in PowerShell in VS Code is quite good.

I originally read it as a different editor entirely than VS Code.

The slight startup delay for VS Code vs. for example Notepad++ is quite annoying. I wish there was software as cool as VS Code, but with ultra low startup time.

Good advice, taking work home is not sustainable on a daily basis nor is working weekends.

If you're continuously put in those situations, then it's time to consider your options.

Actually, it's always a good idea to have a backup plan, just incase some unforeseen event happens at work.

It's sometimes the only way you get to communicate with all of the team during the week. So it's more of a social ritual than anything else and those are important too.

One way to avoid burnout is to achieve progress in the form of milestones.

Another one is the pure joy from achieving a difficult goal, e.g. a difficult problem that has eluded you for some time.

Those two things are what I am for to avoid burnout. And if there is no longer joy from the second option, then it might be time to call it quits.

I certainly expect him to pay the 1 billion dollars required for backing out, but of course he will try to avoid that.

The real reason is that he can't afford to buy Twitter at the negotiated price, which is entirely on Musk.

Yeah it's silly.

It's safe to skip the article as it doesn't bring anything special to the table.

All it is saying is that the recent wave of layoffs in the US, could make workers return to the office to secure a job.

When a patent can take up to four years to be granted, and two years in most cases, then the current model is not sufficient.

Instead it ought to be a number of years from the day the patent is granted.

For software that should be around 5 years, if we really need software patents.

On top of that the patent requires the Jpeg2000 compression algorithm to be useful.

If the choice is between the current state of affairs and no software patents, then no software patents is the way to go.

I have more faith in empowered teams at least for companies where software is not the main focus.

For software companies, it makes sense to do more DevOps, how much depends on the company.

Scrum and all the events/meetings that go with it will certainly not be missed. That goes for SAFe as well.

Bad mood i hope.

Should Broadcom do all those things, they run a substantial risk of degrading the products offered by VMware, which is a poor business decision.

Given the very profitable state of VMware, it's a lot more likely that they will only introduce minor changes.

Absolutely, but the US have a gun culture that is in direct conflict with this sound proposal.

Another measure would be to raise the punishment for being an accessory, according to https://www.sandyhookpromise.org/blog/gun-violence/16-facts-..., at least one other person had knowledge of the attacker’s plan in 80% of the cases.

I don't think metal detectors or more surveillance at the school will help enough.

But implement the first two measures as a start.

I much prefer a living breathing store, than these closed-off supermarkets that Gorillas represent.

Where I live there is one squeezed in between three normal supermarkets, each with long opening hours.

There doesn't seem to be any viable business plan for these shops, which is what the article hints at.

With COVID becoming just another disease and the uncertainty from the war in Ukraine, it will only be worse from now on for consumer spending.

A lasting peace for Ukraine needs to happen before that will change.

And with Ukraine not willing to give any territory to Russia, that peace seems very far off.

A coup in Russia could change that, but a coup seems very unlikely.

Many users will probably switch in June 2023, as Chrome will no longer run Manifest v2 by that time.

That will be the true test of Googles changes, if they don't come up with something else before then.

Much like airport taxes around the world are also different and can change at any time.

It is an interesting challenge though, to create software that is easy to maintain while capturing all these complexities.

Ah yes, playing it in the library at school was good fun, in Denmark it was mostly called Babyskak.

It was also an excellent way of introducing chess in a fun way, much like Duck Chess.

Just curious, but separate Firefox code as you say, does that code also work with the Safari browser ?

But what are the options when Google gets to dictate how Chrome and Microsoft Edge behaves.

That is 75% of the browser market, so Google could in theory define their standards and not care about other browsers.

The Ad-friendliness of Googles implementation of Manifest V3 is a clear example of how Google uses their influence.

Somehow the standards commission should have more to say about the process and implementations, i just don't see how.

And it all started out so nice.

While bad in itself, the worse part is that the world is very bad at handling more than one crisis at a time.

The very high temperatures in India and Pakistan are showing that the climate problem is very real.

Seems like booster shots fall in the category of "To be on the safe side", which turns out not to be very effective.

Only reason I got the booster shot was the hassle of not getting it, e.g. having to do test 2-3 times/week.

With booster shot the COVID pass would be valid, never mind that the vaccine doesn't prevent you from infecting others.

Offering Cloud backup that is just a bit too small, due to videos and photos is a smart move by Apple.

Payment for more storage makes sure that subscription apps have an easier time getting paid.

And the high recurring cost of these apps just makes it worse.

An ITunes gift card is a better option, even though it's not as convenient.

Optimizing graphics output in WT requires different skills than doing piping in PowerShell.

But i agree that it's almost embarrassingly bad, that native piping has had no significant progress since 2016.

With PowerShell Core (7.x) now in a good state, one would think the piping could be improved.

Do note that it is targeted for PowerShell 7.3 tentatively, so it won't be used by default in Windows 10/11 or Windows Server.

Agree, clearer minds and evidence seem to prevail which is good news.

The only thing that can be said about COVID vaccine, is that the first two doses are the most useful. After that it looks like the law of diminishing returns kicks in.

An overlooked benefit of exercising, is that if you are eating unhealthy or eating too much, then you will instantly know it when exercising.

Running is quite good for this, it will tell you how things are going, far better than any scale.
