Chrome 92.

Double tap "enter" does nothing. Feedback link on extension leads to nowhere. No description page on plugin. No instructions.

Facebook now worth a trillian dollars and by extension Peter thiel's other company Palantir is worth 50 billion. Tech companies just seem to have momentum after they find product-market fit.

Capital is infinite but time is finite. How long before Peter's other company is worth trillion dollars is anyones guess.

Thats a gross generalisation. One would think, that average HNer would be a coiner because of their background.

Yup no problem.

Straight fro. The horse's mouth

Below 100k hits should be fine. Note its hits not users. But, have used Sqlite on 25k visitors per day site with no issues.

For what its worth, I have partially switched to ff 89 and will fully do so in 3 months time. I have 24 chrome profiles and consider myself to be power user.

I like the new ff design barring the tabs which is the main concern of the op. But you have to give ff the benefit that they are trying hard to keep everyone happy and improving things as they go. I like the fact that atleast with ff I browse in containers and use their password manager compared to other browser password manager. Android ff nightly is great and supports extensions.

Would I trust my password to chrome ? Would google allow ublock origin on android ? One only needs to think a bit more to answer these questions.

There is a pretty good free course you can take over at https://zenacademy.com.au/course/landing-pages-that-convert/

It shows you how to put together a minimalist landing page including deriving your features and benefits. Has some templates and checklist.

Only a little bit of time before the opting out process is made redundant by some API that will break somewhere or something that will be brought in as an RFC in chrome.

Chrome's & Android's entire existence is to ensure Google ads business survives. This until Google can find another business that produces the same returns or dies.

I wish there were more entities that would focus on developing tools for open web. Open web as we used to know is dying.

No thank you. I appreciate what DDG is trying to do but in the end, a search engine that makes money from selling ads trying to protect me from another search engine that also sells ads is just feeding the ecosystem.

I am going to put my money into FF no matter how annoying some of the things in it are.

I run a completely ad free version over at https://hackerspad.net/. I pay the bills when people list their softwares on the site and self hosted icon ad on the sidebar.

Great setup. What are the softwares in use ?

100% agree with the default layout wasting too much space. I like this user also wish there was even a more compact layout. This is most certainly a abandon software breaking change for me.

I am working on https://hackerspad.net which finds leading alternatives to softwares,reviews and comparisions for your favourite app or software. I have been working on it since April last year learning PHP, MYSQL, Nginx, Wordpress, Redis and so on. I am a salesperson by trade.

The main difference between hackerspad and other alternative sites it that it is devoid of ads and the idea is to charge businesses for listing. It makes just enough to pay hosting cost.

I hope they kill it. The australian news over at news.google.com.au is so terrible that clicking any other link apart from ABC news, SBS and Guardian just brings the nasty paywall which defeats the purpose of news aggregation.

This is gross violation of user privacy but if you file a bug with FB they will say - "won't fix" ; is working as intended.

I did the same to Shopify about 12 months ago or less and their response was , first please remove the takeover from your panel and then second we are aware but wont fix.

It is absolutely bewildering that they wouldn't take this seriously. The owner of my takeover tried to add the domain to their panel and they couldn't. This adds a whole new level of customer service to their backlog which should essentially be mitigated by an automation of sorts via a txt record or cname confirmation. Seems to me that they are more interested in not fixing it but happy to waste hours of their agents trying to fix such takover problems.

Going to fall on its head. Apple isnt asking for fruits of their labour but charging from device abuse, management of store and general device health.

On day 2, add about 100ml of clarified butter or as we call it Ghee. Ketosis kicks in much faster, helps you stay strong without any hunger pangs as Ghee will usually act as a lubricant and cleanser for your inner organs. It is also all Fat and there is tonne of literature on benefits of ghee in Indian Vedas.

Nytimes is reporting that at 110 kilos , with reported high cholestrol and being obese for his height he is more likely to develop complications. This tips the scale towards whether he should be on the ballot at all ?

This is developing to be one of the most bizarre year of the last century and one can only hope that the buck stops here.

Not sure if these doctors have followed what has been happening in Melbourne, Australia.

We have been in lockdown since early June and went from 700 cases per day to 15 per day so it has technically worked. However, it has completely destroyed businesses and affected a lot of smaller retailers. Our premier has been called "Dictator Dan" by most of murdock media including WAPO but the support among public has stayed strong. Suppression is a good strategy when the world is devoid of a vaccine.

I once went to court against a client who wouldn't pay his bills. The sum more than 35K. It took over 9 months to get to court ( as the court wouldnt give a date ) and countless docs and hours spent to come up with evidence folder. In Australia, a citizen can argue their case which I did without using any lawyers.

Finally, we both argued our case to a point where the client's defence was that there was no time log for the work that I had done. I pointed out that the contract stipulates performing of tasks and is not contingent on time spent. The judge laughed and ruled in my favor because he was fully onboard the argument that it doesn't matter ,legally speaking, how much time I was at the computer but matters that the task promised were delivered with high quality. The funny thing is that the client agreed that he has seen positive returns but felt overcharged. The judge on hearing this reprimanded him for wasting everyone's time and awarded costs and interests.

Pay for work not time spent on the computer.

Autobiography of a yogi is a surprisingly good read. Also a fave of steve jobs..

Phabricator is an absolute gem...

The drowning person really hit home for me. This is what most blog posts on startup world sound like trying to teach you something...

They also spam the sitemap with their links.

The wordpress ecosystem is a mess. Every useful plugin has 10's of variations all selling premium version. Nowadays you would be ucky to find a well coded plugin that doesn't take over your admin screen an does the thing you want.

YOASTseo is the biggest culprit with a terrible codebase and countless notifications to take over screens. God forbid you delete something in bulk and your page will be taken over with countless notifications. Sitemaps spam is apparently acceptable industry wide and so they continue with this abhorrent practice.

Note that while interest rates remain low almost every asset manager is going to remain invested. So are people like Buffet. Invest in Index. Don't pick stocks.

Worth noting that cloudflare does a poor job of identifying and allowing crawlers specially Google. I have a site with 1 mil URLs , nothing big and every time you turn on cloudflare it reduces the crawler to 1k visits or less per day. If you compare your logs for visits for Google and Bing with CF turned on/off there is a huge difference.

Suffice to say, that in over 5-6 projects I have added CF to, it's never worked out in my favour.

It is in fact very opinionated software like Basecamp. No Imap killed it for me even before it began.

Play chess.

It helps you think strategy before execution. It also helps you keep focussed on the bigger picture.

In the last 2 years, I have gone from being ranked 800ish points to now 1200 on chess.com and it has definitely developed my thinking.
