I don't want "two instances". I just want to trigger Firefox to open a new window. Just like it does when I press CTRL+n.

Gives me the exact same behavior: Firefox is already running, but is not responding. Have you tried it?

by JonathanBeuys 3y ago
For some reason, new Firefox windows can only be launched from the same environment from which the first window has been started. Even the same user who started FF cannot launch a new window from a new shell. That constantly interferes with

After a few decades of developing applications, I am convinced that frameworks are the wrong approach. You gain development speed in the beginning, but you lose it later on when the framework introduces breaking changes and you have to keep

Im on HN quite a lot, but have not seen a discussion on what holds Bitcoin over Lightning back for online payments.

What is holding back Bitcoin adoption for small online payments? With Bitcoin, a payment is a payment. So this problem would never occur. The two arguments I often hear are "losing keys", which would not be a big issue for small a

I'm surprised the demo scene is still targeting the C64. Why not the browser? Would be a lot of fun to try the different demos then. Would be entertaining and educational to see different things you can actually do in the frontend thes

The big question is if Google will be able to capitalize on their research. Or if publishing all those papers just plays into the hands of the competition. When I want to try Bard, I still get "Bard isn’t currently supported in your co

A key is pretty similar to a password. "Avg users" use passwords all the time. But my post wasn't even about average users. The majority of people never publish anything.

I don't know anybody who has no data they care for. Everybody has some data they never don't want to lose. So the Nostr key would be just another piece of such data. Also, losing it would not that much of a desaster. Use a new k

I just marked the key with my mouse, pressed ctrl+c, went to a text file, pressed ctrl+v and saved it. If someone is not capable of doing that, I am not sure I want to read their articles. Not sure what you are referring to with "pick

Since I recently tried Nostr, I am much less worried what goes on with Twitter and Co. Nostr is crazy cool and feels a lot like it could become the future of publishing. I basically just started posting on the first random client I found on

Which users have access to put files into .well-known/ of the root domain? I am not aware of any service that allows that. Can you give an example? What do you mean by "lots of people"?

That is fine for simple projects where all you have to do is automate cert updates for the root domain or a few subdomains. The problem is not to automate this process. It's easy to write a shellscript that regularly updates certs for

HTTPS is still a pain in the ass. If letsencrypt would offer wildcard certificates with their url based authentification as they offer for non-wildcard certificates, it would be annoying but bearable. But having to tinker with the DNS infra
