Why use electron? All non-server OS:es ship with a standards compliant browser these days. Sure those browsers are built specifically for that platform, but they are already installed

Regardless if you feel that the web was made only for documents it has become the only truly cross platform runtime you can always expect users to have installed. That's incredibly valuable. Why would we throw that away? > Stop dick

I really dislike automatic conversion between cases. There does not seem to be any established convention of how to handle uppercase acronyms across all different ecosystems that use camelCase, so ``` document.getElementById('example-d

> We know letting a dominant player abuse their position to corner the market has long-term downsides to user choice. Windows, IE, and now Chrome. The solution to that is to stop the abuse, not remove user choice.

You talked about when iOS/iphone launched. Youtube did not work on iOS safari back then since it used flash. You're moving the goalposts. Either way you still have not proven that less user choice now somehow leads to more user ch

I remember the IE monoculture, and you know what broke it? Choice. Being able to install firefox, opera (and later chrome and safari) on windows, being able to install icab or other browsers on mac os even when apple shipped IE5 as the defa

And you see that as a reason enough to prevent millions of users from choosing their browser? Are you arguing that diversity of browser engines is important, but we need to stifle/suppress diversity to ensure diversity?

While I hate the tech-giant control of the internet as much as anybody else I don't think that restricting user choice of their browser is at all the right way to fix it. Why do you think that forcing people to use safari/webkit i

Why would you prevent others from choosing the browser they use?

Some people equate blink and webkit because of their shared heritage. I think it has definitely diverged enough to be considered separate engines (like how webkit is considered separate from khtml), but some disagree.

In that case I don't understand why the author didn't go for uuidv7? It seems like existing tooling (both in database and outside) deals with it better, it seems like there are no downsides unless you expect your identifiers to be

I feel like the benchmarks and conclusion did not do any real comparison of uuidv7 vs ulid, and instead only compared uuidv4 and ulid.

IIRC it reads from the same sources as command line tools do, so /proc/, /sys/ etc. So it sits in the same place as `top` or similar.
