Microsoft Edge's source code isn't available. We don't know really know what kind of stuff they patch in. It's just that Google keeps most stuff in Chrome open.

They do: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/api/p... But yeah, having that build into your browser is a huge advantage over having to nag your users to install an extension or worse c

I doubt this will work. Web browsers have an insanely large scope. Building a general purpose competitive web browser takes hundreds of full time engineers. I can't imagine you can fund such a thing with donations.

Do you have a rough idea whether doing this on the GPU is worth it on mobile devices with regards to energy consumption? I imagine many typical web and UI toolkit uses of this aren't limited by raw performance.

In the comparison it seems like Skia is quite a bit faster on the CPU than your solution, but at the cost of some robustness. Is this actually something that matters for typical applications like web browsers or UI toolkits?

Even large cities in Eastern Europe have shrinking or stagnant populations. I hear housing in West Virginia is pretty affordable as well.

As far as I know a native Chromium port to iOS is well under way. Whether Google will release Chrome is a different question, but I think it's likely. I think Google would love to bring Blink Chrome on iOS everywhere and there is a dec

I think it depends on what solution space you are willing to explore. There is the possibility for regulatory action that restricts native ads. It's seems plausible that a flood of AI content tanks the prices for native ads, so some mi

Without comparison to the accuracy of crowed sourced blocklists it's not that valuable. Maybe there is a group of hopelessly overworked blocklist maintainers/contributors, that I'm not aware of. If so, their cries for help d

The training data for ChatGPT is so vast, that there is a fair chance it contained a very similar example. I mean it’s genuinely hard to come up with math problems that aren’t either very difficult or have well known solutions.

Except we need to use electricity for heating and the availability of solar inversely correlates with demand for heating and wind isn’t really able to make up for it. Because the effect is seasonal neighboring regions can’t really help each

From my admittedly limited experience KMM is a complete mess. There doesn't seem to be a reasonable feature set across platforms. Even the standard library has massive holes, forcing you to littler your code with expect/actuals e

Using top down regulation by app stores seems like a better way to deal with the issue of apps refusing to work without a permission that don't really need. Imagine the amount of needless support requests that will be triggered by peop

I used to think that as long as all you needed to do was some web browsing that older or underspeced machines were fine. But in the last few years websites have become insanely resource intensive. Even using something as seemingly simple as

I don’t get how people jump from “it doesn’t work sometimes” to “never use it”. You can write raw sql when the ORM fails. But for many queries the ORM does work, so why not use it?

We have to stop talking about resolution only in terms of being able to see pixels. Not being able to see pixels is not the final limit to human vision. If it was 4k monitors and TVs would have never become a thing. There are other aspects

Limiting access and monitoring financial services is one of the most powerful tools against organized crime, terror and corruption, tax evasion etc. So yeah, I think the lawful part is crucial. There is of course lot's of room for disc

Yes, but so is all electricity, because the law only considers local emissions. This might seem counterproductive given how coal heavy the German grid is, but unless customers are able to produce 65% of their required energy via solar panel

If you want high level abstractions use tools that provide those. But because GPUs are complicated and come with lots of caveats (see other comments) library authors need the comparatively low level access

I'm excited and afraid at the same time. Excited for all the stuff the community will come up with that wasn't possible on the app store, but afraid that some apps I rely on will leave the App Store to do evil things.

My scenario was triggering a Firebase backup once a day, but being to cheap to upgrade to the paid plan, that does it. (There also isn't an easy way to cap costs with Firebase). I actual backup is handled by a serverless function (in m

It's macOS alright. The addition of a weather app is great. Otherwise I feel like macOS has mostly regressed since the redesign with Big Sur. I still miss the old design and performance has steadily declined with each version. Stage ma

I actually like the way Apple is doing these things. There is almost always a way to achieve the same things using established patterns, that takes slightly longer and is a little less convenient. It's not like you can't use an iP

I think it's plausible that the superfluous hirings are caused by hirings of key individuals. It's quite common for these big tech companies to poach each others department heads and other key personnel. This can cause significant
