1. Come without vendor lock in. 2. Format is human readable so it can actually be integrated in a proper development cycle (git, etc). 3. Doesn't make it a nightmare to do custom things where needed. It is not impossible. Out the to

People like that are often still considered "technical" by the majority of people out there. Registering your nickname is still something that is more involved than sign up for any other web based chat service in the modern era. N

To be honest, that likely had little to do with Selenium (although there were fewer options around back then) but more with the expectations around the tests. UI front-end tests are often brittle because people try to test things through th

Nope, or at the very least, much more complex than just that. Firefox is developed by the Mozilla Corporation, a for-profit corporation. This corporation is a wholly owned subsidiary of the 501(c)(3) nonprofit Mozilla Foundation. In order

I do agree. I am familiar with three levels of listening, but in a slightly different way where the three levels are more about where your focus is as a listener. Roughly it comes down to: 1. Listening but focussed on yourself, interjecting

Yeah I have the same experience with Firefox. I guess that their limited budgets has something to do with that. As well as context. I mostly ran into this with webextensions and various cases that a lot of extension developers likely run in

What you probably need to factor in is that there is no complete turnover every year. Some people might spend multiple seasons there, or at the very least return on a regular basis for research. Then there is also support staff who might wo

Controllers that cheap generally are made of terrible creeky plastic, mushy buttons and generally poor assembly. You can get decent retro styled USB controllers, but they will be a bit more expensive than this one.

There is no doubt the Cybertruck is a joke in regard to safety in many areas. But, looking at the videos a little I am not sure how some of the things shown are different from any other car. Specifically where he slams the door shut, no sen

To be fair, that was also a much lighter web. Even if you remove all the heavy javascript overload modern webpages will be heavier simply due to higher resolution images and other media. It also highly depends on what you want to browse. HN

Tunneling is indeed expensive, if that is how this will be build. Given that the footprint of such a system likely will be relatively small it might just be build in the same way we build other underground infrastructure of a similar size.
