The changes are pretty tame and most Western users who dislike the current web features built in the shell can safely feel like they're not missing much on anything.

Reminds me of firewalls with a huge backlist, but they don't block known VPNs.

This is nitpicking but Windows 10, while annoyingly buggy during development (they dropped their QA for windows insiders during that period), was a return back to sanity after Windows 8's UI.

The timers' typography is absurd. Material Design was already too space-inefficient to my taste, but this one overdoes its predecessor. The worst of it all is that this is clearly a mobile design system and yet desktops, laptops &

Indeed, Copilot within Visual Studio is nowhere close as good as Copilot within VSCode, and even that is still worse than Cursor in my experience.

They switched to hardware acceleration in the last few years and they removed the toggle to disable it. It still sucks (perf & rendering issues, eg. scrollbar not updating when scrolling) and there's no way to go back to the old re

I was about to make that argument. Functioning but almost to the brink of death. They are overburdened, and the new staff coming from immigrants isn’t as good. It is a huge concern nowadays.

Looking at PowerToys, they would probably turn it into a WinUI slug. I wonder what hardware the WinUi devs run it on.

It does seem like there are more well made, premium apps on Mac. I’ve always been jealous. Eventually a clone is made that supports Windows, but it always seems a bit worse.

They offer a lifetime pricing tier, which will obviously removed in a few years if the company still exists. I wonder why a SaaS would even bother.

Would this even survive the coming change of administration? Why attempt this now?

It’s the first time I’ve seen the number of employees as a concern, the focus is actually the size of the budget and its deficit.

Google search is about to be made irrelevant by AI, and yes I believe it is a stretch to compare Google's search "monopoly" to Microsoft's browser monopoly of yore.

Fine, I thought the context was obviously Google's search engine monopoly. > ruled that the tech giant has illegally maintained a monopoly through the billions of dollars in annual payments it makes to partners to secure the default

Government contracts are a snake pit. It's the first thing that disillusioned completely from government efficiency. It has an insane degree of collusion and overbilling.

Oh this is interesting. Tia Portal v19 has this clunky capability in which you can export, edit, reimport all scripts of a project via a vscode extension that communicates with the Tia Portal process. All that effort just to have better aut

Ah, I thought it was something new, perhaps offering a IDE built on modern tech. It looks like it's built on old Win32 common controls, surely with poor text editing features. I wonder who's going to be the first to integrate some

It's not just Elon. Michael Shellenberger & TheFP for example has been reporting on this as well. You might not be impressed by the censorship happening in your country, but it's certainly worrying. I wouldn't know what t

Brazil is being overtaken by politicians who think they are above Brazil's constitution, which is quite catastrophic since Brazil seemed to be a good (?) republic.

There's a huge surge of investment into Nuclear these last few years. Innovation is starting again in that sector, I wouldn't bet against it.

Same thing in Canada, as a google search tells me that "Ozempic costs between $200 and $300 per month in Canada." But that doesn't tell us anything about the reasons behind the pricing strategy US drug companies are using.

Every few months they announce a new lithium mine. I don’t think this matters at all.
