Sure, this would be a huge disadvantage. But that is no reason not to have a discussion about it. The HN community relys heavily on analytical services, and there is a bias against privacy advocates or anything that would bring change to ho

Fair enough! But let's separate between session-specific analytics, and lifetime analytics. As a person concerned about privacy, I don't care much about "your" analytics about click-through and how long I stay on your site and what I click

What am I missing? Example 1: Amazon uses a cookie to keep track of login and a shopping cart. -> No popup since they are essential. Example 2: foobar.blog.com uses cookies to track me (ad-banners and analytics). -> Popup to ask for

I still believe Firefox is well on track on the desktop, however, I'm becoming frustrated with it's performance on mobile devices (in my case Android 2.2 Galaxy Tab). And I'm wondering if this is a strategic failure. Firefox is not availabl

Hm, still no win64 build available. I mean they don't have to promote it through their website, just put it on the ftp. Take advantage of the dev-channel for some testing. Yeah, I know, I don't need Flash ...

There is a downside: Your can already download a standalone Tor-Browser bundled with (FF portable), but it still is FF 3.6.17. After a fork, the Tor project will not invest all their resources in keeping up with an enhanced FF release sched

Some people are not blessed with hazel or sky-blue eyes. I can look into a mirror for an hour, and all I can tell is they are not black, and not blue ... They have a color, it's somewhere in between blue/brown/grey/green/... whatever. What

As an extension-developer, I'm wondering about the Aurora strategy. They move forward with nightly and beta, but I did not found anything about what Aurora would do to the user profile, or what would happen to extensions in Aurora. I guess

We believe Apple has learned much from having Netflix on the Apple TV ... Typically I'm very strict on privacy, but on my Apple TV I explicitly enabled the "Send usage information to Apple"-feature . I would really love to see some

I tend to believe it's not a race anymore, and having a strategy is the start of the end. Google should utilize it's manpower on something visionary. I guess I wait for the time, Neal Stephenson's metaverse becomes reality. With all the e

I have similar experiences with Linux in the last couple of month. And I think I understand, why they are not adressed. Excuse the boldness, but Linux install is simply broken. Is it that all the volunteer developers are to busy with other

Isn't that what patents are for? Independent of what you think about patents in general. AFAIK you need a minimal implementation to get a patent granted, which you could do almost alone (a crappy looking one), and one could start from there

Do they enforce the style guide on VCS checkin? Or is anyone of you enforced to do so? (FYI: I'm talking about VCS-guards, who prevent checkin's, if they do not comply with a style guide. Maybe someone can run a poll on that topic.)

Am I the only one happy that WP7 is NOT dead? I very much prefer a threesome! Every mobil user will benefit from this. And this is not like Desktop. Everybody will have to bring their A-Game.

Although $20,000 is a nice pile of money, it does not create a notion of confidence. One more zero would do the job though.

I think FF needs a way to benchmark extensions. It's true, without SSD, FF3.X cold-start is not what it should be. However, many users do face an interesting dilema. They complain about slow startup time, and at the same time, call themself

AFAIK this is the first browser (no extensions, on win7), that finally got the tabs into the titlebar (Fitts's law). The whole upper screen border, a huge mouse target, now does focus the tabs. I do software long enough to know that this i
