I used Chrome for 8 years prior. I didn't miss a thing after the switch except my autocomplete/history, which I built back up over a few weeks. You sound like you haven't actually used Firefox recently. If you have, then mayb

What a weird reply. I think I'd especially notice any glaring problems, seeing as I use it every day for web dev. The only issues I've had is that devtools will sometimes completely crash, giving me a white window, requiring me to

I've been using Firefox for the past 2 years and I've had no such problems.

I misread the OP. I thought it was $49/mo, not $49/mo/user.

This. You'll want to charge at least $1k/mo for enterprise. They take a lot of back and forth. Mostly due to security and compliance questionnaires. But once it's done, it's generally gravy. Always do Net30 or Net45. Pee

Very cool. Can you point me to the main game loop? I usually start from there when reading source code for games, but I'm having trouble finding yours. Probably just my inexperience, but any links would be great.

Yes! I've been waiting for this for years! -- or rather, my customers have. Super stoked for Portals, and to see Retool move outside of the internal tooling niche. Looking perfect for small, customer-facing licensing portals.

Ah. I guess I wasn't up to speed on WebAuthn.

How is my Yubikey Nano both something I know, and something I have? It requires no input other than touching it (which anybody can do). No PIN, no prompt. To me, that's only something I have, not something I know. I saw a Yubikey liste

Threads can't even calculate active users yet. They launched a week ago. Sign ups != active users.

Fixing bugs in open source software, instead of reporting it and letting the maintainers fix it when they're able. Doing that helped me understand how to quickly familiarize myself with a code base, gave me confidence that my code is a

I'm aware that OSI believes it has a monopoly on the term. I was more polling the general tech population on their own internal definition of open source. I may have worded the poll poorly -- I tried to avoid imparting any preconceived

It's been exactly one day so of course all users are active users.

But what about BSL? Or SSPL? Or ELv2? Where is the real line drawn? At OSI's stamp of approval, or is it more nuanced?

Took me awhile to remember what it was called, but TinyPilot [^0] by mtlynch is pretty cool. Michael sometimes writes about running a hardware business on his blog [^1]. Not exactly a startup, but a small business. [^0]: https://

It's possible via a custom validation. I just added a test for that to showcase how: https://github.com/keygen-sh/typed_params/commit/e56fe479f26...

But that's not at all what the ELv2, SSPL, or BSL licenses say. At many times, they're more permissive than GPL.

It's literally just word-play, dancing around what they actually mean. I'd assume because of pressure from OSI and friends (i.e. bad publicity), not from the real world. The same reason my company is "open, source-available.&
