What Porat is describing sounds a lot like what is described in this old book I've been reading called Mirror Worlds by David Gelernter. I think it was published in 1991. It has some pretty interesting ideas, although I don't thin

I tried that addon, and it is not the same thing. Panorama was an overlay, but this opens a new tab to view your groups. This doesn't really work when you have hundreds of tabs. I'm pretty sure that the old Panorama view is not po

This reminds me a lot of Firefox tab groups/panorama which was removed a few years ago. I like the history idea, there are some really good ideas there. I tried finding something in my history on Firefox recently and it was an awful ex

That's really impressive. I'm always amazed at what people are able to do with 3d printers. The other day I read someone used his 3d printer as a plotter, and was working on getting it to write letters.

Corporations are amoral. All of their actions are self-serving and should be viewed as such. While a particular action (such as this one) may be good for consumers, this is merely a side effect and not the intention.

I hadn't heard of interpassivity before. It's an interesting concept and I think that it fits my own experience. Interpassivity is truthy.

NEETs might provide a strong example that this is the default of human leisure. In my experience most NEETs lament their lack of motivation. It's possible that their depression is a result of adverse societal pressure, but I posit that

I used VimFX before and I'm using Vimium now. It's okay, but it works nowhere near as well as VimFX did. The biggest problem is that it doesn't work until a page has loaded. So if I open a page and while it's loading I w

First, they didn't own Pocket when it was first integrated. Second, for years Firefox removed features like tab groups in order to make the browser easier to maintain because that functionality could be added as a plugin. Then they for

Somewhat related, I've been thinking of how to speed up git on hosts with limited resources. As an example, the firefox repo has a 275MB index file which has to be loaded whenever you want to read the repository. On a host with 1GB of

Yes, federation would be great for git. I just hope that an open protocol is designed rather than something GitLab specifc. GitLab takes a lot of resources to self-host.

If you self-host you will probably never get outside contributions. For most people it isn't worth taking the time to figure out whatever system you use. I'd like to see a federated system like GNUsocial/Mastodon for git. I&#

What fork are you using and do you use any extensions to manage that many tabs? I have a similar workflow on current Firefox but I find managing that many tabs difficult. I used to use tab groups for this.
