And Twitter of course. You'd have the best chance of success if someone could have a feed of everything they already read on Twitter, with other sources seamlessly integrated in. Perhaps even have the browser fetch all the data, withou

The existing Outlook works pretty well in FF. In fact, I used it there right until I discovered that in new Edge I can have it as a standalone app on my taskbar - exactly the feature FF announced last week that they have no intention of imp

Totally agree. And also, chances are it won't be Electron, at least on Windows. These guys literally made the OS, they know how to use a native webview.

Kind of missing the point. They're saying there's no excuse not to use s/MIME since it's in all modern software, and the fact that the modern software they mention isn't so modern any more only strengthens the point

It sounds a lot like Laravel Livewire[1] Also a lot like React Server Components that we saw on HN yesterday[2] It seems like this is the next wave of web apps. Hopefully once the hype settles, we'll be able to decide which approach is

Yes. And while you're at it, use double line spacing in your IDE too. You can feel the strain lessen.

Right. But I can't think of a good sentence that starts with 'if' and contains 'or else'. It could be that the 'if' is implied if you say 'or else'. But 'otherwise' works fine following

This blew my mind. Not the answer, but the question - I'm a native English speaker, how did I never notice that else makes no sense? Clearly I've been programming for far too long :) EDIT: Thinking about it a bit more, "or

I don't think the vote was rigged. But rationally I have no way to be 100% certain, because, as a thought experiment, if it really was rigged, what would look different to how it does look? The fact that "everyone knew" and w

I read a fascinating article about Newton's studies in theology[1], particularly Jewish sources and the Jewish Temple. It's based on papers currently in Israel's National Archives[2]. He very much used the same scientific tec

I wonder why Microsoft haven't done this themselves? Seems like a no-brainer with their new hug-a-Linux image. I can't see much strategic reason to keep it proprietary.

The three MPs who signed the letter are Conservative, Labour and SNP. And those three hardly ever agree on anything , so this clearly cuts across party lines.

The simplest solution might be to detect that a question is heading in that direction, and refuse to answer it. I.e. filtering on the question rather than the answer. And erring on the side of caution is probably prudent. I'm guessing

What they have in common is that the people ordering it are not the people using it. These companies focus on the former, who want different things to the latter. Which sucks for the users but it makes sense for the vendors.

If I understand it right (which I am by no means sure of), I think you write React code, but it runs on the server, with full DB access etc., and it sends the static HTML to the browser. Kind of like Laravel Livewire[1], but for React. Ever

They had me until point 5. Yes, systemic race and gender discrimination are most definitely real and most definitely problems. No, you don't have to tie it in to everything . I do agree with their main point though. It is indeed unequ
