   It’s been working well for me since the first 13 release, and I have (as of today) 67616 items, about 2k5 videos. I’m glad I don’t have to debug stuff like that :P

   Assuming the US still has "first to invent", they've got a year to file their patent application IIRC.

   Does this work in Safari for anyone? I've tried on iMac, iPhone and iPad. Only Firefox/MacOS works for me.

   I suppose you could run your trusted applications in the top-most Windows instance without mitigations, and run untrusted applications in a virtualized Windows instance with mitigations enabled. Wouldn't be pretty or very practical, bu

   Yes, it's not uncomplicated. There's a guy somewhere in Sweden running his house in this way - he's got a bunch of hydrogen tubes in the basement that get filled up during summer. He's obviously an enthusiast and has pai

   Is it possible to apply the mitigations on an per-application level in Windows? IMHO it'd be pretty useful to be able have them on by default, but disable them for specific applications where you care about maximum performance and know

   Storing hydrogen for seasonal use could be neat. Split water using summer sun, use hydrogen to generate electricity in winter.

   Huh. When they talked about notarization at WWDC it sounded like it'd be available as a free service for anyone, but I might be misremembering.

    Yes, something like that! Except also remove support for old-style cookies, which from a quick scan that spec doesn't do.

    I would replace cookies with a browser controlled session id, 128 random bits encoded as hex.

    Seems like it's Windows and Linux only, at least according to the (outdated) web, and the download page.

    Apparently BBEdit used to cost $269, now it's $49.99. Some things have gotten cheaper over the years.

    I'm using an LG OLED TV (2018 model I think) with an Apple TV, and it's working pretty much exactly like a dumb screen. I haven't connected the TV to the network, and I control everything with the Apple TV remote - it turns o

    The problem for e.g. Facebook, Reddit and other link aggregation sites is that they have a very non-specific audience - which is fine for e.g. Coca Cola that want everyone to see their ads, but impractical for small advertisers that want to

    There are (in Sweden at least, I suppose everywhere else too) two types of dates: "best before" and "last day of use". The "best before" kind of date is the most common one by far, and it's used on things

    I don’t know their reasoning, but it’s a pretty attractive deal for would-be parents which could make recruiting easier. And it’s probably partly brand building, which could allocate money from the advertising budget?

    Volvo is (going to?) offer all employees worldwide the equivalent of Swedish benefits: 480 days, of which 90 are barely paid and the rest at 80% with a limit at around lower middle class income (many companies top up to 80% of actual pay).
