Compared to both of them Chrome was technically miles better as well. And no, Firefox was stagnant. It actually saved web from IE.

It sends crash reports automatically.

I tried Firefox again, immediately encountered several crashes on youtube streaming and a few other places. Chrome it is for me.

It is not implemented, and ad blocking still works. Also they recently announced more changes to the proposal. To be fair they have some good reasons to change existing api. World is not ending yet.

Email is not something private by design. At least Google is a competent company when it comes to provide such services.

Theoretocally it might use signals when you are logged in, but Recaptcha also works when you are not logged into google. So, not really.

It is technically better and license wise infinitely better.

Fwiw, I don't see it as surveillance, it is trusting your data with them, might seem similar but a little bit different. Google in general a very good steward of private data if not the best. They don't sell it and provide tools t

So you came up with 2 things, first one is actually a good feature and second one is meh and world is going down? HN is utter ridiculous nowadays.

Hysteria of HN is hilarious.

In this case Chrome was actually miles better and secure than those old browsers though. It wasn't deceiving, it was the truth.

Can you point us where Guava library team made such claims?

Eh, If they want, they can train Alpha zero in one day Leela can be trained in 10 years. In any case indeed Leela's progress is impressive.

by mda 7y ago
Pretty sure Alpha zero would destroy Leela.

Not anymore though. Everything is encrypted now.

Actually I see no reason for humans to be any better for these tasks.

I think all things considered, today Chromium is probably 90% Google engineering. There is almost no Khtml code left and big chunks of webkit code are heavily modified and rewritten. Also, rendering engine is not the browser.

Probably just the rotten smell that comes from their business model.

I would not classify Brave as anything good.

If gun is ready to fire, with toes it is possible, but not plausible.

This would probably be classified as terrorism and have some dire consequences.

Blink is mostly developed by Google and generally Google calls the shots for the project.

Yet, AMD looks way better considering all vulnerabilities reported so far. Why downplay this fact?
565.
by mda 7y ago
They have completely different architectures, some optimizations can be done in safer ways.

Anything? How so? They are bound by their legal disclaimers and laws. Which prohibits many options automatically.
567.
by mda 7y ago
How are they same? Single source you trust versus multiple unknown parties having your data.

by mda 7y ago
Bullshit, So far most vulnerabilities only affected Intel. Because of their choices in their design. AMD is way better, so far.
569.
by mda 7y ago
Sure, but please don't downplay this, so far Intel CPU's are affected by way more vulnerabilities that could be exploited much easily. It is a no brainer to pick if I have to choose between AMD and Intel today.

I think there is an expectation that Intel's new generation CPUs wont have these vulnerabilities and they will sell these a lot more to replace the piece of crap they have sold for ridiculous prices. Intel is actually probably happy ab
