That's frustrating, I'm sorry! I don't experience anything like that, and I have over a thousand tabs open in Firefox on NixOS. Based on https://frame.work/linux Ubuntu 24.04 is the minimum supported version

Boolean constructs certainly aren't sacred, and we have a million synonyms for both yes and no should the need arise. Civilization will certainly not fall apart if language changes again, as it has for the entire history of spoken lang

No, nothing is sacred. I'll note the "literally" case in GP is arguably even more of a flip than drop. The only way for a human language to stay the same is for people to stop speaking it, i.e. Latin - France has trouble keep

Nope, I'm completely unaffiliated with Kagi, just a happy customer for a year and a half or so. I don't understand all of your objections, but it sounds like you're operating in a very strict "if I can't verify it m

You think the lesson that the president of a democratic country is amassing power and becoming less Democratic is to just go all the way and remove democracy? I'll additionally note that China has famously not handled some of its major

Do you have any evidence that they collect your data? They go so far as to have an API to generate cryptographic proof of subscription tokens without revealing your identity for searching when using Tor, etc ( https://help.kagi.c

The existing killer app for WebRTC is video chat without installing an app, which is huge. Other P2P uses are very cool and interesting as well - abusing it for fingerprinting is just that, abusing a user-positive feature and twisting it fo

Panamax works great for mirroring all of crates.io in 300-400GB, which is big but easily small enough for enthusiasts. I've got it on an external USB drive myself, and it's saved my bacon a few times. We're not yet to that s

This is a bit of an aside, but I see this take a lot and I think it's subtly wrong. Web client side encryption eliminates fully passive snooping on the server side, but of course does nothing for actively subverting the served encrypti

It's not that simple either - normally, if you're doing some loops over a large array of pixels, say, to perform some operation to them, there will only be a couple of bounds checks before the loop starts, checking the starting an

Presumably, most to all of your dependencies will be in nixpkgs already, so you don't have to maintain them.

I'm curious if there are any good benchmarks of ChaCha8 (as advocated for in the "Too Much Crypto" paper https://eprint.iacr.org/2019/1492.pdf ) vs hardware-accelerated AES. The best I could find was a r

Yes, I use search engine(s) constantly - namely Kagi, which really does feel like Google used to. I tried using LLMs for a recent project of mine when I was trying to figure out if something was possible, and they were actively misleading,

From my perspective, Google Fiber 100% disrupted connectivity - it woke the incumbents up and made them offer competitive Fiber. In that sense, they succeeded! My last three connections from my last three ISPs have all been gigabit (one of
