It is a best practice (and required by certain WCAG 2.0 guidelines) to allow users to adjust the text size to meet their needs. The 2.1 AA guideline says that websites must scale up to 400% and still be usable. In CSS, I almost entirely use

Sorry, that’s just not what happened. I think there’s an important lesson in what happened to Mozilla, so I think it is worth clarifying. Chrome didn’t start from scratch (they used WebKit to start) and they didn’t overtake them overnight.

Question: If I have the core experiment enabled, should I uninstall that before installing this one? Why isn't this under Test Pilot?

Because it is safe enough for most people to keep their friends out of their phones, and faster+easier to use than typing in a passphrase. It is also safer than not using a password, which I'm sure some people still do.

Gasoline engines aren't going away for a while; even when every self-driving car is electric, there will be a market for people who want gasoline engines. If it gives a bump in fuel economy to the next (last?) generation of gasoline an

Yup. It's a got to be about balance, though. Personally I find their app fast enough, and it never ·rarely) gives me issues.

I remember letting wolfram|Alpha solve some problems, then reading the steps it took to get there. They weren't always the most "human" approaches, but there was something to learn from it as well. Poor-man's (student) t

Wasn't the idea behind create Alphabet that Google would focus on Search-related stuff, while the parent company could create all these wild IoT products?

That's quite the hyperbole. The performance gains that come with newer browsers (generally) should allow websites to run on older hardware. Not to mention support for new protocols and compression that lead to smaller assets being sent

Neat. Although the rendered text isn't screen-reader accessible. An aria-label with the text content would solve this, though.
