Are you really able to scan all the results in a few milliseconds? Even the 10ms in TFA is too low. I personally wouldn't mind (or probably even notice) a delay of 100 ms.

The browser itself is some kind of app store, and we run app from it all the time without Apple's review. Given this, I'm not sure why Apple and its fanboys make so much of this supposed security of the AppStore

I guess they mean you need to identify specific people, at a specific place and time, who are desperate for a solution to some problem. They are desperate usually because it is a problem that affects their bottom line, prevents them compl

The bomb would have been developed one way or the other, no matter what. The time was ripe for it.

Man, the whole war was horrific. The Japanese did things that were arguably even more horrific than the bomb; read up on unit 731 and the rape of Nanjing. I'm sure those who experienced those things would have far preferred dying in a

Yes, I understand that Japan gave up, not so much because of the bomb, but mostly because of the Soviet invasion and capture of Manchuria (and the implied threat of an invasion of the mainland), after the war in Europe had been won. But I s

Yeah, starting MacOS, with apps set to restore windows, is an exercise in frustration for the first minute or two. I try to work on the app I want, only to be constantly interrupted by many windows that keep popping up and stealing the focu

This windows rules feature seems to be bug ridden. Yesterday I struggled with it all day. Rules were not being followed properly, were erased mysteriously, etc. I like KDE a lot, but this part of it needs work.

I think slowly Node is shaping up to offer strong competition to Bun.js, Deno, etc. such that there is little reason to switch. The mutual competition is good for the continued development of JS runtimes

You made factually incorrect claims that were debunked, like this: > There are massive convenience features that native apps support which aren’t available to browser APIs. Auth, payments, notifications, parental controls, power efficien

Why are people still using Meta's products? Their products are among the most unbelievably user-hostile things I come across on the web; I wonder why there hasn't been a revolt yet against them

Exactly, web apps are superior in most ways to mobile apps for the user experience, but only if vendors support the web and stop actively trying to make it like apps are the better option. The preference for apps is a learned behavior, not

Just a Debian desktop. I think I need a full VM, since I am working on stuff that require a fully isolated environment.

Eh, not sure what massive buttons you are on about. I only see normally sized buttons. I for one appreciate the thoughtfulness of not making everything so tiny that it becomes like a game of targeting UI elements, when we have massive scree

The KDE UI is actually a marvel of consistency, thoughtfulness, configurability, and beauty, IMO. For your complaint, have you thought about the fact that those buttons are very useful when running in a virtualized environment (which many p

GNOME is ugly, to me. Personally I think KDE is the pinnacle of Linux desktops. Might be a bit heavy, but there is no other Linux desktop I think comes close to it in the level of polish and aesthetics, and I've used a lot of them. I c
