Hasn't been implemented yet, but Mozilla supports this proposal and plans to implement it: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1969396

> This includes fetching all sub-resources like CSS, JavaScript, and images, and executing the JavaScript. So not necessarily any website, because that could cause issues if one of the prerendered pages runs side-effectful JavaScript.

Like it or not, the current web standardization process requires implementations to be shipped in multiple browsers before something can enter the spec.

Figma? Fast and snappy? It runs impressively well for a web app, but I still get multi-second freezes all the time on high-end hardware.

"Precarious" strikes me as a misleading way to describe a nuclear-armed state (and the only nuclear-armed state in its region).

by rafram 1y ago
Thanks, I misread your first comment. That makes sense. Yeah, not a great system, especially because it turns phone numbers into semi-sensitive personal information that you also give out to every single person you ever meet.

by rafram 1y ago
Oh, that makes sense.

Sure, but your add-ons will need access to some of the world, which right now requires giving them access to all of WASI, as far as I know. There’s no permissions model. That’s worse than the JVM. (It seems like they want to implement o

Yes, I discussed WASI in my comment. It has maybe 1% of the feature set of the JRE/.NET core libraries, and I think that’s a generous estimate.

Not really, because the scene you want to capture is there at that moment and probably wouldn’t be there anymore if you went back to the apartment/hotel/camera store and swapped out for a technically better kit. That’s what the

Yeah, the US approach where low-volume traffic lights turn to flashing red (treated like a stop sign) late at night seems to work fine.

You use line feeds (\n) to instruct your teletype machine to feed in one more line of paper. Unless you're trying to argue that your text editor is a teletype machine, then line feeds are the wrong thing to use.

> You can even build something as sophisticated as a custom command palette with Elements Well, yeah, because they added an `<el-command-palette>` that specifically does that.

That's totally fair. The OP seems to be intended for your main page logic: > TypeScript is still second-class citizen with regards to browser adoption, there is a proposal to fix that, but until then we have to use tooling, bundlers

> The compiler is about 730k compressed Thanks, you're right, I was looking at the unminified version. Minified is 3.4 MB uncompressed, 730 KB compressed. That's still crazy considering that you could avoid it by compiling your

OK, well, you're commenting on a list that primarily addresses the US.

The US already has the highest incarceration rate of any developed country, and it's not even close (we're #5, slotting in right behind Turkmenistan). Your solution to society's ills seems to be more "punishment." D

Pickpocketing isn't really an issue in US cities like it is in Europe. I've heard of it happening a tiny bit in extremely busy tourist areas like Times Square in NYC, but it's not something you need to be vigilant about in ev

Yeah, you get the exact same results in two separate incognito sessions in stock Chrome. They don't immediately add your fingerprint to their database. (And that site isn't using the state of the art in fingerprinting - check htt

The fact that the properties are randomized (and which properties are randomized) identifies the extension that you’re using, and if that extension has like 10 users, that uniquely identifies you across sites. All of this is overkill anyw

by rafram 1y ago
And if the site loads 100 iframes, it can figure out the distribution of values that your browser returns, which doesn’t change, and is likely to be close to unique until many people are using the same setup as you. (Or it can just use prop

What makes you think that? The top 9 have all happened in New York City; most of them were pushed through by our current, fairly moderate mayor. They're not pipe dreams.

You're confusing IDFA with Do Not Track.

by rafram 1y ago
This most likely makes you more identifiable, not less, until a critical mass of people are using a browser with the exact same randomness properties.

Not really sure what point this is making. If you’ve spend years struggling to survive, starving and wasting away in a walled ghetto, and now you’re standing by a pit, facing armed soldiers intent on killing you… would you really have the w
