I mean, I expect ICANN to exist for much longer than Brave will.

Eh, I can't see how your comment is relevant ti the parent thread. Creating a CLI in Go is barely more complicated than JS. Rust, probably, but people aren't asking for that.

Absolutely false. I have driven many hours at posted speed limits on highway in the rightmost lane in the US, and I yet need to hear one honk. And I have seen cars driving even slower -- absolutely no problem. Anyone that wants to move fast

True, but AFAIK Waymo strictly follows speed limits.

If someone reports a translation error, how do you verify and fix it? Especially those tricky ones that have no direct translation and require deep understanding of the language?

People who install Firefox on iOS is likely a very small number. If I were the project manager of Firefox, and with such limited resources and Google's cash going away any day, I would not put in any work either.

I think they are extremely rare, and I would rather just use my mobile data instead of giving them my phone number. Definitely does not happen on "free trials" on in-flight Wi-Fi for obvious reasons.

What about people who are not in Europe? And for US carriers, you are basically locked out of Wi-Fi calling if you are not using one of the whitelisted devices.

From first hand experience, I can confirm that AppCloud is installed on certain carrier versions of S series phone as well.

Thanks for mentioning this! I saw it but never put much thoughts into it. Now it seems a huge security risk/active security exploit. Strangely enough, I cannot reproduce this now. I'll see when it happens again, and if I can unins

User can uninstall via adb (computer required).

I can assure you that they do the same thing with flagship phones, especially carrier versions of the phones -- speaking from first hand experience. I have seen notifications from apps I have never heard of multiple times. That's what

Curious -- why adblocks like uBlock Origin are not very effective at streaming services like Netflix/Hulu (at least the last time I tried)?

Well, in my experience, the most important thing to worry about is whether the driver is there in the first place.

Was a Wave user, and to this day I can't believe Google botched their opportunity to build their Slack/Teams years before those products existed. Of course, hindsight blah blah. Still, this tells me having the right ideas or the t

About a decade ago I started watching Star Wars movies for the first time, when there were "only" 6 movies to finish. But by then there were already 12+ Star Trek movies plus TV series. I decided that I'd "choose" S

Star Wars and Star Trek mean very little to people outside "Western" countries. If you go to China, most people won't understand a thing about Star Wars, including computer nerds/science fiction fans. And they live their

And nobody mentions "developers forced to redesign and reimplement their app UI for no good reason" as part of the cost. Of course fanboys couldn't care less about that.

Eh... 15billion is a lot of money.

I really like the idea of LineageOS but got tired with fighting SafetyNet (or whatever the name is today) and playing cat and mouse game on a previous phone. I just can't have an everyday phone where 20 different things don't work

It's not a killer until it's verified to work, and makes a better product than those that use APIs. From a user's perspective, nobody cares about whether it's on-device or not unless cost is directly involved.

No vscode, no deal. I don't see that happening any time soon.

App development could be as quickly as a few weeks. If the only "killer apps" we have seen in the past three years are the ChatGPT kind, I'm not holding my breath for a brand new "killer app" that runs only on iPhon

Developers could be adding a feature utilizing LLMs to their existing app that already has a large user base. This could be a matter of a few weeks from an idea ti shipping the feature. While competitors use API calls to just "get thin

It's almost funny that small code reviews are preferred in software engineering ( https://google.github.io/eng-practices/review/developer/smal... ), but in Congress we have these stupid "big beautiful
