I just got an X1 extreme, and although windows 10 pro really underwhelmed me (not very responsive, poor battery life, etc), putting linux on this thing has been an absolute dream. The battery life easily matches my old macbook air, and the

Whatever country I live in, I certainly didn't choose to be born there, and moving to another country is often more expensive than is possible for most people. I don't see how this compares to actively seeking a job at Facebook. I

If anyone who works at Facebook reads this, I am so very curious, when you're asked to build something like this, how do you approach that morally? I really want to know the opinion of someone actually working there.

That's an excellent use of e-cigs. The issue is the companies that stuff enormous amounts of nicotine into their e-cigs and then claiming that it "helps people quit smoking" only because they're even more addicted to the

Very nice numbers, although worth mentioning hermes only appears to support es5, so there's way less stuff to load.

Interestingly, V8 (the JS engine) is actively finishing up its own implementation of 32 bit pointer compression. https://bugs.chromium.org/p/v8/issues/detail?id=7703

I just got an x1 extreme, and although it takes a bit more fiddling than an x1 carbon to get running with Linux, it's an amazing experience after my macbook air. Hackers, if you want to move away from the mac ecosystem, take a look at

This is a lot of FUD. Making a browser is hard, and making a modular browser is harder. It's clearly on their list of things to do, but it's behind all the other "making a browser" things.

I'm really sad that I lost my gist on this, but I was working on a system in Node.js for defining the capabilities of modules in an es module graph (as you suggest) where there might not be defined package boundaries. The implementatio

V8 provides some protections against spectre-like attacks, but that's not specific to deno, as Node.js uses V8 as well. "Secure" in this case refers to being able to not give deno access to the network or filesystem.

Make sure you have a resolver mode (trr.mode) that matches your comfort! 0 = use whatever the default is (one of the below) 1 = race DoH and regular dns and use whichever replies first 2 = try DoH and then fall back to regular dns 3 = only

My experience with the wasmer entity has been and continues to be that it is just copying/repackaging stuff other people do to get VC money. Something of this sort was done a long time ago with pypy[1] and more recently CPython[2] 1:

This is an excellent analysis of JS performance and usage, although it seems to suggest optimizing your site for V8 a bit too much. Also, the "LONG TASKS MONOPOLIZE THE MAIN THREAD. BREAK 'EM UP!" section header felt a bit on

Putting a click element on a div is transparent to accessibility systems. And no, it isn't possible to consider an element with an onclick the same as a button, because events bubble, which means the element with the event listener isn

There are ARIA attributes which let you customize the advertised meaning/intent of an element, but there is nothing to, say, mark that a particular location on the page should be considered a button. As far as I'm aware, this matc
