The gateway is a proof of concept for the "Web Thing API" https://iot.mozilla.org/wot/ that will let you chat with all the things in your home. It is an open alternative to the closed HomeKit and Android Home

People who dismiss this effort so quickly should actually spend a little time to discover what is actually happening here. It is really disheartening to see so many negative comments about Mozilla without any substantial deeper comments abo

Just a reminder that if you want the WebKit team to be aware of bugs or things that do not properly work or features/standards that need to be better supported, file bugs at https://bugs.webkit.org They also have a mailing

I'm happy to pay a premium to never again have to deal with xorg.conf. All platforms come with a cost.

That is right. I fill in the fields, then submit the change and nothing happens and it jumps back to DHCP. Always have to just edit the network settings manually.

Thank goodness that Linux is consistent and has no bugs :-) Ubuntu still doesn't let me change my IP address to a static one via the UI and video drivers still crash or result in hours of googling and reading contradicting articles on

Same here. My only reboots have been for system & security updates. No kernel panics. Stable as a rock.

The 'finally' makes me sad. As if the Air was a bad machine. I still use my 2010 (!!) MacBook Air 11" as a travel laptop and it is still a fantastic little machine. I did put a new battery in it, but it still works fine for b

Why was this downvoted? I think this is a valid argument. There are plenty of small teams or individuals who have been managing a bunch of small services. Before this was called microservices.

This is a major financial crime. Why are they talking to their ISP to get details instead of involving the authorities for an actual investigation? Where is the police report? Who is investigating this?

You think Brave does not send telemetry :-) On iOS it links to Fabric and Crashlytics. Both of those did not pass Mozilla's strict data collection rules. I'd love to use them in our mobile products, but they collect too much data,

Or you can put a sniffer on the line, or read the source code, or read the code for the receiving end. Or .. just talk to someone on the team and ask questions. Mozilla is incredibly open and transparent. Anyone can even join team/prod

AFAIK We throw IP addresses away pretty quickly after receiving a telemetry packet. You can read about our data collection approval process here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Data_Collection An IP address would be

What kind of index size does Bleve work with well? Megabytes? Gigabytes? I’d love to understand at what scale people are using this engine.

People who cared about BuddyBuild probably don't care much about Docker or "generic" CI services. There are plenty of those. The thing about BuddyBuild was that it was "iOS Specific". You could point it at a repo an

I'm happy for the founders, this is probably a good and profitable exit for them. But as a customer I am really sad and disappointed. Apple has a very bad reputation when it comes to taking over products like this. TestFlight is the pr

There are two pieces here that I find really impressive: First, the skills and persistence to get all these moving parts going. This must have been weeks of tiring work and exploration. Second, the fact that the author wrote an incredibly d

Honest question: what is the big deal about syspatch? I see OpenBSD folks talk about it as if it is the greatest thing since sliced bread. How is this different from what many distributions have had for more than a decade in the form of apt
