Very interesting. I'm very disappointed at the state of my faculty's library (FCUL). Even landmark works by the most influential of computer scientists are missing, being in their place endless copies of mindless "for dummies

Looking at the documentation this looks to be at a very early stage, but after reading it I think it's mostly on the right track to become a very interesting platform... It's decentralised by design, has support for most things p

Why don't you read the Wikipedia notability guidelines, or look at the history of the 13 year old page you just linked and find out?

How come nobody has reverse engineered the iMessage protocol properly? Is Apple using any hardware stuff to prevent this? I think an unofficial iMessage client appeared a few years ago, but it was very closed source and I don't think i

There are unofficial clients for the WhatsApp Web API. You could easily build something around that, though it's likely to break often.

This usage of the word "cloning" is widespread in the horticultural community, and it's indeed used by your average garden as well.

There's a few places you can get ECMWF from, but usually your state meteorology institute will use it, even if it's not clearly advertised. (In Portugal they use ECMWF together with AROME)

It does seem to use more memory, but at least on my Mac it uses a lot less CPU. For firefox it just takes one bad tab (gmaps, gmail, facebook, youtube/embedded youtube) to grind the whole system to a halt, all these things work fine on

Very well! Even shows a little coloured strip on each tab, and respects regular tab hierarchy.

I've been using TST for many years and it's really the killer feature that keeps bringing me back to firefox. For those running on older machines who still like having a big tab hierarchy with stuff to check later, there's th

Agreed. As much as I liked the old site I think the rust team made the right call on this one. Perhaps the old page could be moved somewhere close to the language docs instead of being removed, but I'm confident whoever is in charge ha
