I don’t think this would be such an issue. There’s about 500x as much oxygen in the air as carbon dioxide. Increasing the amount of carbon dioxide by 140ppm is a 50% increase in carbon dioxide levels since pre industrial times. Reducing th

To clarify: My point is not that Firefox sucks, my point is that Firefox is great - better at handling the web than these new other web-browser engines will be for a long time, and yet it still hasn't broken the moat. It's no

Yeah, the aires are great. I only used the Tesla superchargers in the aires as they were cheaper than the others, and my car would automatically find them. I had no problems at all.

I also completed my first big road trip with the Tesla during the summer holidays. This was around France. With a long trip my preference was to slow charge overnight so as to start the day at >90%, and sometimes we'd also have a s

I’d love to see something like that applied to a project like Debian. The tools already exist. The cost of switching is too great, and you’d need everyone to learn your new system before you’d see the benefit. I wrote a bit about this here:

It's a shame that the list is in that order (both on the htmx website and in the book). Items 1 and 3 are simply not important, whereas 4 is by far the most important feature that HTMX offers.
