   I can't help but think that this is intentional. I'm pretty sure it's possible to create a more modular design without sacrificing anything. Especially given John Deere's record, it doesn't seem far fetched that the

   Is there a difference from a programming perspective between, say Kafka, and the event store linked in this post? I understand that Kafka can scale horizontally and can handle crazy throughput, but I mean from a programming point of view, t

   I don't think that's true. Both Latex and C++ were replaced. It's just that their best replacements were more specialized tools so that left a bit of space for both to survive. It's just like that example of cars mostly

   I guess it depends on the user, but Wayland is not the same shit for me. The level of jank and screen tearing in X is unacceptable. I think it’s amusing that that opinion is so common given how bad X is. Mac OS X was developed in the nineti

   Ah that makes sense. I'm interested to see how it performs there too

   Could you please explain how it affects those things? I'd be very interested in learning about that.

   I couldn't agree more. Firefox is the only browser I use on the desktop, and I do think it's the best. But the lack of native context menus is annoying. Also, other native features are missing. Like the rubber banding and pinch to

    I keep seeing comments like this one, but just as you can parse textual data into something more structured, like the examples in the post, you can also print the structured data as text. So the tools that use and generate structured data a

    I guess you'd have to install the certificate on your phone too. I guess that means that visitors to Kazakhstan won't have internet access during their stay, unless they install the malicious certificate on their phones as well. I

    This seems self contradictory. If people keep falling into the same traps even with training, how is "this is a human limitation" not a reasonable conclusion?

    Thanks for sharing. Out of curiosity, why was the answer no? Was the issue the downtime or something more subtle?

    But why not just share the raw text then? In a situation where you would need to distribute web pages without a host, presumably to share vital information, couldn't you just share the raw text via the same medium you use to send the l

    Like the article said, in practice the WebAssembly can actually be faster, because it can use all the optimizations for the target machine.

    The coolest thing about this is the IE mode in Edge. This can result in a complete phase-out of IE, even in corporate environments.

    I agree, those are awful. Edge swiping from the left is a lot harder to do by accident though.

    I'm actually fine with a back gesture in this case. I think it's pretty commonly known that you can swipe back. And it's way more accessible than the top left back button.

    Hey I'm glad you gave it a try! I think it was turned on for Windows 10 nightly users with Nvidia cards. Not sure if they added more users since then. What do you think if you don't mind me asking?

    That kind of exists, but it's still giving Google power because it relies on their software. It basically makes it really difficult for anyone to shape how the web works besides Google, since no one has any browser market share. For ex

    I'm on macOS and Firefox is at least as fast as Chrome. Granted, I'm on nightly with WebRender turned on, but that will be in regular Firefox soon enough.

    The opposite is happening. They have such a small market share that developers didn't have enough incentive to actually support/test on their browser so all their work was just trying to get edge to be chrome-compatible. Turns out
