As far as Nightly goes, I'd always imagine a debug/testing build would use more RAM by a fair margin.

elsewise, I'd say, try creating a new FF profile, unfortunately afaik older profiles can still jank up the browser a bit

Please note this comment isn't specifically to you, but, I guess more to any mozzarellian that comes across this comment

for other reasons I wanna comment on the "seems pretty reasonable" bit

"In this day and age" what with fear and stuff being a main chunk of news , perhaps using a webext (which can really only modify a page to do any tricky cool stuff) is a bad thing?

(especially when it plays off of the pre-existing FUD by referencing hacking n' stuff!, but not my point)

same for any unexpected icons appearing in the toolbars! People are being told to be weary when using their browsers: look out for signs the pages might be fake or messed with, look out for unexplained installation of programs and addons, being hammered in from every secure site!

Its worrying that, I know it would fuck with my parents pretty bad WHEN it would be enabled, because there isn't much point in developing something for it to not be enabled! Especially when money is probably on the table, when higher ups probably rammed this through normal steps designed to prevent this sort of stuff (again)

I need something to give my parents, something that is ethical, something that cares about them, and something that works: chrome still works better for them, and mozilla seems really really keen on blurring the lines for the other ones (I know I know, it requires users to opt into shield studies etc, but man, I had a talk with my ma, "do you wanna contribute back to mozilla in this way?", please don't punish us for asking other less-techy people that.)

If you guys need easter eggs, probably keep them off to the side, in the settings or about sections

can't you install umatrix/ublockO in mobile FF?

That's all fine and dandy for the desktop case.

But its a dhcp server, network admins would be expected to touch config files, and the interface for a DHCP server really can't be much worse than the GUI version that microsoft supplies!

but digressions, to say "this is why I won't use a linux desktop" in response to a server-specific use-case, is at best antagonistic!

"You should be able to run a command that doesn’t use the network, knowing that it won’t open a network port." Is the reader supposed to stop reading there? Because they must be using a different dotnet than everyone else, considering microsoft's dotnet does package management and download iirc?

"I don’t want your tools spying on you either." how virtuous. Some people don't care though, some people actually prefer it

Let me put this bluntly: If [weakening of encryption] is what the government winds up suggesting, then by all means hand me a bullhorn [...]

well how else would you interpret the statement that Australian law supersedes math?

- - -

That aside, "We do not share customer data with 3rd parties, as it is not possible due to end-to-end encryption, except when we send things in plaintext, because of our moral obligation to the Australian government" is going to be a greaaaat addition to privacy policies for Australian companies. Going to go real well for international business.

that is referring to the daemons if I'm not mistaken

If you don't mind me asking, how are you getting the data? just site scraping each source?

and then suddenly, your signature goes from `f()` to `f(args,*kwargs)`, you lose all of make_money's documentation too

Can we vote on the governance of facebook and google like we do with the government? (where every person's vote is equal)

if so, where can I register to freely vote

edit: since it doesn't seem clear, my comment is sarcastic

with several browsers happy to automatically download whatever is provided to them, making a user download a libblahblah.so is relatively easy, and unless the user was aware of the ramifications of just even having such a file in a folder, might ls, cat, grep, etc in that folder like they do any other day

However, most of the latest versions of the mainstream browsers now intentionally avoid writing out such files to the downloads folder unless the end user specifically OKs it (due to situations like this!)

Well its "We have made new TPUs for Google Cloud and we probs won't sell them!"

Google decides if you are part of the everyone included in their AI for everyone

you can postpone general updates while still having critical/security updates go through at the normal pace

And, shouldn't a workplace be setup for re-imaging if updates go wrong? I know its easy to just store files in C:\user\name\documents, but then it makes it just as easy to be forced to pay $300 for each computer in the network

The thing is, Niantic learnt one bad thing from Google: The habit of near-zero community interaction and support.

The player base for Pokemon Go felt very frustrated at multiple times (especially anyone who had a rooted phone, completely disallowed to play, but that didn't stop cheaters!)

They only very recently added PR members to the probably largest PokemonGo forum around, https://redd.it/68nxzx

I don't think anyone really is angered by a modular system, its more the needing-to-pay-attention-to-every-little-bit (especially when those bits are mixed up in really poor naming, corporate speak, etc) is the more practical issue

I ain't too sure, but

https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/5mflek/alacrit... The Terminology (another light-weight term, with memory goals, that has scrollback) developer's comments are here

As far as Alacritty is concerned, modularity can easily come with a cost.

once you add in e.g. tmux for multiplexing and scrollback, then you are bottlenecked at tmux's speeds, as opposed to the terminal emulator's speeds (not like it really matters, but its an interesting effect)

Yes, those are threads when handled by the OS / greenthreads when handled by the program.

a program with threads can support multiple requests simultaneously. a program with green threads can support multiple requests simultaneously.

You arn't giving any reasons why green threads in python perform better than threads in the OS.

https://magic.io/blog/uvloop-blazing-fast-python-networking/... from the makers of uvloop (for a toy example)

it seems the main bottleneck when using aiohttp is aiohttp itself, which practically makes the use of uvloop irrelevant

Well you can do all of that sync, can't you?

    def on_connection:
        send(headers)
        send(start of page)
        for row in db:
            send(row)
        send(footer)

The performance comparison is between python managed green threads, and OS managed actual threads. You don't get any new features

(At Project ORB, we are working to build a platform for blockchain games which incorporate Counterparty tokens. In addition to rarepepe, [..]"

So I guess they are trying to get more people to focus on this silly thing in hopes that they'll get more users for their app? Adverts are weird

out now?

each time I look at google's 3d representations for things, I really wonder why they don't do manual touchups for certain places

I mean, if you are including the Eiffel Tower in the intro pages, could both make it look cleaner, and make it use less net resources

you only have to touch your stylesheets instead of manipulating both the stylesheets and HTML.

Well isn't the point here that you'd only have to modify the HTML, leaving the CSS alone for the most part?

having "[...] open source [...]" in your tag line, for a closed source project, is a bit disingenuous.

"Project A has beneficial aspect X, we forked project A's work and removed X, but we just thought we should mention that it used to have aspect X, which is cool!"

ick.

They'd close support for it in a couple years, but they'd keep the voice recordings around forever!

it seems they are watching, they've uploaded the newer version

Isn't the only information legally available aggregate and non-identifiable?

They have?

https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop seems fairly up to date?

I don't think I met anyone who didn't use curse begrudgingly.

If they are seriously aiming to compete only with Blizzard App, then I'd imagine them planning on failing then.

Besides, Steam and Origin also have VOIP and streaming capabilities, And Steam also has mod management systems too, so Curse is closer to steam than to battle.net

Besides, the UI is fairly close to feature parity with discord (much like how curse was) which is adding screen sharing soon http://i.imgur.com/SPPLZhi.png

So it does seem more closer to trying to compete against Steam+Discord than a battle.net
