There definitely are 10x engineers and they're invaluable, but they're not (necessarily) those who write 10x more good code, but those who understand the requirements and write the right code. And directs others to write the right code.

Most time is wasted when you throw away and rewrite what you did.

I like Rider very much, but personally moved to VSCode because of many little annoying bugs that aren't being fixed. E.g. typescript refactoring problems, .NET native code debugging from C#, TFS support etc. And maybe it's changing but I felt that the progress for new features and IDE maintenance stalled (for obvious reasons).

Just use Kagi search (or also probably there are some other alternatives) and at the end it will end up as a good thing for society.

I don't get why FF is mainly advertised as a 'privacy first' browser. I think most people first want ease of use and features, not privacy. And for them, Firefox may look like a niche program only for those who are paranoid or have something to hide. But in my opinion even if we don't count privacy, Firefox will still be a serious contender in all other areas and winner in many. At least for me it's not privacy that wins.

Killer feature for me - add blocking in on mobile browser.

Killer feature for me, why I migrated to FF recently - add blocking in mobile. When I migrated to FF on mobile there was no choice but to migrate to FF on desktop. And I don't regret anything after doing that.

For most of course it's not important, but Lichess has "blind mode" - this enables blind people to play chess online. Implementing this feature of course wouldn't pay off for Chess.com.
