the point is that the service that honey provides doesn't seem to warrant selling your entire browsing activity. At least facebook and google provide a means of communication that is difficult, sometimes impossible, to provide elsewhere on the internet

I read the entire thing in one sitting. I think I assumed it was just a normal blog-post length and the scroll bar at the side was so small because the bottom had a bunch of photos or more articles or something. The story was engaging, so I just continued reading.

noise cancelling works best for constant sounds (like the thrum of an engine or a murmur of the crowd) so the anc processor can "compensate" for that sound. If a toddler was crying irregularly, with "wahs" at longer bursts, it's possible that the ANC didn't have time for it's time window to compensate for the sound. Aka the sound started and stopped before a particular time window.

not sure if it is by design, but a larger window would potentially decrease computational load since it doesn't need to recalibrate and reprocess at a higher rate.

Microsoft knows about this. Its why they included the option in the command line. The fact that Massgavel's activation scripts still work on windows is telling of how much they'll care.

A bit meta, but how is this a post worthy of hackernews? Is LionTeeth (OP in the macrumors forum thread) some Apple insider/genius? This entire post smacks of reddit energy. They don't explain why the UI sucks but complain about it. If someone formatted this opinion into a blog post highlighting why the UI is worse while providing counterexamples and stuff, it would have a lot more value.

For me it makes sense if you're using a bunch of shared devices but want to keep your tabs/projects/files all open in a safe place. It looks like google drive sync is in the works, and I think this would make it much more useful. Outside of a managed enterprise environment, though, I don't really see the advantage.

It looks like the idea is to make it so that every type of app can run everywhere within the browser. Once again, cool, but useless unless these apps optimize for smaller vs larger devices and different storage versions, at which point I don't see the difference from a pwa, unless I'm interpreting this incorrectly? Otherwise every other example on the webpage seems to be really basic like text files, which, as others have pointed out, have many existing apps with robust sync capabilities.

traditionally no, but adblocking on firefox has been traditionally better and chrome(and therefore chromium) is about to break many adblocks

I mean, it's a firefox-based browser. Is there any reason why it wouldn't support firefox extensions?

almost certainly. Return to office mandates are used typically to cull workforce without having to explain "layoffs" to stock holders and potentially reduce stock price. Turnover for "talent" is hilarious.

it's annoying that the clsid fork isn't associated with the website- it adds a lot of confusion to what is probably the video player that compromises between user friendliness and customizability. It's usually the video player that I recommend to people because it seems beter than vlc and has a GUI for settings as opposed to mpv.

I'd be surprised if digikey didn't have checks in place to mitigate your concern, for the reasons in the above comment. Businesses would leave if they got a hint of chicanery.

I don't see how ladybird's funding model is fundamentally different, other than Google isn't funding it. The only difference is that ladybird is in it's infancy and still has time to grow into the corpo-money-dependent organization you describe.

Besides, has ladybird even said that they would reject google money if offered it? Or amazon? or any other large corporation that could seriously stifle the free web?

excuse my ingnorance, but firefox is also an open source browser afaik. The only advantage that ladybird us is that it turns the duopoly of browser engines into a tri-opoly- so what is the point? Why wouldn't this money be better spent enhancing another browser engine like whatever midori runs on? Why does Ladybird need to exist, and why are so many companies becoming sponsors? Not trying to ruffle feathers, genuinely curious

is there an answers sheet somewhere as well?

Man, first I hear about Raivo, now this. Been a bad week for me to say the least...

I think It has violated app store procedure? The app was under and open source license before, and now it is not, and users were not notified. I think complaining to apple would be a good move?

How do you find work otherwise? Just personal connections and word of mouth?

The outrage is that supposed culture is being destroyed and turned into a soulless apple device. Apple implies that you can replace all the things with the ipad, which isn't true- you can't perfectly emulate a trumpet, for example. All in all a dystopian take

would replace twinkle tray (open source) for me if it wasnt for the fact that keyboard shortcuts are paywalled behind a subscription. just make it a one time purchase or something. as it is though i dont see any advantages compared to twinkle tray
