Yeah, parts of this article feel like they’ve been written by a GenAI. Which… might have been the point, I suppose.
The strength of life to face oneself has been made manifest. The persona Carighan has appeared.

It’s because the same people who wrote the code usually write the docs, and people who are really good at writing code usually aren’t good at writing docs. It’s two different skill sets that usually don’t coincide.
This is why companies ought to employ technical writers if they have enough documentation. Of course, few ever do, but it’d by the Right Thing™️ to do.

Yet… silence.
Imagine never reading any news or discussions about environmental impact, but coming in here trying to defend Keurig by doing full whataboutism.
I think the problem is not in pod-based single-serving coffee machines. Those are common, and well-loved for a reason.
But there are easily available alternatives that do the exact same thing without requiring so much plastic, namely Senseo coffee pads (they’re grounds in coffee filter paper) or CoffeeB and its compressed coffee grounds balls (so it’s all just coffee ground, both the coffee and the pod). Probably a fair few more I don’t know about personally.
Possibly even Nestle with their Nescafe pods. They’re aluminium but some countries achieve effectively 100% recycling on that, then the only issue is the filter membrane they place inside and I don’t know whether that is easily separated during recycling or not.
Thank you for beating me to mention this.
K-cups are really amazinlgy bad. And it’s not like there aren’t much better solutions available. Philips has those fully bio-degradable pads, a local store now sells a type of coffee maker that uses just the coffee powder in balls where the outer shell is compressed grounds that is cracked open to get to the powder inside.
But no, Keurig and their fucking oceans of plastic waste.
And if you have this replacing the tabs at the top, then you might as well move the window buttons down one row and remove the top bar entirely
Yeah that part is weird. But it’s early in development and this sounds like something you add late, tbh.
Still, it’s kinda … well … the point. Use the readily available horizontal space with a vertical tab strip to free up the precious vertical space by removing that entire bar. 😅
I honestly hope they do not. The base implementation should be something utterly basic - I mean, quite literally the horizontal tab strip, but vertical. And then present an API for extending them, allowing consumers to bolt their own functionality on top as needed for their specific use case.
Don’t stuff the browser full of stuff only a tiny minority uses, tbh.
This is exactly what was expected.
After all, it’s called Vertical Tabs, not Nested Tree Tabs.
unless extensions can add that functionality
I guess that’s the idea. Most sidebar extensions need reworking with the new sidebar, but now addons wanting to add functionality to the tab strip no longer have to first also “invent” the whole vertical tab strip. They can just start from the existing one.
No they choose to ask they audience. You go where the people are if you want to ask them, you don’t make them come to you.
Bobby responded that the desktop PWA prototype that Mozilla built a few years ago got “some pretty negative feedback” in user testing and they didn’t have the bandwidth to take another crack at it.
I love how much people forget about this. PWAs were not liked when they came out. And that’s putting it very very mildly.
And morover, at the time, people in general did not like PWAs as a concept. Independent of the browser. It’s a bit funny when nowadays people always ask for PWA support, considering it was once yelled at until it was axed, and the whole concept ridiculed.
I swear every time Mozilla does anything people find some way to be negative about it.
I mean, Lemmy is pretty much mostly for curmudgeons if we’re being honest. Or at least that’s what non-cat posts feel like. Mozilla isn’t even all that special.
But yeah, it’s annoying. Just stop using the browser if you’re that annoyed by it, and more importantly, stop letting us know about it! We know, you’re upset. Go post on Twitter like the rest of the angry people do!
Neat. Small thing, but neat. Just wish we had lots of providers, but I understand they get money from AccuWeather for this, so it’s understandable there is no swapping this around (AccuWeather is pretty inaccurate for where I live, although not as bad as some other ones).
Which it is, and I hate it, but you’re exactly right.
And beyond that, this is also not Mozilla’s decision. A browser-making company is not the one to ask to fix digital media copyright and its enforcement. Talk to you elected personel if you want to fix that, and/or get into politics yourself and fix it.
if only we had acted sooner
Doing what, exactly? Create a fork? Done. Fill their feedback queue with endless screeching about how everything is dooooooom? Done, 10x over. Use another browser instead, say, Chrome? That’s what virtually everyone did, yes.=
Plus shouldn’t this on paper be positive news? Mozilla can, if they run Anonym well enough, be independent of other ad networks. Run their own. Which in turn means they can control the data and where it’s stored, an important issue with third-party ad networks.
Of course, it’s going to be difficult to find a modern application where each individually deployed component isn’t at least 7MB of compiled source (and 50-200MB of container), compared to this single 7MB war
that contained everything.
Yeah I was about to say, imagine this tiny Velociraptor purring in your lap sleeping off the murder of the chirpy-chirpy flap-thing in the garden.
I worried about this a lot back after uni, too.
I studied 8 years for a diploma that was supposed to be done in 5, and I had done nothing with the extra time. I just wasn’t in a good place to be done any faster.
However, it turns out to just not be a problem. Companies generally could not give a flying fuck about what I did at university, and as soon as I had been at one company, they only cared what I had done before in the industry.
Now of course, going for a masters is different, but I wouldn’t worry too much about it, it probably matters less than you think it will. If you want to explain gaps, I’d just cite it as “personal reasons”. If they ask - which is kinda not-okay - you can always say you had family matters that precluded you from focusing on your studies until now.
This is probably related to Youtube starting to serve ads mixed into the actual videostream, right?
This causes issues of them fucking up the timestamps?
Because it keeps being crossposted everywhere. Sadly.
