I'll definitely be watching out for more built-in streaming support. Being able to throw the standard types directly over the wire and trust that the library will handle optimally utilizing the connection would make…
My biggest complaint with library management tools, and I think this applies to Librari as well, is the lack of multi-user support. I have a lot of books in my "home library", spread out over a few rooms. But I'm not…
Observable engineer here. I haven't looked into Malloy much, but Framework's data loaders are very flexible. If you can write a script or binary that uses Malloy and writes to stdout, it can be a data loader. For…
I'd say that Firefox versions are mostly a unit of time now, since they aren't generally semantically meaningful in the way semver is. While working on Firefox, we often make plans that are delineated not in weeks,…
Luckily, Firefox supporting Wayland doesn't hurt you at all. I'm also very excited about Firefox supporting Wayland. It isn't dropping support for X11.
Yes, this is using the same system as the Mr Robot marketing gimmick last December. That isn't very worrying to me though, since that platform is basically a generic "do something in the browser" capability, where "do",…
It may not be in the release notes, but this release has some performance improvements specifically on OSX.
I very recently got a pair of QC35s. The noise cancelling was neat, but didn't seem that useful in every day situations. Then I took a flight with them, and they still didn't seem that interesting. Until I took them off…
> The fact that you need a $100 dock to connect to external monitors is ridiculous I think you're overselling this a bit. I've got a USB-C dongle that with USB-A, HDMI, Network, and VGA, and a USB-C to DisplayPort cable…
Since on most platforms the tabs go all the way to top of the window now, there isn't room to grab the window to move it around. Those spaces act as extra drag targets.
There is a pref that controls the minimum width now (browser.tabs.tabMinWidth). The default changed from 100px to 76px in Firefox 57. You should be able to tweak this to change the minimum width.
The details of these deals aren't generally public, so I don't expect to see any official answers about this.
As for why e10s is not enabled: It is being slowly rolled out to many users, and each new version of Firefox enables it for more users. It is a huge change to the browser, so Mozilla is being very cautious with the…
Hey, thanks for the headsup. We had an old component that we used as a fallback for certain kinds of videos that was always active. It was a legacy component that just got forgotten. I removed the Flash fallback about…
It gets a lot easier on a touch screen.
If you just have a laptop, anything is a desk if you're brave enough.
Why does this make you less likely to use Firefox? The default search engine is just that: the default. You can change it to something else, and always have been able to. If you care enough to know what search engine…
Mozilla's deal with Google ran it's course. Instead of inking a new deal with Google, Mozilla decided to go with another option.
Pre-release versions (Beta, Aurrora, Nightly) on Android have been running experiments with Yahoo for a while.
For at least Loopy, the generator works by generating a full puzzle with all hints, and then removing hints one at a time until the solver can't solve the puzzle. So the complexity of the puzzles that can be generated…
I was curious about this, so I checked: zsh will preserve completions if you `alias g=git`.
