How much better is Mythos than Opus 4.6 or 4.7, or Sonnet for that matter?

Opus 4.6 resulted in 22 fixes in Firefox 148, compared to 271 fixes with Mythos in Firefox 150.

You know what? Just fucking move on top of a fucking mountain and Into the wild yourself.

Workin’ on it.

Respectfully, yes.

If it’s that local of an issue, why not just go around with a clipboard and piece of paper and talk to your neighbours about it? Modern technology isn’t always the solution, sometimes the tried and true methods are still valid for a reason.

I concur. Currently using 11ty for my sites with Directus on top for managing content with a gui.

This has to be one of the worst designed data visualizations I’ve seen in a long time. God knows social media isn’t wanting for shitty dataviz, but this one is particularly awful. It’s an assault on my senses trying to read it.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised from a company called “visual capitalist”.

Assuming a full-time employer engineer works 20 days a month, that’s 50,000 lines of code a day.

Assuming an 8 hour work day, that’s 6,250 lines of code per hour, or 104 lines of code per minute.

This is humanly impossible without using AI and automation at every stage of the process. Good luck with that.

I’m guessing where we’re headed is software “engineers” becoming AI prompt “engineers” for design, development, review, testing, and shipping.

Buckle up, shit’s gonna get wild.

I don’t have a recommendation other than don’t recommend something to your friend for which you’re not willing to provide tech support.

Fact. I game on Debian (mostly through Steam flatpak) and it works great. I tried the so-called “gaming” distros and eeked out 0-5% fps gains while also experiencing paper cuts or bugs in other areas of my daily driving that weren’t present on Debian. I’m not into e-sports so so long as I’m not hitting a 30 fps floor I’m fine. The time I save not having to navigate paper cuts I get to put toward fun things, like actually playing games.

Reject Convenience did a pretty good breakdown of DeleteMe, Incogni and the data broker industry on their YouTube channel a while back. It’s a good overview but, fair warning, it might send you down a bit of a rabbit hole after watching.

I think this is just panic from the higher ups at Mozilla who have no idea what in the fuck the company should be doing or is about, even.

As someone who started their career as a volunteer at Mozilla and was fortunate enough to become an employee (although am no longer), I can say with a fair amount of confidence that this has been their standard operating mode for over a decade. Nothing I’ve seen from them since I was let go has shown me they’re operating any differently.

I still support Firefox because I oppose a browser monoculture owned by Google, and the advocacy work the Foundation is vitally important. The Corporation lost the plot ages ago though, and does more harm to Mozilla’s mission than any other player out there. No amount of re-orgs or pivots can fix this.

I hope, someday, for Firefox to be freed from the Corporation as a sustainable community run project (like Debian), with infrastructure sponsored by the Foundation and others who want to see it continue. Unfortunately the Corporation will never let Firefox go because its existential for them, and will be stuck in this panic cycle for as long as Google keeps them on life support.

Anyway, still using Firefox and pruning all the weeds from it each release, but it’s become exhausting.

Nice try, Officer, but I’m not falling for it.

Reading the “In Crime and Politics” section of the Calibri Wikipedia page, I can’t help but think the motivation here is so the State Department can release falsified documents predating 2006 without being found out.

This except I convinced my parents they didn’t actually need a computer in their lives anymore. It is win-win.

Yup! Sitting here on 70 down / 18 up, fastest money can by around here. If I’m going to play a game I haven’t downloaded yet I usually have to plan a day in advance.

Yes

Pebble: 30 days of battery life

Also Pebble: 30 days manufacturer warranty

So the warranty expires when the battery does. Lol.

Edit: still loving my Time Round even though it hasn’t been updated in nearly a decade.

Yeah, I can totally empathise. I used to work in QA for a couple different software companies, including around CVEs and security bug bounty programs. One company scaled back their QA department to near nothing, the other eliminated QA altogether, instead relying on devs to QA their own stuff or automation. It’s not going well for either of them.

Not going to downvote this because the source article is useful, but OP’s take is ludicrous. Have we really reached the point where ALL media is propaganda?

It might be time to unplug society and plug it back in again.

It reminds me of when climate hoaxers claim the hole in the ozone layer shrinking proves those campaigning to fix it were just fearmongering.
