Duolingo has a tenth of a Latin course.

Source: I did the whole thing before I learned Latin from a different course. Duolingo's is unfinished.

They are extremely low (at least by the standard of Software Engineers based in the US)

That's not how it works at my company. Trading is only blocked around 3 weeks each quarter.

It kinda of confuses me when use the term "nation state" instead of just "state". For example Canada is not a nation-state but surely they are powerful and important enough that they could also pursue this kind of case.

The argument is that if tricks like this were to become widespread, they may start requiring certified medical documentation (or other hurdles) for said faster treatment, making life even more annoying for people with genuine issues.

> Eclipse gets a lot of automatic hate - I believe mostly since a lot of people first use it in university and struggled with their first real IDE.

More like Eclipse struggled on the kind of hardware that people could afford as a student.

My main memories of Eclipse (15 years ago at this point) are waiting forever for it to start up, though it was pretty adequate after that.

If you add a few cents of spices a day, I would argue it's not even too boring af and can even arguably be fairly tasty!

> decent enough for most people and uses.

Except for the very big use case of mobile browsing, where only Firefox allows extensions.

As someone that uses Firefox as my main browser on desktop and mobile, I am curious here - what exactly are the complaints with Firefox?

I'm using 3+ year old hardware that was mid-range even when it was new and it seems to do everything I would want with reasonable performance.

It would be nice to be able to select / deselect folders in the file selector.

note: I'm not a junior dev and the repo I'm trying to analyze is more of a side project than a portfolio piece. This may or may not be a feature relevant to your actual target audience.

Very good point that I never considered! Thanks.

An interesting bit to me is that it compiles to (apparently) readable C, I'm not sure how one would use that to their advantage

I am not too familiar with C - is the idea that it's easier to incrementally have some parts of your codebase in this language, with other parts being in regular C?

"AI" is in the title. It's to power their data centers.

> I'm not sure who are the target audience, because I am definitely not and I don't know anyone who is.

Are you all expected to provide your own personal hardware?

Maybe this depends on location, but everyone I can think of has a corporate-issued laptop on which their corporate software runs.

I am asking out of curiosity and nothing else: what use cases do you have that motivate you to get a new phone every year? Do iPhones get notably better with every release? I'm guessing camera or storage would be big ones?

I'm having trouble following what exactly this means.

So Jeff wanted the team to modify an existing publication to fit the PR spin on AI, the ethics team refused, and Jeff dissolved the team?

> You can access iCloud from an iOS app, it has its own public framework called CloudKit, so you could create your own version of it.

How is this relevant?

The point of having a Google Photos app is to access / back up your photos via Google Photos, not to make an alternative frontend for iCloud.

I'm not a Rust evangelist, but I'm glad that Rust evangelists exist.

I decided to try it for a medium-sized (~10k LoC) performance sensitive component recently and it has been an absolute joy to use.

Very exciting to see the progress here!

Is there a way to understand how many of the Web Platform Tests are for features that are "stable" (say for X years) across all major browsers? I see Chrome has a much higher number than the others, which seems to indicate that many of the tests may be for features that are not compatible across browsers.

It's not making an excuse on the part of Google, it's pointing out the naivety of expecting otherwise from Google.

Firefox still allows uBlock origin, and even on mobile.
