Hey! Sorry, I didn't get the chance to test it yet (like I promised when you launched), but can you say more about the rewrite? The title made me think you're porting it from Rust to another language :-).


No problem! I'm rewriting the codebase of Ferron (the rewrite is still in Rust), to follow some suggestions people made for the web server (faster async runtime, different configuration format). The original codebase would have been bit hard to work on to follow these suggestions...


> I've written my own Git clients and have built a web server around Git repositories. I don't want to lose the hack-ability of Git.

And they will keep working because the repository format isn't affected by the language git is written in.


Believing that this will be the case forever is naive. At some point there will be extensions. Then those extensions will become all but mandatory for interacting with other git users.


It doesn't say that:

> In addition to redesigning and testing the Noctua fan grill, we also evaluated various other scenarios. These included replacing the NF-A12x25 with its G2 variant and incorporating an additional 8cm fan for exhaust purposes.


If you're wondering why the differences in the image pairs under the sliders are so subtle, try loading the page in a Chromium-based browser.


Seems like there's a race condition between the images loading and the script setting up the sliders; if the script runs before the 'before' image for a given slider has finished loading, that 'before' image won't be visible at all. Happens under Chromium-based browsers too.


Thanks, I was wondering if this was some rich high-quality screen thing I was too poor to understand ;)


Worked for me in Firefox Android (the race condition theory seems likely).


Zooming in and out worked on my iOS device to trigger it to load properly.


Me too on Firefox in Windows.


Who protects you when the packagers decide to trust a shady CA (adding it to the root store) because it's used by the distro's infra?


Is this supposed to be some kind of gotcha argument? Against what?



To be clear, the EU is also pushing for encryption and hardware backdoors.


To be clear US does not need to push for hardware backdoors and more because they already got them.


I do think auto white balance is a little better these days. My old DSLR often had a strong magenta tint magenta in scenes with a lot of green (like forests). My new mirrorless camera from the same manufacturer no longer does that.


> sites using Cloudflare now have an opt-in option to quickly block all AI bots, but it won't be turned on by default for sites using Cloudflare

Do you have a source for that? https://blog.cloudflare.com/content-independence-day-no-ai-c... does say "changing the default".


"This feature is available to all customers, meaning anyone can enable this today from the Cloudflare dashboard."

Between those measures, if they are effective and the new blocking, maybe the bigger companies will be induced to behave a little better.


> I looked at their plugins, they're compiled into WASM and run in some VM. Maybe that's part of it?

No. The ones I've looked just set up stuff, like launching a language server. They shouldn't be involved in typing.

I think it's related to the GPU usage. It's easy to introduce delays when you do GPU compositing, and the OS will already be doing its own.

As for emacs, IIRC they did some ugly things to update the UI directly instead of going through the normal event loop, which was causing compatibility issues later on.
