O icónico avião do filme TopGun de 1986, o F-14 Tomcat é ainda utilizado por um país no Mundo. Por ironia do destino é um dos principais inimigos do EUA: o Irão.😄
o meu lado de engenheiro admira os gajos que conseguem manter esses aviões em serviço. Estamos a falar de tecnologia dos anos 70, alguma mais antiga, herdada do f-111.
lembro-me de um documentário sobre a guerra irao-iraque em que usaram os f14 e até f-4 Fantom de forma muito eficaz. Aliás, a maioria dos abates por f14 são deles, dos EUA so me lembro daqueles incidentes com os libios.
Tak takhle vypadá to "nesmyslně předimenzované" a "poloprázdné" parkoviště u Panské skály v říjnu, za zamračeného počasí, větru a osmi stupních. Jak to tu vypadá uprostřed letní sezóny, to si asi dokážete představit. Ale petičníci, kteří tu nikdy nebyli, vědí přesně, co město potřebuje 🤭
That imprecise terminology leads to more miscommunication between sales folks, designers, and devs than is necessary. Then weird stuff gets built from scratch instead of leaning on existing patterns.
You should dismiss articles that conflate the two.
I don’t think most people realize how Firefox and Safari depend on Google for more than “just” revenue from default search engine deals and prototyping new web platform features.
Off the top of my head, Safari and Firefox use the following Chromium libraries: libwebrtc, libbrotli, libvpx, libwebp, some color management libraries, libjxl (Chromium may eventually contribute a Rust JPEG-XL implementation to Firefox; it’s a hard image format to implement!), much of Safari’s cryptography (from BoringSSL), Firefox’s 2D renderer (Skia)…the list goes on. Much of Firefox’s security overhaul in recent years (process isolation, site isolation, user namespace sandboxes, effort on building with ControlFlowIntegrity) is directly inspired by Chromium’s architecture.
Interdependence for independent components can be mutually beneficial. For something to be part of Chromium, it needs to build and test with a battery of sanitizers and receive continuous fuzzing. Mozilla and Safari do something similar. All benefit from libraries getting patched to meet each others’ security requirements. Without Google, Mozilla and Apple must assume responsibility to maintain these libraries to a browser-grade standard.
I see many advocates for Chromium alternatives say the Web would be better without Chromium. That may be true, but Chromium alternatives may also be worse.
For completeness: Firefox and Safari’s influence on Chromium in recent years includes the addition of memory-safe languages, partitioned site storage, declarative content blocking (from Safari), and a vague multi-year repeatedly-delayed intent to phase out third-party cookies. Chromium would be no better off without other browser projects.
But you also need to consider how much of that is because chrome shipped those features and therefore everyone else had to as well - Mozilla does not have the money to compete there even before its slow motion implosion
For everyone else it’s just time - plenty of these things are *huge* amounts of work, and insanely complex, and the “standard” is pretty much “whatever Google implemented”
“But you also need to consider how much of that is because chrome shipped those features and therefore everyone else had to as well”
@ohunt Color space processing, cross platform GPU-accelerated 2d graphics, and brotli compression are things that aren’t necessary to use websites but all browsers chose to ship, and they chose Chromium’s implementations. Firefox already had other 2d backends but switched to Skia. HDR in particular is an OS feature that all programs capable of playing video and showing images are generally expected to support, and that means handling complex color metadata.
“the ‘standard’ is pretty much ‘whatever Google implemented’
This is not the case for most examples I cited; the first sentence of the post set the scope to exclude Web standards. I was describing libraries chosen by browsers.
Multiple implementations of WebP, Brotli, and others exist; most of them aren’t browser-grade implementations. Tons of implementations of TLS 1.3 exist, but Apple (and AWS, and Cloudflare, and several others) switched to Google’s BoringSSL over popular alternatives like OpenSSL, LibreSSL, Mozilla’s NSS, and GnuTLS.
JPEG-XL has a very popular independent Rust implementation which Mozilla is not considering, in favor of one supplied by Chromium which doesn’t even support JXL right now.
None of the Chromium-inspired security improvements in Firefox are necessary to render web pages or implement standards.
Part of the point of my post was to show how reality isn’t as simple as the popular “everybody has to do what Google says because it has market share” narrative, or the “if Mozilla had an alternative to Google’s revenue it would be truly independent” narrative. Browser vendors do have choice when picking libraries that implement features or deciding on security architecture improvements. They tend to pick what Chromium has done even when given feature-complete choices because they find the Chromium options to be best.
I agree with you when it comes to Web standards, though. But this post wasn’t about standards.
@Sirs0ri the point was that the chrome team is responsible not just for funding, but actually developing, a significant chunk of its own competition. All WebRTC, WebP, VP8/VP9 encoding, and JPEG-XL code in all major browsers is from Chromium. I don’t know how this is an example of competition; it’s an example of how the different browser engines aren’t entirely competitors, but instead rely on Chromium’s continued existence.

Hledám pro matku práci. Má základní vzdělání a s počítačem neumí. Celý život dělala uklízečku. Na současnou práci už nestačí, protože jí z tahání těžkých věci bolí páteř. Ideální lokalita Hlučín, Moravská Ostrava. Na plný úvazek.
Koukám na jeden inzerát... Uklízečka... Angličtina a filipinstina výhodou. Lidem už jebe.
@pavel @archos To je bohužel zákonný požadavek. Kamarád říkal, že aby mohl zaměstnat uklízečku z UA, napsal do požadavků schopnost překládat z Maďarštiny do Švédštiny 😁
Am I misunderstanding something or does this article indicate that adding menu/menuitem roles somehow ensure keyboard operability of dropdown menus? (They don’t.) The use of <ul>/<li> elements is also superfluous as the added roles mean it could be just <div>s. Not a bad practice, but the article seems to indicate using a list is somehow helpful to AT users. (It isn’t.) I’d also recommend the aria-haspopup=menu (although equivalent to true, it’s more specific).
In fact, using the menu roles in the wrong way can have serious repercussions on the screen reader experience, since for historic reasons, menu systems need special handling, especially on Windows, but the Mac has some similar mechanisms where wrongly used menu roles can put VoiceOver in an undesired state where strange things occur. I wrote an article about that in 2018 or so, outlining some of the problems. And of course, the fact that ARIA roles don't change browser behaviour or add keyboard functionality is as true today as it was 20 years ago when ARIA was first conceived.

@archos Mám houby rád už od mala, nakoupil jsem nějakou literaturu a prošmejdil dost lesů, tak se dá říct, že ano. Otrava z hub ještě nebyla, tak asi zatím dobrý 😁
@archos Tak ono to samozřejmě není podle knížek, atlas je vodítko a pak musíš chodit do lesa a učit se, nejlépe vždy s někým, kdo fakt ví že to je právě tahle houba. Praxe v lese se nedá nahradit knížkou 😁
Der 30jährige staatenlose Robert A., der seit kurz nach der Geburt in Chemnitz lebt wird in ein Land abgeschoben, in dem er nie lebte, dessen Sprache er nicht spricht, dessen Kultur er nicht kennt. Unsere Normalität eines autoritären Kapitalismus: Menschen abschieben, die ihr Leben lang gut integriert waren und nichts anderes als diese Kultur und Sprache kennen, ohne Notlage Grenzen schließen, der permanente Überbietungswettbewerb in Forderung und Härte gegen Fremde als politischer Grundkonsens.
When I think about reading, the activity, I think of it as something distinct from listening to an audiobook. I enjoy the physical and mental act of reading. It is recreational for me in a way that listening to an audiobook isn’t.
But I do love and listen to audiobooks, and listening to audiobooks “counts” as reading, whatever that means. If you ask me what books I’ve read, I’m going to list those I’ve read and those I’ve listened to (and in some cases I’m probably not going to remember which is which). urusai.social/@nazokiyoubinbou…
72 Stunden – insbesondere über ein Wochenende – sind kaum ausreichend sind, um auf ein hochkomplexes Gesetzesvorhaben in angemessener Weise zu reagieren.
Die betroffenen Verbände und Organisationen, darunter auch der Verein Tacheles e.V., hatten gerade einmal drei Tage Zeit, um eine Stellungnahme zu einem Gesetz zu verfassen, das weitreichende Veränderungen im Bereich der Bürgergeldgesetze und Arbeitsförderung vorsieht.
@Bundesregierung Ich möchte das bei der FDP sämtliche Leistungen zusammen gekürzt werden,das die Abgeordneten der FDP nur noch ein Taschengeld bekommen und mit Wasser und Brot abgespeist werden.Und das alles nur um ihnen den Anreiz zu nehmen soviel Scheisse auf meine Kosten (Steuerzahler) zu fordern.Ich will diese Menschenverachtende,Klassistische,Rassistische Scheisse einfach nicht mehr hören müssen.Beendet endlich diese fucking Ampel Geschichte. #Migrationspolitik br.de/nachrichten/deutschland-…
This deserves a highlight: "Two years ago, one of us (A.C.) made a prediction in Fortune Magazine that a few years of ‘learning to live with’ COVID (i.e., pretending it doesn’t exist) would lead to a billion cases of Long COVID. A recent estimate pegs the total incidence so far at 400 million cases of Long COVID. Long COVID is well on its way to becoming the world’s most common disease."

what's wrong with hubzilla? it has the most fine grained post propagation strategy, aka circles and stuff like that. Also, there's friendica and such, which is kinda similar, but not really. Since _streams is a fork of hubzilla, should we be worried about that too?
@esoteric_programmer reputation for admins who leave instances running on autopilot with open reg which then get overrun by botspam posting marketing at best.
@hazelnoot if you have had to deal with a lot of instances posting, uh, media legally risky in jurisdictions including but not limited to where most hosting providers are located (US, EU): you’ve probably encountered one. Akkoma or Pleroma soft-fork.
@Ezzy @hazelnoot well it’s hosted on hetzner servers. the top post listed pieces of software, not hosting providers.
honestly pleroma is below my threshold for “automatically be very suspicious of this instance” given how it’s still popular for single-user instances. in replies, i singled out the top three but not the top four for a reason.
I'm just going to say it. Whoever designed the new notifications layout and design for Mastodon needs to go back to the drawing board (and UI design school). In some cases, esp if you start off with a tag, it looks and works horribly. (desktop view). Way worse than the old way just a month or two ago.
