Even with this change, I’m not sure their argument makes sense. What part of the CCPA’s definition of “sale of data” precludes them from using it is beyond me. The definition is clear about ending with “…for monetary or other valuable consideration”. So what consideration is Mozilla getting for transferring data to web servers?

I understand funding a large project like Firefox is hard. But they also have some of the most hardcore fans tech has seen. Kagi has shown that users are willing to pay (I myself use their $10/mo plan). So why can Mozilla not attempt this? A lot of us donate to Mozilla Foundation–where does that money go? How much goes to Firefox?

The ToU is in Mozilla’s Bedrock repo, but I don’t quite know what that repo does. I’m curious if Firefox forks would still be subject to it.

Yup. I might switch to Waterfox this weekend

Ugh I can’t find the xkcd about this where the guy goes, “you know what we call precisely written requirements? Code” or something like that

Borked your bootloader already? You’re a true Linux user lol. You’ll eventually learn to not do that (and back up regularly).

Good choice with Fedora! I love dnf and the choices Fedora makes overall.

I like Aptos more than Calibri, but I wish they also had a better Serif typeface than Cambria.

CMU Serif is always a good choice imo.

Times, which I think NeurIPS uses, is pretty solid.

Latin Modern Roman is another good one, used by TMLR.

IBM Plex just looks so nice too.

Yeah I worked at a place like that, but it made sense because we were also expected to keep PRs small, so a good commit message for several squashed ones was perfectly fine.

Oh god I feel so called out. I wish I paid more attention to my commit messages but I’m usually too busy fixing the directory structure and refactoring. Sigh.

Please don’t ever have kids.

Yeah, on its own this is a good feature and I don’t have to write my own version based on the GDPR data request.

GBA SP

Curiosity, followed by realizing how good it is for development.

It’s more about getting the portafilter hot too.

As for the on button, I use a SwitchBot Bot.

Can you recommend a good VPS service? I’ve been meaning to get a Synology, but it’s out of my budget for now.

Interesting. Sounds like DevOps folks would love it. Maybe I’ll look into it more. Thanks!

Computer Science! My work is on applied machine learning for software analytics.

Can someone tell me the recent hype about immutable distros? What exactly is the immutable part, and why is it attractive?

I’ll be getting my PhD in the Spring! Hopefully I’ll have a job lined up before graduating.

Honestly I get both sides of it. Your view makes sense as an end-user and from a philosophical perspective. But some people have legacy software that needs conflicting dependency versions, for instance. It’s just a trade-off.
