And I thought developers were bad at naming.

The Microsoft school of naming things is really showing their ways

get rid of companies making money off the FOSS

I’m afraid if we discourage companies from adopting open source we’ll end up with even more closed source garbage.

There are industry sectors where closed source is the norm, and it just leads to more vendor lock-in and less standardization and interop.

I’m a bit young to say for sure, but I believe closed source was the norm in the software world 20-30 years ago and openness was stigmatized. I certainly don’t want to live in that world.

it does work though, on windows i can see ads and intrusive crap all the time. Linux distros don’t bother you at all, it’s like linux is not even trying at this point.

you can be anything you want, bud, don’t let them tell you otherwise!

GTA online was fun from 2015 until a couple years later before flying bikes and sky races. R* kept pushing updates that appeal to teenagers and absolutely ruined it.

this is what I’m talking about, Pete. It’s for your own good. This obsession with gathering data has to stop.

1. Keep Commits Small: Ensure commits are small and manageable to facilitate easy reverts and debugging.
2. Continuous Refactoring: Prioritize frequent, minor refactorings to simplify future changes.
3. Deploy Continuously: Regularly deploy code to ensure it works in production, as working software is progress.
4. Trust Frameworks: Avoid over-testing framework capabilities; focus on application-specific logic.
5. Create Independent Modules: Place functions in new modules if they don’t fit existing ones, preserving code organization.
6. Write Tests Early: Use tests to design APIs and guide development, but don’t be rigid about TDD.
7. Avoid Duplication: Prevent repeated code by abstracting similar implementations after copying once.
8. Embrace Change: Accept and adapt to evolving designs, understanding that change is intrinsic to software development.
9. Manage Technical Debt: Focus on minimizing immediate blockers and plan for potential future issues.
10. Prioritize Testability: Ensure that your code and design facilitate easy testing to maintain code quality and coverage.

Unknown share is high too; Linux usage on desktop in Antarctica could be as high as 15%.

valid question, idk why would people downvote it

broken websites on desktop are rare and not nearly enough to drive a browser change, but they usually fall into two categories:

1. websites that “break” on purpose for no good reason when they detect it’s not chromium. Either avoid the site or change the user agent.

2. websites that degrade some functionalities because they rely on newer features or on how things appear on chromium. They’re usually CSS breakages and do not affect browsing that much.

Support for manifest v2 greatly outweighs these potential issues imo.
