Ever since JvT was pushed out by shareholders eager for profit, and Lars stepped in, they have stopped listening to users. Many old timers now work at Vivaldi. And even folks like Haavard left - https://opvard.wordpress.com/

If you need a thousand words to say something, put it on Medium or Tumblr or any of the hundreds of other blogging and social media platforms. I dont mind a minor tweak of the char. limit, but the rumored 1000 word limit is way too much. Th

As far as I know, this is the first time Snowden is directly penning an article. He even has a staff page [1] now on The Intercept. This is interesting because to me because "At the NSA I routinely came across the communications of New

I'm a fan of this fanfic. I gave up due to the glacial pace of updates. But, this fanfic has been discussed on HN several times. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1898783 https://news.ycombinator.com&#x2

TIL that intermissions don't exist in a lot of countries. I always get pop-corns and coke during the second half. No wonder the theaters often cut to black (for a break) at abrupt points during Hollywood films. A lot of Bollywood films

Exactly. It just seems to be fashionable to write a blog post bashing W3Schools, PHP etc. Yes, some of their content might have technical inaccuracies. Yes, the design is dreadful. But, when you're quickly looking to find out what are
