That may be so but Claude code certainly has rendering glitches in other terminals too.

I use jj but not mega merges. But as I understand it you're not going to push the merge itself for review. It allows you to work locally on multiple branches at once. But when ready you push the individual branch, pre merge, for review

There's a configurable setting for which changes are marked as immutable. The default works perfectly for my workflow (pull-only from upstream, rewrite and push freely to my fork). other workflows may presumably need to tweak it https

Surely your criteria should be some combination of the two (plus other factors). C may have fewer footguns than C++, but it still has many, whilst also lacking many useful features

I’m a Mozilla employee who works on Firefox, so I’ll try to answer this to the best of my knowledge but as a disclaimer I can’t guarantee I’m 100% correct Paying for relay will give money to Mozilla Corporation, the same pot the google mone

Did you consider using wgpu instead of writing a new dx11 renderer? It has metal, vulkan and dx12 backends so could have been used for a single renderer for macOS windows and Linux. (And webgpu in the future)

I am a Firefox developer, and you're spot on. Previously there were separate hg repos for central, beta, release. I think ESRs too. And autoland. Now they're all branches in the same repo, and central is renamed main. Commits land

That problem is solved by preventing forced pushes. Rewriting history locally is encouraged.

You can not use it. I rarely do, but I love zed, it's fast and the LSP (rust and clangd in my case) just work

Because people are interested in how technology is built, and if they’re interested in rust they might be interested in seeing how it’s used in other projects

Download firefox from the mozilla website instead of using the ubuntu package and this won't happen. Or disable auto upgrades.

Perhaps it's because you didn't start the exchange with enquiry, but instead claimed that what happens in your country is "exactly what every country does"

It's certainly not normal in my country for schools to display the country's motto or flag, nor do children pledge allegiance to anything. We did sing some hymns though.

Some examples of things I've used telemetry for at Mozilla: * Noticed performance regressions not caught by our testing, and therefore been able to fix the regression. * Noticed an unexpected number of users with hardware acceleration

I'm not sure what should be done about it, but again don't see the relevance of that question. Your argument was that there's value to be had out of such a debate, which there isn't. And that a debate cannot be misinform

To be fair though, the freeze was probably caused by a xul extension. I switched from Gmail to fastmail last week, after planning to do so "one day" for a few years. Using a mixture of the web client and Thunderbird, just like I d

Or maybe, just maybe, people have a different opinion to yourself about how Mozilla can succeed.

It could be because it matches the order of glsl's `mix()`. Not sure why glsl chose that order, though perhaps you might find it less unintuitive for an interpolation than a select. (Mix acts as a select rather than interpolation when

Actually the guardian headline is perfectly accurate. It completely is accurate to say the algorithm has a bias, even if that bias isn't "if (right-wing) then amplify()" > If you search for the word “bias” in Twitter’s pos
