This is actively preventing me from sending packages to other countries as a maker. No matter how small the risk is, I don't want to risk a 5000 euro fine for sending a small amount of packages to other EU countries.

Anthropic mostly had an advantage in speed. It feels like with a 25% increase in speed with Codex 5.3, they are now losing that advantage as well.

Similar thing happened to me 3 months ago. To this day no response to any appeals. I've actually started a GDPR request to see why I got banned, which they're stretching out as long as possible (to the latest possible deadline) so far.

I usually use Screaming Frog SEO Spider to find the broken links. Works very well!

Tried to play around with some JSX but unfortunately it keeps throwing the error that React is not defined.

Looks cool though!

Would like to try it when it comes out on Android :)

The first link to the PDF unfortunately doesn't work.

I've worked for a company that released a product exactly like this. They went bankrupt 6 months later.

I hope you'll have more success, but at this moment I cannot see anything in there that makes it better than the product that the company I worked for was working on..

Great, another release not supported by Spectron so you can't actually write tests for it.

This post seems very focused on projects with just a single developer. The "recognizing and tagging" versions for example completely breaks down when you have multiple people commit and merging things to master and multiple pipelines running that are trying to recognize and tag versions.

Really cool. Would be nice if it had a format option in the editor however. Copy pasting CSS around was becoming a bit annoying because I have to format it manually.

New comment by Robin_f in "Why are browsers so slow?"

Robin_f — Thu, 22 Dec 2016 09:05:47 +0000

Alright, good to know. I had the idea that they were going in the same direction as Chrome.

Robin_f — Wed, 21 Dec 2016 12:04:29 +0000

This is mostly because Chrome starts a new process for each tab. However, Firefox is also heading in this direction.

This looks really good. I'm only missing an option to put in formatted code or something.

This is awesome! Would be really cool if something like this would exist as a 2d animation so we can see what would happen with different kinds of input.

Robin_f — Thu, 10 Nov 2016 09:43:41 +0000

That would be awesome! Most components do require props tho, how would you deal with that? As in, I know you can pass the props, but you would have to define some CI testing props for each component.

Works fine here Chrome on Debian. Seems really cool, but the amount of people here that are saying it doesn't work is worrisome..

Yes, checking out the repository in a folder named js is less than helpful.
