Sounds like it should just be public infrastructure and the government pays to maintain it.

Governments have paid to maintain a finance system since the introduction of token money (by minting the currency as a public good; also funding policing to prevent counterfeit) so this is effectively the same.

> Firefox has robust profile support which creates completely separate identities. If you have a Work profile and a Personal profile and want to sync each, you need separate Mozilla accounts for each, though.

Depending on your use case, you should check out https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account...

It has completely eliminated my need to have multiple browser profiles.

I remember talking to a Seattle PD officer about how they could consistently earn more overtime hours in fortnight than there are in a fortnight with the right schedule/time-off choreography with everyone else in the department. And that’s on top of their “regular” hours.

I’m glad judges are sick of their feet dragging. I’m sad it’s not happening to Apple too though.

GP is asking why we’re stuck with TTYs (the typewriter interface) as the mechanism for applications to draw the text based UIs.

They already know it's a problem: https://blogs.windows.com/windows-insider/2026/03/20/our-com...

So it is genuinely crazy that they are still doing things like this.

Edit: I should also add that a migration away from Windows has a huge network effect so its important for them to stop the bleeding to prevent them hemorrhaging users later.

Before I could read different articles, posts and emails on different topics from different authors and read a variety of ways of expressing things. Now it's just the same way of expressing a point and I think the lack of variety is what triggers the fatigue.

Either a switch in my brain flipped or something is making them all sound like they’re perpetually trying to make a sales pitch.

No one talks or writes like this:

> So the flags are a filter, not a verdict. Every alert still ends with a human reading the diff. I'd rather say that than pretend the classifier is smarter than it is.

Especially not for a post ostensibly capturing legalese change in company TOSs.

Did I start noticing it more or is the writing getting worse?

Most give a canned response of "we can't do anything" ̄\_(ツ)_/ ̄ but some small sites do something. GitLab has the most annoying CF bouncer and I moved my company off them once I got the we can't do anything about it response.

Are you sure it's not that you use your foot to manipulate a ball?

> Regarding the use of UB internally: It's okay and if anyone is worried about it the use of UB is benign on the platforms we target (e.g., they don't involve hitting any hardware trap representations for these types)

Isn't the outcome of the UB (ie. whether it will "rm -rf /" or something else) dependent on both the target and the compiler? And the compiler (or future compiler) could plausibly make the assumption that the narrowing to an unrepresentable value will never occur and change behaviour because of it?

That doesn’t pass the sniff test

Pot meet kettle?

If quite literally every person I interact with professionally has an anecdote about this happening, your anecdote about it not happening is not very convincing.

Have you/SO staff/SO mods considered why this impression is so prevalent if you’re confident it’s (as you claim) not actually true?

That’s seems like a thing I want a regulator to do. A regulator making decisions only on first order effects seems doomed to fail.
