Bun's http server is basically µWebSockets (C++ library) under the hood. You can also use it in Node via µWebSockets.js, the official bindings.

MDN and caniuse say otherwise. I think there might've been an older specification that got implemented, but it's been revised since

You can still re-enable the extension for now

Are there any use cases for running `cat` on a binary without at least piping it somewhere? The output will be mostly garbage

New comment by infensus in "Firefox releases tab groups for nightly"

They took the most upvoted ideas from the community forum and started implementing them. Maybe to win some users over, but I think it might be too late for this to have any impact on market share.

I'm also kinda disappointed they just copied the UI from Chrome instead of releasing a refreshed version of the previous implementation. Old Firefox tab groups were like Safari tab groups (or "workspaces" in Edge, Vivaldi, Zen and maybe others), and I think they are way better for organisation. Yeah, STG extension still exists, but having it built-in would be nice.

I wonder what's more niche, a $3500 AR headset or a giant foldable iPad

Some leaks suggest that 15th gen is achieving these results while consuming 100W less than 14th, but I guess we best wait for some real tests

It's using tab hiding, one of Firefox's non-standard extensions to the WebExtensions API. I believe this is also how Panorama used to work

By the way, built-in tab grouping is also on the list of features in development. Hopefully they don't go the Chrome way

100% agree. Most of these apps could definitely use some optimization, but trivializing them to something like "wow few MBs of javascript just to show a text box" makes this comparison completely useless

I think this was exclusive to Chrome.

https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40431598

Seems like they managed to kinda fix it in some cases, but some of the reproductions provided in the issue tracker are still working, so I would be careful

Centering like this can make your element blurry on non-hidpi screens, because transforms are not snapped to the pixel grid like layout properties, and 50% can sometimes land on a subpixel

Ah right. But it will be a bit problematic, since the subnet size may vary between different ISPs, no?

This a thing which boggles my mind. Does this mean everyone gets /64 addresses to circumvent IP bans?

They've introduced "Trending (recent votes count more)" sort option recently, but it's not the default (yet?)

I wonder how many people actually add "stackoverflow" to their search queries. For me it's basically never, because it usually will be the first result anyway
