There's a now a whole group of blocklists targeted specifically at cookie banners in uBlock Origin settings.


If it happens on a remote machine, maybe this:

(I hope it is, there's something ironic in John Nagle complaining about network-induced latency in interactive sessions.)


Is there anything in UX that can't be ruined by security people?



Sometimes this might not work, in that case try a different extension or different user agent strings. I had to go through a few before I found one that worked.


Most of those "cannot copes" can be fixed by changing the user agent to that of Chrome. Most sites that refuse to work in other browsers simply don't test on anything but Chrome and don't want the support burden.

Today yes, but that could start to change if most tech people stop using Chrome, which they will if they can't block ads easily. Plus many average semi-tech-savvy people use ad blockers and will kick up a fuss and switch if their browsing becomes suddenly ad-ridden. If Chrome gets a reputation like AOL or something, then it won't be as acceptable for a website to only support Chrome.

How much time is saved by not having to go to the gym? I'd imagine 80 minutes of cycling every working day is more than enough to maintain health.


Good point! It checks the cardio box for that day.

I don't do it every day though. I only go into the office 3 days a week and for much of the summer it's too hot for me to bike (I'm in Austin, TX). I can manage up until about 101F/38C, but anything after that feels dangerous.


It's a lottery with these novelty TLDs. If you use them, setup your configuration such that you can move to another TLD easily.

.nets and .coms increase in price too, but they don't tend to jump by 100% in a single year like these novelty ones, which were created purely to make money for the registry.

e.g. https://tld-list.com/blog/tld-wholesale-price-increase-2023

  TLD         Old     New     Percent  Date
  .reviews    $17.00  $40.00  135.29%  2023-10-04
  .furniture  $38.00  $80.00  110.53%  2023-10-04
  .faith      $4.98   $9.98   100.40%  2023-09-04
  .racing     $4.98   $9.98   100.40%  2023-09-04
  .review     $4.98   $9.98   100.40%  2023-09-04
  .science    $4.98   $9.98   100.40%  2023-09-04


$2k is roughly six median monthly salaries in my country, which is pretty typical for the world we live in. Maybe even on the larger side. I am fully aware you don't care about most of the world and will advise us to follow some other pursuit, I've heard this many times before. (Which we do, Apple is not really relevant outside the US.)


A large chunk of meson functionality is supported by muon, which is a pure C implementation with no dependencies. I tested it for fun with several projects and it was indistinguishable from "proper" meson. Haven't tried with anything large like qemu or systemd, though.

https://muon.build


I tried to use muon once and immediately discovered that it rejects passing a dict to the project() function, does not support cross-compilation, and a few other things I consider important. I hope it continues to close the gap.

But also, I still don't have an answer to "I want to build with -fvisibility=hidden and also have unit tests" that isn't "libtool".


Last I checked meson supports unit testing shared libraries just fine, as well as building both static and shared libraries "both_libraries()". This integrates fine with testing, though it modifies the binaries' rpath for library search instead of wrapping them in a script like libtool does.


Even if you build your shared objects with -fvisibility=hidden?


Because it needs to be decrypted at some point?
