To be fair, he also had to work with a Republican Senate to get pass any laws.
They've been pivoting the Firefox name to encompass many privacy-minded tools for a while now. I would argue that a Firefox VPN strengthens that branding.

How is this brand dilution?
What's a good word for "obtaining digital content without paying for the right to possess said digital content"?
I'm sure some people do. I prefer to pay for things though.
> Don't use any javascript frontends.
I'm struggling to find the connection between a Javascript front end and content that has (to quote the article posted) "the voice of individuals"
Hopefully this leads to the state getting good deal in the inevitable public takeover.
> You're taking it on trust that it's anonymized to the point of being impossible to make any inferences about individuals, which is a huge leap, not only in trust, but data science.
I don't doubt that someone at Mozilla could de-anonymize that data, but I have enough trust in the organization that they won't
What's your favorite thing about space? (Mine is space)
Is it any safer than pasting your auth tokens into a standalone application like Postman? That can just as easily send that information somewhere else, but now you can't press F12, get a network tab, and look at outgoing requests.
> but on the other hand, differences in "identical circuits" are often plainly audible.
I wonder how much of that is component tolerances. If you have two identical circuits with +-1% in resistors and +-5% in caps, how different would these sound with the components in each circuit at opposite ends of the tolerance range?
Seems difficult to do. You'd need to know the name and address of the voter, and be sure that that haven't voted yet, and won't try to vote after you.
I can see that happening maybe a few times, but it seems ineffective on a large scale.
- As recommended by another post, The Art of Electronics is great
- Make stuff! Adafruit has some great kits and project instructions. Find something that looks interesting and make it.
I really like a lot of functional programming techniques in JS, but the Left/Right style of error handling just always seems messy and unreadable to me.
I'm a pretty non-picky eater, but I feel like I can usually empathize with other people's picky eating habits. Not drinking water however, is something that I just can't wrap my mind around.
I highly recommend eating at Wursthall in San Mateo. It's J. Kenji López-Alt's (from Serious Eats, author of The Food Lab) restaurant.
I don't think licensure is part of the definition of "engineer"
I'd rather just have a proper headphone jack.
Can I ask where you bought it from? I've been trying to find a new one and haven't been having any luck other than eBay
Their choices in hardware make it hard for me to switch.
Since the new hardware announcements this week I'm scrambling to find a new iPhone SE to switch to from Android. I want privacy, but I also want a small phone with a proper headphone jack.
I think I'll listen to Warren Buffet's advice on index funds.
I'm a fan of a notebook and a pen.
If not "completely revolutionized," then "had a really, really, really, big impact"?
> I don't want to go to a therapist
I would maybe rethink your position on this. Going to a therapist can be scary, but it can also be incredibly beneficial.
How do I get the scope output for circuits that I build?
I would consider myself a very average programmer. I have some good experience and a good knowledge set, but I'm not super passionate about programming to drive myself to be a "great" programmer.
edit: I think the biggest thing holding me to being average at best is practical experience in larger systems. In school, I was always good at the theory parts of computer science, but did so-so in projects. In my professional experience, I think that still holds true: I can manage language intricacies, and write pretty clean code for smaller problems, but I can get into trouble with architecture-level stuff like defining models. I also have a tendency to over-engineer solutions to complex problems.
Do you find a correlation with being able to memorize a deck of cards with having a better memory with day-to-day stuff?
