  • This is a feature I want to love so much whenever I’ve used it in the past. It’s great, it’s useful, it’s super awesome … then, I just open 10,000 tabs [ok, that’s an exaggeration, but I currently have 42 open and that’s not even a lot] and they’re scattered all over the place anyways and I can’t seem to force myself to keep them grouped properly!

    To anyone that can get their brain to actually utilize this feature, congrats that it’s finally coming to Firefox!





  • From an outsiders perspective, a lot of the “politics” seemed to be that Rust devs would try to change behavior they saw as bugs and Linus would have to be like: “it doesn’t matter, we don’t break userspace functionality with changes we make to the kernel! [not a direct quote, but a paraphrase]”

    Devs not wanting to learn Rust is something I’m not at all equipped to comment on since I don’t know C or Rust (some C++, python, Powershell and a few other scripting languages though) so I can’t say how difficult that transition would be, but at the very least it seems like they must not be convinced of its need.

    Anyone with more knowledge able to chime in on if it seems this is a self induced problem on their end or genuinely something the other kernel devs are being difficult to work with?

    ETA: My memory of this seems to be completely incorrect! Sorry for the misinformation!
