  • Why Bother With uBlock Being Blocked In Chrome? Now Is The Best Time To Switch To Firefox
    1 project | /r/technology | 28 Nov 2023
    For Android, I use Iceraven, a Firefox fork built with Firefox stable's code that adds more options, features, customizations, and extensions than Firefox for Android has. So I won't have to switch from that even when the Chromium based browsers potentially all adopt Mv3 fully and drop Mv2, because I've already got a browser on that platform which hopefully will be immune that I'm already using not because of what may happen in the future, but because it's my favorite browser.

    It should be noted that Iceraven is not compiled from source, ie. it only compiles the UI/app layer, and not the engine or other components.

    Full disclosure: I maintain Mull and Fennec F-Droid.

  • Mark Nottingham: Server-Sent Events, WebSockets, and HTTP
    11 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 19 Feb 2022
    Here is an event stream abstraction that has very strong semantics (exactly once in most cases) with simple usage examples, native HTTP and websockets APIs, strong atomicity and durability guarantees [1].

    What it doesn’t have is clustering and a father that’s != null at marketing =]

  • ZooKeeper-free Kafka is out. First Demo
    14 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 30 Mar 2021
    Hi Alexander ! I'm a big fan of the work you do at vectorizedio and of your blog posts ! I strongly believe there's a need for much simpler event streaming and room for improvement performance-wise.

    I took a different path by divorcing from the Kafka protocol and experimenting with what I believe is a simpler to model approach to reliable event processing [1].
