Browser Extension with Blazor WASM - Cross-Browser Compatibility
The Browser Extension Working Group at W3.org proposes the web standards based on the Chrome extension manifest, which supports all web browsers. Based on that proposal, Mozilla has released the Browser Extension Polyfill library that supports the modern promise pattern instead of callback. Therefore, if you import this polyfill library, theoretically, your Chrome extension quickly turns into the browser extension that runs on multiple browser engines.

IWTL how to make simple chrome extensions.
And the biggest tip that i received late. Use Typescript type by Mozilla to make your development much easier(autocomplete, inline docs etc): https://github.com/mozilla/webextension-polyfill

It’s Like GPT-3 but for Code–Fun, Fast, and Full of Flaws
I've written extensions before and Firefox has a very good polyfill [0] that makes it quite easy to write extensions for all browsers. It does get a bit trickier if you also want to incorporate TypeScript [1] or React however.

Ask HN: Browser-extension creators, how do you write for multiple browsers?
I used WebExtension polyfill[0] when adapting my FF addon to Chrome and admittedly all the intricate differences between APIs still costed me half a day of work.
I managed to have it done with only a few places where I branch on navigator.vendor, but If I wanted to ship different versions to AMO and CWS, I'd make use of something like DefinePlugin[1] for webpack to include/exclude code based on build target.

Creating a browser extension for Safari and Chrome
Initially I created wrapper functions to convert Chrome functions that require callback to return promise instead. The better approach, as I found out later, is probably to use webextension-polyfill from Mozilla and its types.

Firefox Addons Unable to Update, Undisclosed AMO Issues
I mean, the browser apis are close (and Mozilla still has much better documentation) but there are a LOT of edges cases where behavior diverges.
Frankly - I'm a little peeved that Optional permissions in Firefox are STILL broken - The prompt can only be triggered in response to a user action, and Firefox blows the fuck up if you put a promise anywhere in between the user click and the call to the api. Which is hugely ironic, since Mozilla is the one pushing to move all the webext APIs to be promise based (and provides a nice helpful library for Chrome/Edge/Safari support: https://github.com/mozilla/webextension-polyfill) which... doesn't work on their platform. Doubly ironic, since the result is that most FF extensions just ask for more permissions up front, which is exactly the opposite of what you'd want in the "secure/private" world Mozilla claims they're pushing towards.

Thoughts on using GPT tools with databases
This is an active field of research. You might want to look at the main challenge dataset for it : https://yale-lily.github.io/spider. It would be interesting to use ChatGPT's model as a pre-processor and then feed its output in to a more finetuned model like PICARD.

It’s Like GPT-3 but for Code–Fun, Fast, and Full of Flaws
We tried using OpenAI/Davinci for SQL query authoring, but it quickly became obvious that we are still really far from something the business could find value in. The state of the art as described below is nowhere near where we would need it to be:
https://yale-lily.github.io/spider
https://arxiv.org/abs/2109.05093
https://github.com/ElementAI/picard
To be clear, we haven't tried this on actual source code (i.e. procedural concerns), so I feel like this is a slightly different battle.
The biggest challenge I see is that the queries we would need the most assistance with are the same ones that are the rarest to come by in terms of training data. They are also incredibly specific in the edge cases, many time requiring subjective evaluation criteria to produce an acceptable outcome (i.e. recursive query vs 5k lines of unrolled garbage).

[D] Discussion about fine tuning language models for generating SQL queries
Hi again! This is a surprise, we chose Apache 2 precisely so that businesses could use our code without legal problems or costs, see https://github.com/ElementAI/picard/blob/main/LICENSE. The only things that are excluded are liability and warranty. It is what it is :)
- Do you see SQL being under threat in any way as a way of querying databases? I know it's possibly a dumb question but wondering.
