On one hand I'd say you have a reason to panic but on the other it's no secret that in the US might makes right so it's not like the overall situation has changed dramatically.

The problem is that the number of browser engines is n=2.

Interestingly, Ladybird, which aims at being the n = 3, is also written in C++.

YouTube is literally unusable without browser extensions or a third-party app

Taskbar icons in the middle are a symbol of general direction Windows is going towards. It's the tipping point where we say enough is enough. We're tired of anti-consumer changes. It's different from Vista or 8 which failed despite MS believing in it. This time MS gives us shit and they know it and they don't care. Microsoft doesn't hold the entire PC OS market hostage like it was the case only ten years ago, and if your use case is development + video games + porn, then Linux is a viable option, which definitely wasn't the case ten years ago.

Not yet. But Google itself would ask you for your resume if you happened to search for a lot of things related to programming.

Yes, I remember a friend that interned there a couple times showed me that. One of them was “list comprehensive python” and the Google website would split in 2 and give you some really fun coding challenges. I did a few, and you get 4(?) right you get a guaranteed interview I think. I intended to come back and spend a lot of time on an additional one, but I never did. Oops

I think I only did three or something and I didn't hear back from them. Honestly my view of Google is that they aren't as cool as they think they are. My current position allows me to slack off as much as I want and it's hard to beat that, even if they offer more money (they won't in the current market).

"Ask you for your resume" is a funny way of saying "Show an advertisement to invite people to apply for a job"

Not to mention two giant problems with the entire scientific community:

1. It just sucks at communication. Many people have been misled because marketeers lied to them "it's scientifically proven!" while scientists did nothing to fix that, because they only cared about preserving communication channels between themselves. The mistrust in science is obvious if you take this into account.

2. At the end of the day, scientists are people who have their biases and weaknesses. There have been well-documented cases of the entire scientific community doing a massive fuckup. So when now a bunch of scientists come and say "trust us bro, this time it's legit" it's reasonable to be sceptical.

You guys are getting bugfixes?

Ofc to the root kit installed by "them", better battery life and WiFi stability.
