This is just a lot about people's reactions to something, but nothing about what that something actually was
It'd be nice to see what the actual something was so one could judge for themselves
Edit: I took a look at his twitter, and he seems to be pro-trump and anti-kamala and anti-walz, calling him a socialist who let Minneapolis burn, as well as transphobia thrown in here and there and more that I didn't bother to read
...so I'm gonna go with "the people's reactions to him likely had a point"
Why would you think that sysadmins and application devs wouldn't want to use JPEG XL?
I'm a developer and I like the format
Well, a browser is a massive piece of software, especially if you include the development of a render engine as Firefox does
Web standards evolve constantly, you need to keep up somehow, together with optimizations, bug fixing, patching of security vulnerabilities, etc
The alternative is to never have anything better, which is not realistic
Yes, it means more code, but that's an inevitability. We already have lots of legacy stuff, like, say, floppy disk drivers
People don't need to give a shit, you just need websites and servers and applications to produce and convert images to the new format and the rest will happen "by itself'
It should be pretty much invisible to the users themselvea
That's a clever curse, because if you're a good and thoughtful person you have nothing to worry about
Although if you struggle with mental health it may be.. a bit rough
Since it's a PCB, unlikely. It's likely hardwired In the circuit. You'd need to physically change the printed label in that case
What if the notebook gets destroyed or lost, though? That's my biggest concern here
I think the bigger thing to worry about is, what would happen if your server fails or is destroyed? Would you have a backup of all your passwords? And if yes, are those backups updated regularly and stored in a safe place that also won't get destroyed if the server gets destroyed (like, say, a house fire)?
Then, yes, you got the cybersecurity angle too
It's a lot to think about for something as important and fundamental to everything you do on the internet as passwords (and accounts)
I don't disagree, but ideally quality journalism should be treated as a public good, as it's, well, a source of information about the world, an extention of education, you could say
A lot of European countries have tax-supported independent news organizations
You know what? You can find enough concrete shit from just reading his twitter for 5 minutes. Stuff posted in the last few weeks.
