Maybe a naive question, but why should one reprogram keys in hardware instead of software (xmodmap, xkb, xcape etc.)?
to have it transfer between different computers i would assume.

Good on them for shipping. Followed them for awhile, but eventually went with a keyboard.io. I'm rarely traveling whilst needing a dedicated keyboard, and all the extra add ons weren't necessary for me.
got a keyboard.io as well but gave up on trying to learn typing on ortho.

I agree.
Yes, it will cost a lot and yes we need to find a way to fund it, but giving all communities fair access to education is in everyone's best interest.
Increasing the base level of education makes everyone a more intelligent, informed citizen and voter, and will have a positive impact on the progression of our country. I think it's a bad idea to be penny pinching in this regard. I also think everyone being educated, and learning how to think for themselves (which I find is the key greatest value of getting higher education) will keep the people in power from herding everyone around like sheep, and will lead to more progress and innovation.
I will gladly pay a higher portion of my salary if it means the general populous can think for themselves, has a means to climb if they wish to, and the base level of education of the people in my country increases.
would not increasing the base level of education decrease the chance of the currently ruling party staying in power? does not seem like a wise course of action (edit: for them).
Nice - but I wish it didn't take over the New Tab button since I use that for quick access; Since it's icon is in the status bar, why not just click on it to open a markdown tab?
*Edit: Yes, I know it's in the name of the extension :-) -- just wish I could change the default.
just fork it and add your "quick access" at the top of the page?
i've been using a custom new-tab-page extension for a long time, it even comes with an integrated alarm-clock!
That won't really work for the scenario they try to "protect" against.
When you copy some js files that include their license checking code to your server and them serve it to your clients, your clients need to block qeys.io, not you.
You can instruct clients to do that of course, but it's rather easy for one of them to forget and the copyright holder is noticed.
Still, blocking qeys.io by default on your system sounds like a good idea :)
if it's for internal use, you most likely have access to the DNS-server the clients are using, not an unlikely scenario when it comes to licensed code like this i would imagine.

It is not only about violating licenses, rather leeching whatever software they feel like it, without give a cent back.
And there is no way to validate that.
i would assume they are not contributing but if i wanted to find out if they did, i'd ask them.
should be fairly easy to validate if you know what they're contributing to.
while i agree with your point about this being sub-optimal for both software-development and free software as a whole, i think it is a separate issue.

Well I cannot see what they run on their servers, so it is anyone's guess.
At least with native code I can check what is on my hard disk.
And given my experience, it is hardly the case any company outside the big SV ones or whose main business is unrelated to software, that actually bothers to contribute anything back.
the only widely used license that i know of that would get violated by this kind of use (i think) is the AGPL.
I like the push to create project feature. Lowers the barrier to entry that much more when I can just take a repo and push it without having to think about config & setup beforehand.
it's a nice feature to have but adding a repo via the web interface didn't take more than a few seconds at most. not quite sure what config & setup you are referring to other than the name of the repo, not a whole lot of other things need to be specified, if any.
Ultimately, it would be great if we could benchmark against every terminal emulator, but that can become a very time-consuming task. If there's another emulator you feel should be included, we can consider it for future updates/benchmarks.
