"Quite a seven years ago", sounds like a Strong Bad-ism. "That's got like, WAY four more cylinders than the standard Nathan."

I toured a farm in the middle of nowhere in northern MN 7 years ago with this exact system.

I want to second this.

I don't mind the general visual update. But the change to the copy buttons was a step backwards.

To the bitwarden folks... if I'm opening up the extension 99% of the time it's one of these use cases:

1. I'm creating a login for a new site

2. I'm on a site that doesn't support autofill, and I'm manually copying user/pass/code

3. I'm filling credit card info, and want to select a specific card

Both #2 and #3 got worse with this change. Put the damn copy buttons in the huge amount of whitespace you have for the entry. Don't hide them in an overflow. Put each of the user/pass/2fa buttons in a fixed space, and don't move them.

Good, I'm not the only one. Fully agree with the UX regression on 2 and 3.

I've actually been employing Emoji Separated Values (ESV), often , here and there when doing some of this kind of work. Granted, it's not standard, but it's been really useful when I've needed it.

*edit Apparently emojis don't fly here, but it was an index finger pointing right.

:wave: Hey all. I'm the author. This content is over ten years old now (2013), as is the slide tech backing it.

Hopefully it's obvious that the click-to-advance is a style that suits my presentation style, and I would have made different choices if I intended it to be consumed online.

In any case, I've learned a lot since this talk and have on occasion considered updating it. I'm pretty surprised it's trending, TBH.

Are you referring to something other than the fact that the chat can exceed the context window length? Nothing will ever solve that issue, unless context windows become virtually infinite.
bombledmonk · 2 years ago
It would certainly be nice if it could warn you when you are getting close to the beginning of the chat running off the end of it's capabilities.

In regards to treestyletab did you get rid of the top tabs or do you have both on your screen. I feel like i lost quite a lot of real estate on smaller screens with both.
bombledmonk · 2 years ago
I got rid of the top row.

The killer app for Firefox is it still allows some flexibility in tab management. Sidebery and TreeStyleTab have been my anchors in the FF ecosystem. The experience is so vastly superior for tab hoarders and tab-todo methodology that I really can't imagine using something else. I also use FF on android because it has ublock origin and dark reader addons. This make browsing the web on mobile far better. I actually hold little allegiance to FF as whole, I just haven't found any Chromium based browser that works as well for me.

I own the book and highly recommend it for any curious adults, but especially for kids interested in electronics related fields. I really wish I had this book when I was growing up.

I think this should be part of required reading for EE101 type classes in college. The hardcover for $25 shipped on amazon, it's really something everyone in electronics should own.
