  1. @mconley join us in #sapling and #jj on slack if you want some real time support

    Now we just need them to stop sending things to Google via "#GoogleSafeBrowsing" and other telemetry.

    Or get them to publicly endorse the #DigitalFeudalismCounteraAction setup that blocks the plutocrats at the network level. 😄

    If they are seriously using #MSGitHub at Mozilla, then really what hope is there?

  3. @necedema @Schouten_B @mconley Frankly, one of these days, #ReactOS is going to become the "perfect" OS for people trying to escape the proprietary systems -- not #Linux.

    Why?

    Simple, unchanging UI (no Liquid Glass shenanigans), and compatibility with the widest software library in existence.

    It has always been about what you can DO with the computer.

    I'm still sorting out how to get center-crop text node support for us with the Layout team, so in the meantime, I'm hoping we can focus on factoring out a reusable download item component that we can use in our sidebar implementation today. Let's see if we can make it work!

    We made some great progress last week, converting the download panel item UI to use HTML rather than XUL. Let's keep going and get it to look right, and if we're lucky, we can try getting it to show up in our new download sidebar that we're working on!

    After a week away, I'm back, and we're going to keep plugging away at this downloads sidebar. We got some tests started last time, let's see if we can get those done and transition the downloads item UI to use good ol' HTML across the board.

    We're going to continue on the downloads sidebar project. I got some feedback from the Reusable Components team on how best to proceed, and I think we have a plan! I'll share more at the top of the stream.

    I'm going to review some patches, and then I think I'm going to prototype showing / managing downloads in the sidebar.

    We'll get the rest of the episode guide changes merged in, and then let's take a look at some review feedback for the remote renderer stuff we wrote last week, and try to apply it / post some new revisions.

    We might find some time to work on some other things too!

    We're going to try to get the patches for the remote newtab renderer prototype ship-shape for review today. We might find some more places for writing tests too, while we're at it.

    I have a rough prototype of the remote newtab UI downloading mechanism that we've been tinkering with the last few weeks. Let's clean it up a bit and try to make it more robust!

    Today will be a slightly shorter episode due to an unskippable meeting.

    I'm going to try to walk through a hack-y prototype patch I've written to get the newtab UI code from our Remote Settings service. I also want to describe a new strategy for getting the cached streams that may involve writing a new custom protocol handler. Let's see how it goes!

    The activation window patches we've been working on for a few weeks have landed, but there's some follow-up automated testing to write. Let's try that today! Or maybe we'll do something completely different. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Today, I'm going to break down a very subtle crasher bug that I was investigating last week. Spoiler alert: it was cache invalidation.

    After that, if there's time, I might review some patches!

    I'm going to give updates and tour you through some of the code I've written for the "activation window" thing we've been hacking on for the last few episodes. And I might review some patches! It'll be fun!

    We're going to continue with the mechanism we started planning last week, to hide / change various New Tab settings during the first 48 hours of a profile's lifetime. Let's see if we can get some tests written!

  24. The Joy of Coding returns today with Episode 424! Come join me while I on !

    I'm getting back to hacking on newtab again - this time, I want to experiment with some logic for hiding top sites and stories by default during the first 48 hours of a new install's lifetime. I'm not sure how much code we'll write, but we'll certainly start sketching out ideas on how we could do this.

    We continue with our search handoff component. Today we're going to try polishing it up and getting it up for review - and then we can start thinking about the component registry on the newtab page.

    We're going to continue refactoring the hand-off search mechanism today, and trying to get its rules and behaviours encapsulated within a reusable component. Let's see how far we get!

  29. The Joy of Coding returns today with Episode 419! Come join me while I on !

    This week, we're going to make a concrete step towards the idea we started exploring last week, by cleaning up the "hand-off" search input on newtab to be simpler.
