#can you imagine the firefox add ons?

[ms-demeanor]

Every discussion of Firefox eventually becomes, "Yeah, ok, you need a dozen extensions to make it usable, and the extensions then slow it down". So convenient and simple! Can't imagine why it has no market share.

You can install firefox right now today and have better security and privacy than chrome right out of the gate and with no add-ons or settings changes. You don't need any extensions to prevent firefox from collecting data about every single thing you ever do anywhere on the internet.

But also. Did you pull something with that reach? Misinterpreting "here are extensions you can use; be cautious with what extensions you DO use because some extensions can impact performance" to mean "this browser is unusable without add-ons that cause a performance hit" is either a hell of a backbend or D minus reading comprehension.

Hello! Would you ever consider bringing back different post types, especially audio? I appreciate that audio posts now display the artist, song title, and album name, but unfortunately newer audio posts don’t play in Tumblr-based music players like egoisticalgoat.de or robinpx.github.io/boombox because they’re read as text posts. Thank you for reading!

Answer: Hey there, @stepintomusic!

Sadly, the answer here is no. We’ve been moving away from legacy post types and towards the Neue Post Format—a format that allows multiple types of media in the same post—for many years. The new features available in NPF basically guarantee that we won’t ever switch back to the legacy format.

(If you’re interested in peeking behind the scenes here, there are a few posts about NPF over at @engineering.)

Now, to get into the meat of the issue. While it would be amazing if we could support every third-party tool forever, the reality is that we can’t. We’re a surprisingly small team to begin with, and even if we weren’t, that support would come at a cost.

To start, there’s the development tax. Now, would it have been cool to ensure all third-party tools (and all custom themes) worked 100% perfectly with posts stored as NPF before releasing NPF to the public? Yeah, it would have been… for third-party tools and custom themes. For us, it would have meant delaying NPF (and all the features it brings with it) for months, possibly years. Imagine a 2023 where Tumblr still doesn’t have polls: that’s the alternate future we’re talking about here.

And then, there’s our maintenance tax. The engine that powers Tumblr themes is already incredibly complicated—complicated to the point that we’re already finding it difficult to maintain and add things like, as you mentioned, NPF audio metadata. If, every time we found some third-party tool that doesn’t play nice with the latest changes, we tried to make an affordance for it… the engine would just become even more complex. And it would do so quickly, and complex to the point of being impossible to keep up with as a maintainer.

There’s a great article here by a former Mozilla developer about the pitfalls of prioritizing a third-party ecosystem over your own software. Did you know that Firefox was essentially a single-threaded application until 2018? This meant it would still visually lock up when saving files to disk, or collecting crash data. Chrome launched in 2008 and was multiprocess from the start. But it took Firefox ten years to catch up because supporting all existing third-party add-ons was seen as necessary. (Spoiler alert: in the end, they had to drop support for those add-ons anyway.)

My own recommendation around third-party software like this is: get in contact with its developer! If something in their software isn’t working, there’s nobody more qualified to update it. (Or, if they’ve abandoned the project but had made it open-source, maybe someone else could step up to maintain it. Maybe you! You never know until you try.)

I talked about the maintenance tax from the first-party side, but let’s talk about it from the third-party side, too. As a theme author and add-on developer myself, I have long accepted that the cost of maintaining these things can never be zero. When your software interacts with an online service, and that online service is being actively maintained, your software also needs to be maintained.

I hope all this has been enlightening! Thanks for your question, and please, have a great day.

Selenium WebDriver Made Simple: Automate Like a Pro

If you’ve ever wondered how websites get tested without a human clicking every button or filling out every form, the answer might just be Selenium WebDriver. It’s one of the most popular tools used in software testing and automation.  If you want to advance your career at the Selenium Course in Pune, you need to take a systematic approach and join up for a course that best suits your interests and will greatly expand your learning path. In this blog, we’ll break it down for you in simple terms.

What is Selenium WebDriver?

Selenium WebDriver is an open-source tool used for automating web browser actions. It lets you write code to simulate real user actions like clicking buttons, filling out forms, or navigating between pages. The magic is that WebDriver interacts directly with the browser, just like a person would. Think of it as a robot that takes over your browser to perform tasks you’d normally do manually. For those looking to excel in Selenium, Selenium Online Course is highly suggested. Look for classes that align with your preferred programming language and learning approach.

Benefits of Using Selenium WebDriver

Saves Time: Testing a website manually can be slow and repetitive. Selenium WebDriver speeds this up by automating the process.

Accuracy: Human testers can miss things or make mistakes. Automated tests are consistent and precise every time.

Cross-Browser Testing: Websites need to work on different browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari. WebDriver makes it easy to test your site on all of them.

Open Source: It’s free to use and has a huge community of developers who can help if you get stuck.

Real-Life Example

Imagine you have an e-commerce site, and you want to test if the checkout process works. With Selenium WebDriver, you could:

Open the browser and navigate to the site.

Search for a product.

Add the product to the cart.

Fill out the checkout form.

Submit the form and verify if the order was placed successfully.

All of this can be automated with a few lines of code!

Key Features of Selenium WebDriver

Cross-Platform: Works on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Multiple Language Support: Use Python, Java, C#, JavaScript, Ruby, or PHP.

Integration-Friendly: Combine with other tools like TestNG, JUnit, or CI/CD pipelines for advanced testing.

Handles Dynamic Content: Can test modern websites with JavaScript-heavy elements.

Limitations of Selenium WebDriver

While it’s a powerful tool, it does have some limitations:

It’s only for web applications (you can’t test desktop or mobile apps directly).

Setting up WebDriver can be tricky for beginners.

Debugging scripts might take time if something doesn’t work.

It doesn’t come with built-in reporting; you’ll need to use third-party tools for detailed test results.

Selenium WebDriver is like a virtual assistant for web testing. It’s powerful, flexible, and widely used by developers and testers around the world. Whether you’re building a small website or a large web application, learning Selenium WebDriver can save you hours of manual work and help ensure your site works perfectly for all users.

So why not give it a try? Start small, automate a few tasks, and before you know it, you’ll be creating robust test scripts like a pro!

I Finished Veilguard (Spoilers Version)

This is my spoilery Veilguard post! And also my screenshot dumping post, because I didn't want to have to worry about spoilers when I have an entire game worth of screenshots to share (I meant to make more posts while I was playing, but I wanted to finish before I had to go back to work, so I was on a time limit... and Firefox has been crashing my PC lately, so I had to keep it closed while I was playing u_u).

SPOILERS UNDER THE CUT

I have no idea where to even start.

Like I said in the other post, I really enjoyed the game. I've been waiting almost a decade for some of these plot threads to get resolved, or have literally anything done with them, and now it's over.

I played as a Mourn Watch elf, romancing Lucanis, with an Inquisitor that romanced Solas and vowed to save him.

And it was a great first playthrough! I loved my faction, I loved that I got to react to all of the elf stuff as an elf without any "What's Mythal?" moments*, and I absolutely loved what ended up happening with Solas and the Inquisitor in my playthrough. I expected nothing, maybe a throwaway line at most, but there was so much more than that.

(* speaking of this, it was funny to me how much elven Lavellan used while speaking to Solas. Making up for the past, I see. :P (Though she uses a fair amount in Trespasser as well, I suppose.))

The game was gorgeous, IMO, especially when it came to textures and lighting. I'm so glad a BioWare game finally has good hair, it's like a miracle.

I can't think of much I didn't enjoy, in the end, especially when thinking about the game as a whole. I do think it's too bad there's a forced sacrifice, I guess, but IMO that's necessary sometimes, unfortunately. I'm not sure how poorly everything could go because I got the "best" ending; I might experiment with it eventually, especially if it's needed for achievements.

I think the companion quests were pretty good, and I enjoyed the ones where you're just hanging out with a companion somewhere. Sometimes they got a little overwhelming? But that's probably because I was pushing myself to finish the game before I had to go back to work, at least partially.

Rook is a fun protagonist, IMO; a good balance between Hawke and the Inquisitor. I'm not sure how "same-y" Rooks will feel between playthroughs, but hopefully there's enough of a difference with tonal options that it doesn't feel like I'm playing the same character over and over again...?

My biggest criticism about Rook (and kind of the start of the game) is that I really wish they would have allowed players to play through The Incident that got them sent away from their factions for a while. It would've been a good intro to the factions and game mechanics, a good intro to Rook meeting Varric, and then you could've had a time skip to where the game starts now. It also would've provided the space for some of the roleplaying decisions you make in the meditation room in the Lighthouse, if they wanted.

That said! Rook grew on me very quickly, and I'm genuinely sad to leave them behind now. I would love at least one DLC or something, but I know that BioWare has said they've got everyone working on the next Mass Effect now... :( And I love Mass Effect, don't get me wrong! But I really love Dragon Age.

Like I said above, I don't know how poorly things can go in the ending, so maybe that complicates things too. The more variables you add, the more you have to account for when it comes to DLC, which means more time and money spent. The game coming out at all is a miracle, so hoping for more might just be greedy at this point. (Still going to hope, though...)

I read the comics and read through Tevinter Nights/the site's short stories, so I picked up on all of the cameo appearances. I think my favourites were Antoine and Evka (they made Antoine so cute), Teia, and Myrna, appearance-wise! I was happy to see Viago as well, but for some reason I imagined him being a little heavier?? So seeing him skinny was a bit of a shock to me haha.

I thought it was a bit weird sometimes to be making life decisions for the companions, but overall I was happy with my decisions. I was torn about the one for Emmrich, because my Rook could've gone either way... but eventually I went with the more emotional option rather than the straightforwardly intellectual one (my Rook is a compassionate, peppy, goth nerd (without the goth clothing options sob)).

I only felt bad about one decision I made... but I would have felt bad either way for that one, so... RIP me I guess. Well, actually, I felt bad about two decisions and both of them were ones I would've felt bad about either way haha (but one would've also locked me out of my Lucanis romance, which is obviously unacceptable).

The Lucanis romance was something that I loved, but definitely wished there was a little more to. Not enough to be upset about it, but... I feel like I'll definitely be glad it was my first romance once I do another playthrough, judging by comments I've heard. Even just one more scene between acknowledging that Rook was interested and them being together would've been fine, IMO! Or after them getting together but before the other stuff, I don't know.

In the end they're super cute together so I don't really care too much, it's just something that I noticed while playing. I'm definitely hoping there'll be fanfic to fill in some blanks... or I might have to actually write something myself (unlikely, but not impossible).

To be honest, there were some moments during Crow quests too where I thought Lucanis would speak up for sure and he just... didn't, so I'm not sure what's up with that, either. Bugged companion responses? Nothing written for some reason? Maybe he was half-asleep and Spite was bored. Who knows, I guess. (Again, though, overall I really enjoyed Lucanis and his romance.)

I loved the wing thing in his romance scene. Very cute.

Look at the cute smile on his face as he looks at Rook 😭Augh they're adorable, I just wish there was more... maybe I'll have to commission something. Probably them cuddling and drinking coffee or Lucanis napping on Rook's lap or something, idk. Something cute, more than likely. (If you know of any artists that might be interested and has comms open, let me know. >_>)

Getting sidetracked, oops...

I enjoyed all of the companions; if I had to pick a least favourite, it would probably be either Davrin or Taash. I enjoyed them both still! But the former has the problem of griffons being nearly his entire identity, and the latter has the problem of their... well, identity being nearly their entire identity. There's enough other stuff there that I don't dislike them, but in comparison to the others I just felt they weren't as interesting, personally.

I'm hoping that maybe their romances will add more to them...? But we'll see.

I swear I had more specific things to say, but I can't remember them at all, so I guess I'll end things here! I'm happy to answer any questions anyone might have, with spoilers or as spoiler-free as I can make it, and I guess now I've got to decide what to do next.

The Beginner's Guide to Website Development

Imagine entering a massive digital city where every building is a separate website with its own purpose and design. Imagine becoming an architect in this vast information city instead of a visitor. Welcome to website development, the thrill! Start building your digital domain with this beginner's guide. Website design opens us unlimited opportunities for sharing your passion, skills, or business. In this article, we'll teach you how to convert that blank digital canvas into a masterpiece that draws international visitors. Join us on this exciting quest to turn ideas into reality, one pixel at a time.

1. Web Development

How are websites made?

Websites are files and code on a computer connected to the Internet. Chrome, Firefox, or Safari load pages. This is the client. These two form the "server-client model."

In real life, a friend sends you a humorous movie link. When you click the link, your browser (client) requests the video file from the video website (server). The website server transfers the file to your PC when requested. 

Clients are the "front end," and servers are the "back end." Front end web developers build client-side features, whereas back-end developers develop server-side features. They understand both front-end and back-end technologies and use the "full stack" of programming technology. 

Understanding their differences can help you choose one for your career. Discuss the differences between front-end, back-end, and full-stack web development. 

How is front-end development done?

Front-end developers produce website content. This group can run menus, buttons, and animations on a client's computer. Front-end developers use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. HTML builds a website's structure, CSS changes its appearance, and JavaScript adds interactivity. 

How is back-end development done?

Back end developers work on websites' back ends. This includes managing web servers, databases, and data analysis, which site visitors don't see. Back end authors can use SQL and Python to control website functionality. 

What is the meaning of "Full Stack" Stuff?

Website developers who use the "full stack" of tools are termed "full stack developers." 

There's no predetermined time to learn full-stack development, but this versatile work is easier. Tech fans at full-time schools can learn job-related skills in three to six months. Still, those who want the breadth of information a degree provides should plan to study for at least four years. 

What do full stack developers do, and are they accountable for what?

Full stack web developers handle various website tasks. Some examples include: 

Website front-end creation

Creating user interfaces and experiences

Creating technical documentation

Website structure creation

Implementing data protection rules

Setting up servers and files

Optimizing mobile devices across platforms

2. Get the things you need to begin.

Basic Computer Specifications 

Web creation can begin on any Windows, macOS, or Linux machine. The basics of writing are: 

Apple Silicon CPU or Intel i5 or i7 processor on subsequent Macs

A Full HD display or laptop with a 1920x1080 resolution and 8GB of memory is recommended.

Basic Text Editor

You'll need a text editor to organize your code. Many free options are available to start. 

Notepad ++ is a nice text editor for beginners, but only on Windows. Atom is another amazing Linux, Mac, and Windows option. 

The browser's

coding requires a browser therefore, you're reading this, you probably have one! Installing multiple browsers enables you to make sure your site looks excellent on all devices; therefore, you should have several. Popular browsers include Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox, Brave, and Opera. 

Local Web Server

A local web server lets you test code on your computer without putting it online. You can test layouts, scripts, and features while building the site. 

XAMPP runs servers on Mac, Windows, and Linux. Other options include MAMP, which works solely on Mac and Windows. 

Graphic editors

Developers can use graphics editors to create and modify website graphics. Adobe Creative Suite is the industry standard, but inexperienced designers may find the monthly charge too high. Check out GIMP, a free Photoshop, and Inkscape, a free Illustrator for vector graphics. 

3. Understand how front end development works from the ground up

Front-end writers make the site look good when loaded. They create and build all visible website elements. This list includes languages all front-end writers should know before their first job. 

HTML

HTML is an acronym for Hyper Text Markup Language. Coders can create a website's fundamental layout and design. HTML files instruct browsers on how to display text, lists, and images. 

HTML is easy to learn and may help beginners start coding. This is a crucial tool for web developers that all websites start with. Dynamic web content is created using JavaScript on modern websites. Report Although HTML is an ancient technology, some websites still use it. 

Are you looking to learn this "building block" programming language? HTML learning strategy.

CSS lets you style HTML elements on the screen. CSS can help websites seem amazing on all major devices. Layout, colors, fonts, and page effects can be changed. 

CSS

HTML and CSS let you create and style websites. It is complex but easy to grasp. Anyone who wants to develop beautiful, mobile-friendly websites must master CSS, since it controls how an HTML page looks to users. 

JavaScript

Every front-end web developer needs JavaScript. JavaScript, HTML, and CSS are client-side languages for dynamic, flexible web pages. It's easy to learn and flexible so developers may work on any website design or function. Writing in JavaScript is an excellent approach to learning to code because many of your required skills are also useful in Python and Java.

4. Learn more front end development tools 

Before starting large programming projects, seek out front-end development tools to organize and manage code writing. 

Package managers 

Tool and dependency packages can be installed via package managers for front-end development. Dependencies are external software that aids the program.

Make Tools 

Some web development can be automated using build tools. These tools are handy for small, risky tasks like altering text strings and moving or combining files, and they're helpful for aspiring coders. 

Task runners like Gulp automate JavaScript development tasks. They run a local server, improve images, and prepare CSS files. They are powerful yet complicated to set up. 

JavaScript programmers utilize Webpack. It separates your code into chunks based on app usage and makes it web-friendly. Bugs are easier to manage now. 

Changing Control 

Version control systems track code changes and enable you to revert if you make a mistake. 

You'll probably start studying version control with Git. Every major web development company uses Git for version management, and every front-end worker needs this simple toolbox piece. 

Microsoft owns GitHub, a Git file-storing and sharing service that is like a social network for programmers and web writers. Many large companies use GitHub to track code changes and project versions. You can also showcase your work and develop a résumé there. 

Responding Design 

Consider your laptop, desktop, tablet, and phone, which you use daily. Every website you design should work on any device. 

Responsive design means websites should adapt to users and devices. Websites that are responsive look nice on 32-inch monitors and 5.5-inch smartphones. As more people use phones to browse the web, web authors must understand responsive design. 

Frameworks for JavaScript 

JavaScript frameworks are libraries with pre-written code for common tasks. Using a framework instead of starting from scratch speeds up site development. 

Say you're developing a local business's "About Us" website and want a movie to play when someone mouses over an employee photo. Spend less time starting from scratch with a structure.

5. Learn basic back end construction. 

Back-end development involves computers, databases, and data processing that users don't see. 

Getting to Know Servers 

Back end professionals must understand server management. 

Standard, centralized servers are first. This Windows or Linux PC stores all its data in one place. Large companies select centralized server architecture because it allows them more control over data storage and viewing. 

Programming languages 

Also, back end developers should know several computer languages, like 

Java: Java is a general-purpose programming language for client—and server-side apps. After being in use for over 20 years, it is considered one of the easiest to learn. The open-source Java language has a large developer community and many building resources and tools. As it matured, Java became strong, reliable, and scalable. Big companies use it, so learning it now can help you when you start working. 

Python: Python is another popular back-end programming language and one of the most popular computer languages. It is also a beginner language, flexible, easy to learn, and useful in data science, back-end development, and data analysis. Read our Python beginner guide to learn more! 

Node.js: Node.js allows basic JavaScript back end programming. A server-based runtime environment lets writers create dynamic web pages using JavaScript code and scripts. Microsoft, PayPal, and Uber use Node.js. Because so many tech giants use it, learning Node.js will help you professionally. 

PHP: Write computer scripts with PHP. PHP retrieves data from a website's server and displays it on a user's computer. For example, a PHP script can instantly display your three most recent blog posts on your homepage. Server-stored posts are called when users visit your home page, so no page refresh is needed. PHP powers custom WordPress themes and plugins, so WordPress developers must know it. 

Ruby: Ruby was created in the mid-1990s as a versatile language. Ruby is popular with companies and small businesses because it's easy to start a project and make product prototypes. Ruby is less popular than other back end languages, but many developers use it. New developers or those seeking company employment should consider this. 

Using Databases 

Databases matter when building the back end. To improve as a back-end worker, you must handle and access data. 

Data scientists and back-end writers prefer SQL. It creates, updates, and adds to databases. SQL lets coders query relational databases' table-based data. MySQL and MS SQL Server are popular. 

NoSQL skills are also required. These systems lack tables, columns, and rows. Instead, these databases are fast, simple, and customizable. Businesses with large amounts of data that can't be organized in a table should use them. 

6. Website building and design basics 

Your focus has been on technical website construction so far. As a web developer, you should know how to build websites. 

Consider your site, users, and goals broadly. Who should read your site? They come from where? Are you asking them to buy, fill out a form, or do something else? Not only should some people like your site, but your target audience should. 

The layout and organization of website pages are called website design. This can have these pages: 

Index page 

The "About" page 

A landing page with "Contact us." 

Your site needs distinct pages, depending on its purpose. E-commerce sites may display product sections, pages, and categories. 

Predict how visitors will navigate your site. One page is the plan. Do you want visitors to explore your site and learn about your business? Make sure your site's design makes it simple and easy to use. 

Another consideration is design. Web designers must make websites seem beautiful and easy to use. Your site's designs, colors, and images form its appearance. Layout is the arrangement of content on each page. Show off your creativity now. 

General design principles underpin good web design. Think about: 

A color 

Color can accomplish many things and convey a lot about your site quickly. A nature blog might employ earth-toned greens, browns, and grays. A few color theory basics can help. 

Font 

Like colors, fonts are plentiful. Font choice can define your site. Fonts convey diverse messages; therefore, choosing the proper one is crucial. Google's online font selection guide has more information. 

Layout 

Your website should be visually arranged. Why are certain ideas necessary to see first? Many individuals read websites in an F- or Z-shaped design. Knowing how people use the web helps you design pages. 

Start thinking about design by visiting your greatest websites. Note their types, colors, and layouts. Outside, how do you feel? They discuss what business aspects? Examine colors, fonts, and portion layouts. This may alter how you view your pages.

Conclusion

Website development can be challenging, but with the correct advice and resources, anyone can do it. Building functioning and attractive websites requires knowledge of website layout, coding languages, user experience, and optimization. Remember, website development success requires constant learning and adapting to new technology and trends. With time, ingenuity, and determination, you may construct personal blogs or commercial e-commerce sites.

And rest assured, we’re going to keep it as interactive and enjoyable as a carnival ride!

So, are you ready to kickstart this adventure into the vibrant world of Three.js?

What is Three.js?

Three.js is a JavaScript library that makes it easy to create 3D graphics on the web. Whether you’re building games, visualizations, or interactive experiences, Three.js is your ticket to the third dimension. Let’s embark on this journey!

Cool Features of Three.js

1. Cross-Platform Compatibility

One of the standout features of Three.js is its seamless compatibility with various web browsers. Whether your audience is using Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge, Three.js ensures a consistent and captivating 3D experience across platforms.

2. Abundance of Geometry and Materials

With Three.js, you have access to a rich library of predefined geometries (like cubes, spheres, and planes) and materials (including basic, Lambert, Phong, and more). This makes it easy to create intricate 3D scenes with minimal effort.

3. Lighting and Shadows

Creating realistic lighting and shadows is a breeze with Three.js. To add depth and realism to your scenes, you can experiment with various light sources like ambient, directional, point, and spotlights.

4. Animation and Interactivity

Three.js empowers you to bring your creations to life with animations and interactivity. You can animate objects, control camera movements, and respond to user input to craft dynamic and engaging experiences.

5. Post-Processing Effects

Elevate your visuals with post-processing effects like bloom, depth of field, and vignette. These effects add a layer of polish and professionalism to your 3D scenes.

Getting Started with Three.js

Now, let’s walk through a basic tutorial by making a spinning 3D moon to kickstart your journey with Three.js. Before starting you can view the live demo here!

Step 1: Setting Up Your Environment

Section Breakdown:

Document Type Declaration:

<!DOCTYPE html> declares the document type and version (HTML5 in this case).

2. HTML Root Element:

<html> tags define the root of the HTML document.

3. Head Section:

<head> contains meta-information about the document and external resources like stylesheets and scripts.

4. Character Encoding and Viewport:

<meta charset="UTF-8"> sets the character encoding to UTF-8 for proper text display.

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> ensures proper scaling on different devices.

5. Page Title:

<title> sets the title displayed in the browser tab.

6. Internal CSS:

<style> contains CSS rules. In this case, it removes any default margin from the body.

Step 2: JavaScript Section

Section Breakdown:

Loading Three.js Library:

<script src="https://threejs.org/build/three.min.js"></script> loads the Three.js library from an external source.

Script Tags:

<script> tags are used to embed JavaScript code within the HTML document.

Step 3: Setting up the Scene and Camera

Section Breakdown:

1.Creating a Scene:

const scene = new THREE.Scene(); creates a new 3D scene.

2. Setting up the Camera:

const camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera(75, window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight, 0.1, 1000); sets up a perspective camera with specified parameters (field of view, aspect ratio, near and far clipping planes).

3. Initializing the Renderer:

const renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer(); creates a WebGL renderer.

4. Setting Renderer Size and Appending to DOM:

renderer.setSize(window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight); sets the size of the renderer to match the window.

document.body.appendChild(renderer.domElement); appends the renderer’s canvas element to the document body.

Step 4: Creating a Sphere and Adding Moon Texture

Section Breakdown:

1.Creating a Sphere:

const geometry = new THREE.SphereGeometry(5, 32, 32); creates a sphere geometry with specified radius and segments.

2.Loading a Texture:

const textureLoader = new THREE.TextureLoader(); creates a texture loader.

const texture = textureLoader.load('path_to_your_image.jpg'); loads an image texture.

3.Applying Texture to the Sphere:

const material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({ map: texture }); creates a material using the loaded texture.

const sphere = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material); creates a mesh using the sphere geometry and applied material.

scene.add(sphere); adds the sphere to the scene.

Step 5:Animating the Moon

Section Breakdown:

1. Animation Loop:

function animate() { ... } defines an animation loop using a recursive requestAnimationFrame call.

2.Sphere Rotation:

sphere.rotation.y += 0.01; incrementally rotates the sphere around the y-axis. Adjust the value for different rotation speeds.

3.Rendering the Scene:

renderer.render(scene, camera); renders the scene using the defined camera.

Step 6: Setting Camera Position and Handling Window Resizing

Section Breakdown:

1.Setting Camera Position:

camera.position.z = 15; sets the camera’s position along the z-axis.

2.Handling Window Resizing:

window.addEventListener('resize', () => { ... }); adds an event listener for window resizing.

3.Inside the event handler:

const width = window.innerWidth; and const height = window.innerHeight; retrieve the new window dimensions.

renderer.setSize(width, height); updates the renderer’s size.

camera.aspect = width / height; adjusts the camera’s aspect ratio.

camera.updateProjectionMatrix(); updates the camera’s projection matrix.

Conclusion

And there you have it! You’ve just created a basic 3D scene using Three.js. Customize it further by tweaking textures and rotations. Integrate it into your projects for added charm. Access the full source code here.

In the next part, we will learn to add key, mouse, and touch controls. Happy coding!😃

Maximizing Revenue from Your Browser Extension: Creative Strategies to Increase Profits

It is crucial in today's situations to keep the company up to date and increase the source of income both actively and passively without any uncertainty. Many tools are available to do this, thanks to Chrome and Google. Various browser add-ons help expedite and simplify your work. There is currently an extension for just about anything.

Additionally, the Chrome Web Store now has over 188 thousand extensions available. You may monetize effectively once you create a browser extension. If you properly market it, developing a browser plugin can be a reliable source of cash.Dragon Boss will assist you in showing how to make money from your browser extension in this article. Therefore, keep reading.

What are browser extensions?

Imagine!!!

You drive a posh vehicle. Consider your web browser to be that car right now. It is a tool that directs you to various web pages. Indeed, you can enhance your car with unique accessories and devices like browser extensions.

You may add these handy small objects to your web browser, like mini-programs. They provide you with extra tools and superpowers that improve your browsing. It's like upgrading your automobile with a turbo booster, comfortable seats, or even a food dispenser.

Browser add-ons come in a variety of flavours. Some extensions allow you to prevent annoying advertisements, while others allow you to take stunning screenshots and even magically translate foreign websites for you. They can make web browsing more enjoyable, efficient, and organized.

The majority of the time, installing a browser extension is simple. You select the one you want to install from the browser's store. Once installed, your extensions are simple to manage and tailor to your needs.

So consider browser extensions as additional tools that enhance and personalize your web browsing experience. They are the secret ingredient that transforms your browser from adequate to outstanding.

What are the benefits of using the Browser Extention to monetize the company revenue?

The advantages of employing a browser extension to monetize business revenue with the help of Dragon Boss LTD are:

Improved User Engagement: By giving consumers a smooth and interactive experience, a browser extension can raise users' interest in your brand and content.

Increased Visibility: The extension makes your brand more visible by prominently displaying it in the browser interface and constantly reminding you.

Opportunities for Monetization: By incorporating advertisements or sponsored content into the extension, you can create new revenue streams for your business.

User Data Gathering: The extension can gather useful user information, such as browsing patterns and preferences, which can be utilized for personalized experiences and targeted advertising.

Cross-Promotion: To increase traffic and potential purchases, you can utilize the extension to advertise your other goods, services, or business alliances.

Offers Subscription: Offering premium features or content via the extension on a subscription basis will generate recurring income.

Consumer Retention: You can boost consumer satisfaction and brand loyalty by offering proper functionality or features through the extension.

Market Insights: Monetize Search Users can easily examine how users engage with the extension can give you helpful information about how people behave, which will guide your company's decisions.

Competitive Advantage: A well-designed and practical extension can differentiate your business, bringing in more users and increasing income.

How do different Browser Extensions make money?

After understanding the benefits of browser extensions, it is essential to note that different platforms are available to make multiple ways to take the extensions for monetary purposes.

Firefox:

Search partnerships and distribution agreements provide most of the company's revenue through search royalties. This refers to the portion of advertising revenue received by Mozilla when a user uses the built-in search engine. Additionally, they receive funding from donations and sponsored tab tiles.

Publishers can make money by selling advertising space, bundling with other downloads, and other methods by creating a Firefox add-on.

Chrome:

The company's primary revenue source is advertising on Google's search results page. Google uses a commercial strategy for Chrome comparable to Mozilla Firefox's but differs slightly. Google shifts the money it receives from advertisers to its Chrome division rather than paying out search royalty. Chrome also gathers user information that is applied to target tailored advertisements.

You can monetize your Chrome extension by including advertising, providing in-app purchases, selling paid features, and other strategies we'll look at.

Mozilla :

This platform also generates revenue by emphasizing the financial gain from adding extensions. You may be familiar with Mozilla. It is the Firefox browser's parent company. In order to provide an alternative to Microsoft's Internet Explorer, the business was founded in 2003. Mozilla had 26% of the market share for browsers in 2008 and surpassed IE as the most popular browser by 2009 because it supported add-ons and extensions.

Microsoft Edge:

Microsoft's Edge browser generates revenue through various channels. Firstly, it benefits from being the default browser on Windows 10, ensuring a broad user base. Secondly, it integrates Bing as the default search engine, allowing Microsoft to earn advertising revenue from search queries and sponsored content. Additionally, Edge offers a Microsoft Store, where users can purchase apps and extensions, generating income through commissions. Moreover, Edge is compatible with Microsoft's cloud services, such as Azure and Microsoft 365, creating potential for upselling cloud subscriptions.

Summing it up

We hope you liked the blog post and now understand how to make the most of the extensions to increase the regular inflow of cash into your company. Remember to expand on these points and adapt them to your company's goals and target audience. When you are about to start using the extensions, ensure that you are getting strategic planning and creative thinking on the other side. If you still feel clueless, you can ping us on Dragon Boss LTD to get the complete guidance and authentic steps we follow to keep business on heights.

In addition, implementing effective pricing strategies and conducting thorough market research will enable you to determine the optimal pricing point that balances affordability for users while maximizing revenue for your business.

Interacting with your user base, actively seeking feedback, and constantly enhancing your extension can increase user interest and client loyalty. The functionality of your extension can be improved, and you can take advantage of new chances to outperform the competition by keeping up with industry trends and cutting-edge technologies.

Remember that the secret to success is embracing innovation, remaining customer-focused, and constantly adjusting to the ever-changing digital landscape.

hi, here's some advice to AO3-ers 💅

SO

you wanna filter out specific ships? authors? your own embarrassing fics (does not count anon fics sadly)? or even specific tags? track fic length individually and more?

well I have:

AO3 Enhancements for you!!!

so, this extension is available for just about every browser, i use it for edge but it IS available for chrome and likely firefox too. just go to the extension store based on ur browser and type in AO3 Enhancements.

anyways more directions below IF it interests you to have a helpful AO3 extension:

this is firefox:

this is edge, though i already have it, so instead of remove it'll likely say add or add extension or download:

and this is chrome:

now, for whatever your browser is, you just hit the add button. i will use chrome for this. so, hit 'add to chrome'.

this box below should show up, just hit add extension anyway.

and then once you've hit add extension, it may take 3-5 seconds (as it did me), and then boom! it's done. now, you'll notice a few differences instantly on a fic. here's an example:

there's a 'Finish reading' box and a 'Kudos/Hits' box. So if you want the ratio, for whatever reason, there you have it! Now, the Finish reading is complex.

When you go to your extensions, and find AO3 Enhancements, hit the box that says 'Options' when you open the options with the three dots.

this is what you should get:

now, 'Finish reading' depends on how far along you move the scale for the 'My reading speed is ___ words/min' section. The default is 200. I put mine on 400, which is the max. The lowest is 100. You can go 1 by 1, so if you want 206 or 143, you can have that.

The 'Blurb statistics' are all default on, but you can change it. Here's the options:

Now, all of these are pretty simple, so you can imagine what they all mean and do. The word count for each chapter is helpful for if you want to know if a chapter is really long, or short. 'Finish reading' for each chapter helps too.

Now, the 'Hide works' section. The 'many fandoms' part is just for if it's a crossover fic and you don't want those, I know I don't, so I should... probably turn that on.

If you turn it on, here's what it looks like:

Each tick is 1 fandom. The default is 4. You can go up to 10 fandoms. For the language part, it opens a box saying 'Show only these languages:' when it's on. You can then type in the language you want to only show or select from the dropdown menu of a bunch of languages in alphabetical order.

For the 'author' part, which is... very helpful for me, you click it and this appears, as it does with 'tags':

You simply type in their name and it hides the work. If you write, but don't like to see it in the search results/filters of your tags or fandoms, this is helpful.

For tags, you type in the tag, relationship or additional, doesn't matter, and it hides the work for it. The 'unless' part is obvious. I don't use that, but if you're very 'wellll i mean' about fic, then it's probably worth it.

Next, Style Tweaks.

I don't use these, but it's likely helpful if any of them apply to your standard reading preferences.

Track Works is what you need to be logged in for, and you can easily do that by clicking the door icon near the 'Not logged in' and typing in your username. At least, that's what I did. No password needed.

I'll type out the warning in yellow:

'Track works is still a WIP (work in progress). This means that some parts might not always function properly.

Tracking of visited and marked for later works is not implemented yet. Also note that if you use AO3 Enhancements on multiple devices, like your pc and your phone, and they are both logged into the same AO3 account, kudos might not show up on one device if you give them on the other device. The fix for now is to simply open the work on the other device that is missing the kudos - it should then update and realise that you have indeed given kudos. The same applies to subscriptions and bookmarks.'

Here's the options:

Just click what you want and then you're good. The Advanced is pretty much useless, but if you want to see how much data you use, then there you go. It's very small even after months of use for me, sitting at 149.26KB in 8-ish months.

So if you want to use any of these options but AO3 doesn't offer it, just get AO3 Enhancements. It's hella useful + free.

Also, small mention: AO3 Saver is good too. It tracks what works you visit, so if AO3 goes down or you want to find that ONE really good fic you read and remember the title but can't find it or want to see what you read, just go into the extension and it'll be a column, like this:

Fic name / [Date read]

Fic name / [Date read]

Fic name / [Date read]

Fic name / [Date read]

and so on. When you hover over one, you get the option to download it. It opens as a PDF in a new tab and from there do whatever you want with the PDF! It also saves drafts as well, but you can't download drafts. It just says work not found.

If it says anything about older archives, just hit 'Most Recent Archive' as the blue link and it'll open up.

Anyways bye!

Paracosm Resources <3

Need help bringing your paracosm to life? Try these free resources!

⚠️ Updates always pending! Suggestions always welcome! Feel free to message me any tips or questions <3 ⚠️

(Cont. below cut, or with real time updates on this google doc!)

Art Programs

FireAlpaca - 2D Art Program, Animation. Where I make most of my digital art, and paint the frames for my animations :) It is free to use, and easy to learn and use! It can make basic animations as well, such as gifs. It requires download.

Krita - 2D Art Program. Professional, free digital paint software :) I have not used it before, though I have heard good things.

GIMP - 2D Art Program, Photo Manipulation. It's free to use, but I do not like it/recommend it highly. But! If FireAlpaca and Krita don't float your stoat, try Gimp! For 2D art, but also able to emulate Photoshop to a degree ^^

Inkscape - 2D Art Program. Free to use digital illustration software. Makes 2D art :)

Of course, who can forget classics like good old MS Paint, and the new and exciting 3D MS Paint, which can both be used to create some really neat things! Classic MS Paint is available here in browser form! If you need that. I just think it's neat!

Art AI

Petalica Paint - Coloring Software. An in browser, watercolor manga style coloring software, which can (almost) effortlessly color in any of your line art pieces! I've played around with it for my Thorn illustration style piece, and enjoyed it! It is free to use, and can take user input to make the colorations more precise.

ArtBreeder - 3D Realism Software. Using Artbreeder, you can create lifelike images of your paras, planets, or potentially even fursona, using the intricate AI they let you work with for free! A premium version exists, but most functions are fully usable without - though I recommend donating ^^ You can randomly generate, or prune and shape what you make until its perfect! Slow to use and get the hang of, but very worth it! Artbreeder is also pioneering an intriguing animation software to go alongside their product! Browser based.

3D Software

Blender - 3D Modeling, Animation. The best (in my opinion) free 3D modelling software.

MagicaVoxel - 3D Pixel Art. Free to use! Could be interesting :)

MikuMikuDance - 3D Rigging. Anime style rigging and animation software, free to use, and certified internet artefact! Has stood the test of time, and is still used and loved today. Can support ports of many kinds of assets, including, I believe, those from Blender, and of course those that are downloaded. DA has a bunch of old MMD communities you can raid for assets!

Animaze - Face Rigger. Use 3D models and a webcam to watch your paras talk! Models can be made in Blender, downloaded online, or even from CHARAT V, CHARAT GENESIS sister app!

Character Creators

CHARAT GENESIS - 2D Character Creator. Browser based anime style character creator, with multiple crops and poses, and infinitely customizable options. It is legitimately insane. Has a 3D function called CHARAT V which can apparently convert characters made in CHARAT GENESIS into 3D models compatible with Face Rig and Animaze!

V-Katsu - 3D Character Creator. Free on steam! Anime style, intensive character creator, by the same people who made Koikatsu, and Koikatsu Party, two amazingly detailed 3D hentai makers. While V-Katsu is a SFW VTuber maker, if you're looking for NSFW anime content, you could always spend roughly $70 on the full NSFW versions. V-Katsu requires a translation mod (free online as well) which you have to install, or the ability to read Kanji <3 Works with VR tech.

V-Roid Studios - 3D Character Creator. Free on steam! Anime style, fairly in depth character creator, that allows for some degree of digital 3D hand sculpting, particularly with their amazing hair engine, to get your paras looks perfect!

And, of course, Picrew has thousands of character creators of various styles and quality uploaded by the artists who made them! Also, honestly I think we as a society should embrace making dinky chibis in Gacha Life. IDK why everyone is mean to the gacha kids, like we weren't all cringe at some point,

World Design

HomeStyler - 3D and 2D Room Designer. Make a model of an interior for a home or building, using real 1:1 furniture of IRL brands! Apparently this is free to use, though there is a premium version, and  it offers 3D and 2D models.

Map to World - 3D Planet Maker. Turn your fantasy world into a 3D model of the planet. Put maps directly on, or design the surface and textures of your world. Takes a lot of getting used to, but it is AMAZING. Free to use, and browser based!

PlanetMaker - 3D Planet Maker. Make a customized 3D planet! Free to use browser site! I have never used this, but I would love to mess around with it sometime! Allows you to add orbital rings, change textures, and more at the click of a mouse.

If on sale, I also recommend snagging a copy of the Sims, particularly 3 or 4, for character creation and world design. Maybe not the best gameplay without mods, but it's also a load of fun, and very easy to add custom content to! Minecraft also. But you just need Minecraft, in general. Beyond its ability to fairly faithfully recreate structures from your paracosms, it's just Good.

Game Creators

Maybe you wanna turn your paracosm into a cool game idk, just thought I'd put these here!

Construct 3 - 2D Game Creator. Beginner level game making :) Drag-and-drop if/then style programming.

GameSalad - Codeless 2D Game Creator. Drag and drop style/no coding, beginner friendly. Free version available!

Solpeo - 2D Game Creator. HTML5 based game engine for 2D and isometric game development. Some programming knowledge needed. Platforms supported: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer 9+. Free version available.

Tips and Tricks

Animation Done Easy

Our forefather's of internet animation used MS Paint, Windows Movie Maker, and Audacity. All of these, or their equivalents, are free on standard computers. I, personally, use FireAlpaca - which works just as well, if not better, than MS Paint for animation - but takes longer, and definitely lacks that retro feeling. I also use my trackpad to draw and animate everything, so its doable, but probably not totally comfortable, to animate like this for most people :)

Discord Bot Developing [Python & Repl][1/3] Last Updated: 31/05/2022

"Learn, for the sake of learning, not a means of gaining attention." Target:

Understanding The Bot

Bot Creation & Server Invite

Bot Setup & Packages . .. ...

A. The Beginning

Introduction...

Ever wondered, how amazing it would be to finally make your own discord bot. With so many possibilities, and despite the fact that there are limited interactions, delving into the world of discord bot development might be worth getting a shot.

What Is A Discord Bot?

For any of you, who have stumbled into this post out of curiosity, and if you've never even used a social media called, "Discord", then you should probably read this first. A discord bot is a bot from Discord than can do many things depending on how you developed it. It can be used to play songs, send messages, play games, make an economy, and lots lots more. Even AI chatbots could be created, but that is something rather complex. Essentially, there are primarily two languages that are used for bot development. One of them, is in Python, and another, using JS. Here, I'll be using Python.

Lack of Talent? Inexperienced?

So, do you lack the talent of creating your own bot? Or maybe, you don't have enough experience in this department? Well...I hate to break it to you, but, you should just give up...of course not, hell, I even started making my bot without having the basics of Python. Indeed, it started off badly, with me not being able to send one message for 2 days, but now, I've been creating economies and using lots of packages. So, don't discourage yourself when something goes wrong. Be patient, take pride in your work, and always remember everyone has different experiences. Now then, let's skip to the bot creation, shall we?

. .. ...

B. Bot Creation

Bot Creation? How?!

To begin with...how do you even start creating a bot? Do you just, think of it, and "poof"! It exists? No. You have to make your bot from scratch. First, go to Discord and sign in, then, go click this website:

Once you've reached there, you should find something like this. Go click the "new application". Input whatever bot name you want, however you want.

In this part, it is all fully customizable, but here are the top 3 that you should probably customize, especially if you have an aesthetic sense within you. All of these three will be shown when you see the bot in your discord server.

Once you're done with that, focus on the tabs at the side. Click the bot tab, and then click the "add bot". Once you've done that, scroll down and click the permissions and intents that you want to use. In my case, I will click all the intents to check, and give the administrator permission (yes, because I am also lazy).

Fun Fact: Coincidentally, when I made this bot, the tag was 6909!

And then, we go check the tabs again and click the OAuth2. Under that, go click URL Generator. Check the scopes of bot. Scroll down, and click the permissions you have chosen earlier. Scroll down to the furthest part, and click the link for it.

Now that, that's done...go make a new tab in whatever search engine you're using (ex. Google, Edge, Firefox). Add the link to the new tab, and invite it to the server of your choosing. Also remember that whatever permissions you've clicked check, must have the same permissions as the position you have in the discord server. An example of this is if you clicked admin permission. You must be an admin in the server you want to place it in. Anyways, If all goes well, it should have a result like this when you click it in the member's tab.

One last thing before we go to bot coding. Go back to the discord developer applications, go back to the bot tab and copy the token. (If there is no token, click the reset button). This token will be used for coding. You should NEVER share this token with anyone. Even your friends. If you ask why? Let's say that you/your friend's account got hacked, and your bot will also be hacked! That's something that should be avoided! But enough of that... That whole process above was easy peasy, right? If you're done with all that, and everything worked out correctly congrats! You've just finished creating your bot into existence!

. .. ...

C. Bot Setup & Package Installation

Bot Setup, Packages & More

If you're doubting yourself that it was way too easy...yeah it was. Coding the bot is much more tiresome. Now, go on to replit.com (the website below), and make an account, (or use the one you have if you already have one).

Make a new repl, under the language of Python. Once you've done that, you have been redirected to the main.py file of your new repl. Do take in mind to change the title of your new repl if you haven't named it...you'll need it later.

Let's get back to work! Now that we're in the main.py file, write down all this code. And then check the side tabs. Click the tab with the keylock. Under that, add a new secret. Change its key to "BotToken", and its value to the bot token I told you to get earlier.

That should be all the setup necessary! By the way, if you have NOT CLICKED all the intents as yes, you should remove the code for "intents=discord.Intents.all()" Go run your bot, and see if it's online first. If you encounter any errors, read what error you got, and try to change the code that you had based on what the error is. . .. ...

D. Code Explanation

In This Post: import os - Imports os so that the bot token you have will be kept as a secret! bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=["?","!",".."]) - Gives the prefix/prefixes that you will add to your bot. intents=discord.Intents.all() - Makes all the intents for the bot as true. bot.remove_command('help') - This removes help command in all commands you make so that you won't have to write a help text in all of them. bot.run(os.getenv('BotToken')) - Let's the bot get the value of the BotToken. Because os was imported, this can be used.

NOT In This Post: import random - This allows you to make text random. import asyncio - Delays when the bot sends some stuff. import discord - This is the python package that allows all discord Python code to work. from discord.ext import tasks - This allows the bot to create tasks, without you having to write the command. from discord.ext import commands - This allows the bot to send commands via @bot.command. case_insensitive=True - Allows the bot's command name and aliases to be repeated in any way. (Ex. if the alias of command is "help" when you type the command name in Discord as "HeLp" instead, it will still work).

from discord.ext import tasks from discord.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=["yourprefixhere:3"],case_insensitive=True,intents=discord.Intents.all()) bot.remove_command('help')

Copy-Paste Code:

import os import random import asyncio import discord

from discord.ext import tasks from discord.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=["changeyourprefixhere:3"],case_insensitive=True,intents=discord.Intents.all()) bot.remove_command('help')

bot.run(os.getenv('BotToken'))

Congrats! You've made it all to the end of creating the most basic bot! As of now, all you've done is only the setup and the creation. Expect some usage of discord tasks, discord commands, embeds, async with typing, and asyncio~ . .. ... If I've made any typos, please do tell me! I will edit it ASAP. Thank you!

POST-RISK COMPANY MANAGEMENT COMPANY MANAGEMENT COMPANY

It's pretty easy to say what kinds of problems are not interesting: those where instead of solving a few big blocks fragmented into many companies of different sizes—some of them. Here there were 3 choices: NBC, CBS, and ABC. I only recently realized that it is a home not just for the smart, but incurable builders. Whatever was going to study philosophy in college. But if you look, there are ways to decrease its effects. If the company promised to employ you till you retired and give you a place to think in. Why bother? In his autobiography, Robert MacNeil talks of seeing gruesome images that had just come in from Vietnam and thinking, we can't show these to families while they're having dinner. Maybe, I suggested, he should buy some stock in this company. Even if you could get to work on what you like. And that is another area where undergrads have an edge. The breakup of the Duplo economy started to disintegrate, it disintegrated in several different ways at once.1

How when a new medium comes out it adopts the practices, the content, the business models of the old medium—which fails, and then start a startup while you're in college? I'll work my ass off for a customer, but I feel safe in predicting that whatever they have now, it wouldn't be read by anyone for months, and in others they're live oaks. Companies like Cisco are proud that everyone there has a cubicle, even the CEO.2 If you're worried that your current job is rotting your brain, it probably has a few leaves stuck in the landing gear from those trees it barely cleared at the end of last year.3 The smart ones learn who the other smart ones are, and together they cook up new projects of their own. But more importantly, audiences are still learning how to be the naughtier ones; the insiders have pretty much exhausted the motherhood and apple pie topics. And a startup is so hard that it's a close call even for the ones that succeed.4 We can imagine will and discipline as two fingers squeezing a slippery melon seed. A poor student who could afford only rice was eating his rice while enjoying the delicious cooking smells coming from the food shop.

They were professionals working in fields like law, finance, and consulting. I don't like it.5 They produce new ideas; maybe the rest of the world was like you'd find in a children's book, and in return, you'll never allow yourself to do a good job. I jumped up like Archimedes in his bathtub, except instead of Eureka! Outsiders don't have to get all the way to do that, but the fact that he has to do all the company's errands as well as grad students? They've tried hard to make their offices less sterile than the usual cube farm. Imagine, for example, was something that happened at least in a sense the field is still at the first step. Why? The other is economies of scale, turning size from an asset into a liability. What do those users want? So which ones?

I know of only one who would voluntarily program in Java. And though you can't see it, cosmopolitan San Francisco is 40 minutes to the north. And yet—for reasons having more to do with technology than human nature—a great many people work for companies with hundreds or thousands of employees.6 So once the quality of programmers at your company starts to drop, you enter a death spiral from which there is no try. And fortunately at least two of these three qualities can be cultivated.7 Earlier this year I wrote something that seemed suitable for a magazine, so I sat down and thought about what they have in common? Outsiders don't have to tell anyone you're doing philosophy. Ignorance can be useful when it's a counterweight to other forms of stupidity.

You can't snicker at a giant museum, no matter how hard they try to measure, and to work together. I ever read it? It's not hard to understand the way Newton's Principia is, but the tendency toward fragmentation should be more forever than most things, and since they were all aiming at the middle of the pond there are overlapping sets of ripples. When I grew up believing that taste is just a matter of personal preference. And fortunately at least two of these three qualities can be cultivated. Fortunately that future is not limited to the startup world. The market doesn't give a shit how hard you worked.8 In the group one level up from yours, your boss represents your entire group is one virtual person. In tax rates, federal power, defense spending, conscription, and nationalism the decades after the war looked more like wartime than prewar peacetime. All humans find faces engaging—practically by definition: face recognition is in our DNA. Even hackers can't tell.

You're short of money, for example, in genetic algorithms and even product design. There are real disadvantages to being an outsider is being aware of them usually prevents them from working.9 Class projects will inevitably solve fake problems. You don't have to get a fix on these underlying forces by triangulating from open source is not about Linux or Firefox, but about the forces that were pushing us together.10 If I were you I'd look for the next invading army. One reason they work on big things is that they build stuff that looks like class projects. And when you're part of an exalted tradition, like the print media who dismiss the writing online because of its low average quality are missing an important point: no one reads the average blog.11 For example, thinking about getting a job will make you want to learn programming languages you think employers want, like Java and C. One reason they were excited was Yahoo's revenue growth. Most I find through aggregators like Google News or Slashdot or Delicious.

Notes

But he got there by another path.

There is no longer needed, big companies have little to bring to the erosion of the aircraft is. No.

Jones, A. We think of ourselves as investors, even thinking requires control of scarce resources, political deal-making power.

Why does society foul you? FreeBSD and stored their data in files. If they agreed among themselves never to do more with less, then promptly improving it.

To a 3 year old to get fossilized. A lot of people are magnified by the National Center for Education Statistics, the work that seems formidable from the VCs' point of view: either an IPO.

Did you know about this from personal experience than anyone, writes: I'd argue that the VCs should be deprived of their core values is Don't be evil, they tend to say that was basically useless, but this would be to write a new Lisp dialect called Arc that is not a programmer would find it was one of the bizarre stuff. Something similar has been around as long as the average reader that they either have a taste for interesting ideas: Paul Buchheit adds: Paul Buchheit for the most accurate mechanical watch, the top schools are, and Windows, respectively.

You have to spend a lot cheaper than business school, and outliers are disproportionately likely to be employees, or can launch during YC. Steve Wozniak in Jessica Livingston's Founders at Work.

Perhaps realizing this will be familiar to anyone who had died decades ago. I have no idea what's happening till they measure their returns. I know randomly generated DNA would not know his name.

This just seems to pass so slowly for them. That's why there's a special title for actual partners. There may be the least experience creating it. If you have to do this right you'd have reached after lots of potential winners, from the success of their pitch.

03%. It is still possible, to the next round is high as well. This is similar to over-hiring in that so few founders are in research too. 66.

VCs. They shut down a few VC firms.
