My hope is that something like Servo gets good enough to be included, especially if it's tree-shakable so you can only include a subset of the codebase. I don't know if that's a goal for either projects, but it would be cool - the default webviews can be quite lacking so currently you need to use a restricted set of HTML/CSS/JS to guarantee compatibility.

Ah yeah, missed that 🤦‍♂️

Because this is the internet, I can't tell if the whoosh goes to your downvoters or you. I think you were joking, but that second sentence makes me wonder...

I pay for Nebula - $30 a year which is about £22.50. That won't even cover two months of YouTube Premium (£12 pm), and there's not even the discounted yearly option in the UK.

And "if you're not paying you're the product" is wrong - YouTube/Google would still be datamining my viewing habits to sell to advertisers.

Perhapsburg they are

Only if enough people do it. Then again, loads scrapers outside of AI already pretend to be normal browsers.

The phrasing of "First actual case of bug being found" definitely sounds like it's a reference to an existing term. Nowadays maybe people would say "a literal bug lol".

Edit: to be fair, OP doesn't say that Hopper invented the term

I had a "T-Mobile MDA Vario II" (HTC TyTN 300) which was similar, and also had a collapsible stylus which lived in a little hole on the bottom. It was Windows Mobile, but it was great having the keyboard fully accessible (without that extra bottom bit the G1 had).

It looked like this, just less German:

That's the first Android phone, the HTC Dream (or TMobile G1). I loved this phone, even if it was chronically underpowered.

The term you want is "cross compile". I've developed simple programs for the Pi on Windows and it's simple enough to produce a static binary (using Rust, anyway). When extra dependencies come in it's better to develop on the same OS, but targeting different architectures is the easy bit.

Token-based string distances looks like exactly what I need for my current side project - I'm using Levenshtein but I should be comparing based on words, not characters.

I just need to figure out which (if any) of these does what I need.

Edit: looks like the Python version has that information: https://github.com/life4/textdistance?tab=readme-ov-file#algorithms

How did you find Leptos to work with? I never got further than the tutorial so I have yet to form a real opinion on it.
