Because politicians are loyal to mega corps.
This isn’t accurate. The issue is that part of that open source software is using non-open source APIs which are paid for by the WordPress Foundation. Making money off open source software is harmless and AFAIK he has no issues with that. However, using an enormous amount of resources where your foundation needs to pay $$$$$ for without contributing anything is what this is about.
The same issue is with Linux, for example. The OS is open source, but the repositories are hosted be e.g. Canonical, which needs to pay to maintain them and for the enormous amount of bandwidth and usage from people updating their packages. That isn’t free.
It’s very common for companies which fork Ubuntu / Debian to contribute back in some meaningful way, whether that’s source code or donations.
WP Engine doesn’t contribute anything.
The search engine magic isn’t just about caching pages. It’s also extremely expensive / complex to:
- maintain an index of all the websites in the world. This is an extremely high cost
- refresh that index in almost real time. How long will your self hosted crawler take to find new content for every website in the world?
- there’s also the algorithm for weighing results. The order of results and their relevance is not easy at all. How many times a word appears on a page is a terrible metric.
A hosted search is also a lot more environmentally friendly - that gigantic search index and all the energy poured into the work is something that can be shared by everyone. If everyone did that themselves at home, you spend that same amount of energy for every single household.
It could have been USB 4 Spec 2.0, couldn’t it?

And you won’t get good search results in exchange.
This x100. Obviously anyone who has fun using well crafted tools to explore a vast frontier of information is a shill. /s
No, that isn’t how it works by any stretch of the imagination. Kagi has its own search index.
Kagi is pretty awesome
Banks don’t take this into consideration when assessing collateral?
Lol, who downvotes a question?
Sure, I didn’t say they use the system browser - I said the opposite. I’m saying the OS should be able to block non-HTTPS connections. If you have control of the OS you can control what protocols are used by apps, unless I’m missing something.
What cases are there for non-HTTPS? I can’t think of any. It’s 2024. All communication should be encrypted.
We need a switch like Firefox has that disallows anything non-HTTPS, but from the phone level. Companies like Apple and Google could also eventually warn apps that they’re going to make it the default setting.
How is DPI a problem if it’s encrypted? That would only work if the attacker had installed their CA cert on your client machine, right?
Is there anything it provided you so far that was better than the guidance from the Rust compiler errors themselves? Every error ends with “run this command for a tutorial on why this error happened and how to fix it” type of info. A lot of times the error will directly tell you how to fix it too.
I like Kagi a lot. It has a Small Web feature that is results from smaller sites like the good old days. Also has a Fediverse filter.
Yep, I had said
Just saying it’s sad that FF mobile on Android is basically the only time it doesn’t work.
