What’s the relationship between Selenium, Puppeteer and Webdriver BiDi? I’m a happy user of Playwright. Is there any reason why I should consider Selenium or Puppeteer?

The README says they’re done with prototyping and are now building the MVP.

The article states the wrong resolution for the Apple display and it’s an interesting mistake because these days there are actually 2 versions of 6K in consumer-marketed computer monitors: the one used by the Apple display (6016x3384) and the slightly larger one used by the Dell U3224KB 6K that came out earlier this year (6144 x 3456). In fact, an interesting thing people found out when they use the Dell 6K display on Intel MacBook Pros running Mac OS between 10.15 and 13.6 is that the Mac cannot do Display Stream Compression at the Dell's native 6144 x 3456, hence the Mac can only drive the monitor at 30hz instead of 60hz. However, if they can fool the Mac into thinking the display is 6016x3384 (same as the Apple display), DSC magically works and they get 60hz on the Dell (at the expense of sacrificing some screen real estate). Apple must probably hardcode the 6016x3384 resolution somewhere in their OS code. Thankfully people report that this problem has been fixed as of Mac OS 14.1 but that bug existed for 4 years.

Edit: this problem only seems to happen on Intel, not Apple silicon machines.

I think the real punishment for Apple is that it’ll be harder for their employees to get their PERMs certified i.e. more likely to be denied/audited (audit adds 5-6 months on top of the normal 10-11 months), which has been the case for Facebook since the same settlement with DOJ.

Hi Peter. 2 questions for you:

1) PERM processing time keeps getting longer and longer (now at 11 months, up from 5-6 months a few years ago). Do you know why or if DOL has any plans to improve it?

2) What’s the current average PERM-based I-485 processing time you’re seeing in your office? Any processing time advantage to submitting I-485 separately versus concurrently with I-140?

Thanks.

I’ve been using the new yarn (with workspaces and Plug’n’Play) on a reasonably complex JS project for about 2 years and I think it works great. Congrats to the yarn team on this big release.

Thanks. I’ll check it out.

I’ve actually tried Paw but I found it tricky because it doesn’t have a quick fuzzy search for existing API requests, which is something I use a lot in Insomnia.

Thanks for the kind words.
