The main blocker I have for moving is the poor session management. On X11 for decades I've been able to log out of my KDE session and when I log in again, all my Konsole windows re-open with the tabs open in the same folders, Dolphin opens with all the tabs open to the same locations etc.

I think they recently added support at the KWin level for reopening windows to the right desktops etc but as far as each individual apps, it seems to be up to them individually to get this working again. I would have thought that at least for the KDE apps, they could just have a compatibility layer from the X11 session management to make it work but it doesn't seem there yet.

I just had to stop reading for this reason.

The problem is that everyone dies some day so there's never going to be equality between causes of death and reporting rates. You might expect some correlation between preventable causes and reporting, and in-part that's what's being seen here.

It bothers me that it's not even a "AI web browser", but an "AI browser". I don't want to browse "AI", I want access to the web.

https://peps.python.org/pep-0723/, e.g.:

  # /// script
  # requires-python = ">=3.11"
  # dependencies = [
  #   "requests<3",
  #   "rich",
  # ]
  # ///
  
  import requests
  from rich.pretty import pprint
  
  resp = requests.get("https://peps.python.org/api/peps.json")
  data = resp.json()
  pprint([(k, v["title"]) for k, v in data.items()][:10])

https://www.theverge.com/tech/814928/ikea-matter-thread-diri... has some quotes from IKEA saying that they're using Thread. It's strange they didn't say in this release though.

Why are the table and the description of the RAPTOR algorithm in the article images rather than text?

I'd also argue that VS Code is not open source - at least not the version that 98% of people run. If you download VS Code from almost anywhere (and are not using Codium) then you are subject to the licence terms at https://code.visualstudio.com/license which says you may not:

- reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the software, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code for the software except and solely to the extent required by third party licensing terms governing use of certain open source components that may be included in the software;

- remove, minimize, block or modify any notices of Microsoft or its suppliers in the software;

- use the software in any way that is against the law;

- share, publish, rent or lease the software, or provide the software as a stand-alone offering for others to use.

KDevelop's semantic highlighting where each variable was given its own colour was always the one I found most useful. It made tracking the meaning of some code much easier than just highlighting by token category.
