why not? If you don't like it don't click it. Is not that the main purpose of the web that everybody can publish a web site?

Your apps and browser don't trust them. Why should your CLI. It's easy and warranted for Apple and look how much cash and engineers they have.

Apple should publish a hotfix now. Work on a better solution in the long-term. They just don't care about security for developers is my take (it's like a niche group for them?)

Mozilla or not does not matter here.

I'm also very reluctant to switch and will not switch anytime soon. I have small compact tabs which I color code dynamically with iTerm2 and also custom profiles with custom keyboard keys overrides by program and directory. So the "harness" around the terminal is more feature rich with iTerm2.

These kind of features are not available in Ghostty in this form.

And about backups in iTerm2: Just do an export and maybe also a backup of your profiles. So that works.

I also do not care about a "super fast" terminal... my iTerm2 is fast enough for 99% of use cases for me.

it's okay but I wish it would be optional. Why force it on me when I don't want it? E.g. with disk space...

On my short tests: This model is amazing and the speed makes it feel like another sort of AI.

But it's bad at code reviews (maybe it's the harness agy cli?). Could not get it to same quality level on reviews like Opus, GPT 5.6, Grok. Even tried special code review skills but no luck.

This should be standard on ALL Firefox on all systems. Why is not that? Ads are a kind of security threat for a long time.

Brave is doing it, Firefox can do it too. And maybe I can recommend that kind of browser to the average Joe again.

wait for it... I can see a future were every wallet, payment etc. app will block devices which are on custom ROMs and do not pass strong hardware integrity with blessing from Google.

I've read once that there are paid app testing labs which test if an app has root and custom ROM detection and when they don't have that it's a minus point on the report.

Maybe I'm stubborn, but even in the age of AI, I still use multiple git clones/directories of the same project, e.g.:

  ~/dev/projectx
  ~/dev/projectx2
  ~/dev/projectx3
  ~/dev/projectx4
very rarely use more than 4–5 per project. Maybe I'm just avoiding wrapping my head around worktrees and actually trying them out.

Benefits: These clones act as semi-permanent directories:

- Helps with caching for heavy Docker usage (think of repeated parallel unit, e2e tests)

- I've color-coded my terminal tabs for each clone so I can instantly tell where I am at a glance (kinda like tab groups just with colors)

Maybe if for some reason I need double digits clones of a project I will be more forced to use git worktrees because then it will be annoying to remember in which directory a branch clone lives.

I just wonder how they handle full Google's certification for hardware integrity + Google Play Store with GrapheneOS. They contradict on this part on the normal GrapheneOS mod and I don't see a way how they will not on Motorola phones.

Banking apps (e.g. Revolut) block GrapheneOS actively and many other apps too.

But it will be interesting times once they are out!

Do you mind sharing your master's thesis? oO

Would be interesting to read it (and no judgement!)

I use Brave. I want Chromium under the hood.

Firefox on mobile is not good, tried it many times. I also don't trust Firefox Mobile security as much as I trust Brave/Chromium on Android.

In Germany the Dell XPS 13 2026 is 56% more expensive (over 1000 Euros) than the MacBook Neo (below 700). So the claim does not hold World wide, maybe only in US on local prices.
