Allow blob:// videos to be saved normally. It’s just a file. I’m looking at it. Move it from memory to the hard drive.

True. Although in many cases this is indicative of a stream (not really a traditional file for the browser), but at the very least, even in the (rare?) cases that there isn't cached content already, it should theoretically be possible to start saving the video the moment you press on the save button...

Already the "picture-in-picture" mode Firefox offers is a step in the right direction, imho. It allows the browser to take over control of the playback, which is something some places try to forbid.

All you need is the promptbar. No need to waste resources rendering a bloated page. Have the AI summarize the contents in one sentence and then speak it out loud so I don't have to read.

What'd be the result for IsEven(1)?

I mean, isn't that what "get on or get left behind" means?

It does not necessarily mean you'll lose your job. Nor does "get on" mean you have to become a specialist on it.

The post picks specifically on things that didn't catch on (or that only catched on for a period of time but were eventually superseeded), but does not apply it to other successful technologies.

Since the day community tags were introduced on Steam I have been systematically adding tags like FOSS / Open Source / etc. to the FOSS games hoping to one day see one of them actually work as filter tags on the store, yet they never ever did. And yet tags like "Snooker" with only 11 games can be used as filter...

At this point I'm almost convinced that Valve has purposely blocklisted those terms from the allowed tags (it's known that they do have a blocklist). So I've resigned myself to depend on the curator system, to find which FOSS games are on Steam from within the store page: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/38475471-Libre-Open-Source-Games (and they are more than 11...)
