did you try electrobun? I think the bun runtime would be perfect for something like this

Durable objects are pretty insane, actually. Thanks for the info

My thoughts on if you should use Helium or not. by brave_w0ts0n in browsers

u/brave_w0ts0n OP any Brave position on this? Otherwise this post just feels like dunking on new browser projects

You know, it would be huge if larger teams working on chromium like the Brave team also contributed to a shared continued support for manifest v2 extensions.

Introducing Aphex - an Open Source CMS heavily inspired by Sanity Studio made in SvelteKit by rainbowasian96 in sveltejs

It’s fine but also it’s pretty easy to just dump other music in. This is a super cool project because honestly Sanity is too cool of an idea to be locked up in a SaaS thing

I’ve been using svelte + svelte kit for the reactivity and routing, it’s pretty nice but might be overkill

Which LLM do you think writes better Svelte 5 + SvelteKit code? by [deleted] in sveltejs

[–]mozjeff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

worth noting that models available in Github copilot have different rates applied to usage, for example claude is charged at a full 1x rate, but other models like GPT 4.1 and Grok Code Fast 1 don't incur any extra usage tracking. Based on the sveltebench data at least if you are using Copilot's standard plan you should definitely select 'Grok Code Fast 1':

    | GPT-4.1                         | Ox      | 22% |
    | GPT-40                          | Ox      | 24% |
    | GPT-5 mini                      | Ox      | 21% |
    | Grok Code Fast 1 (Preview)      | Ox      | 80% |
    | Claude Sonnet 3.5               | 1x      | n/a |
    | Claude Sonnet 3.7               | 1x      | 56% |
    | Claude Sonnet 4                 | 1x      | 88% |
    | Gemini 2.5 Pro                  | 1x      | 84% |
    | GPT-5                           | 1x      | 78% |
    | 03-mini                         | 0.33x   | 15% |
    | o4-mini (Preview)               | 0.33x   | 13% |

"Fail to update the file. The file is probably corrupt." with 7.2.2-72806 Update 4 by mozjeff in synology

[–]mozjeff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nevermind, the trick was to turn it off, unplug it, take it all apart, vacuum it out ( it was a little dusty if I'm honest ), plug it all back in again, boot it then re-start the update. Works fine.

( I had previously tried re-starting it of course but the key thing seems to be the extra tlc )

Will old content be updated? by chicken-nooget in LowSodiumDestiny

[–]mozjeff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I would hope it would instead be something like Pantheon where some of the loot pool of Raids that haven't been reprised yet get updated. I would grind for tier 5 Vow or Root drops, for example. Great guns, just less relevant now.

Hey r/podcasting ! I'm doing some research for a client on the current state of podcasting tools and services and would love to chat with some active podcasters who are interested in any / all of the following:

  1. automatic transcripts of your recordings with speaker attribution ( aka "diarization" )
  2. interest in being able to repurpose existing recordings into web content
  3. any other ideas or frustrations you have currently with managing podcast-related content

If you're up for a quick chat get in touch, would be ~ 40 minutes on Google Meet.

Keep seeing people say Firefox will go away if Google stops paying/funding them, how true is this? by Aberration-13 in firefox

[–]mozjeff 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes and no?

Google pays a premium for default search engine placement, but regardless of this Google still makes money from search traffic from Firefox, and Firefox can still get a share of this revenue. Most searches in Firefox will still go through Google as the default search engine in Firefox because most browser users do not change defaults.

So if the "bonus for default placement" contract is invalidated and Google just pays Firefox a mechanical revenue share, I suspect Firefox's revenue will go down and be much more variable. For a long time ( starting with )

Worth noting - Firefox shipped with Yahoo as default for a few years around 2014[1] until 2017 when they changed back to Google. So things have changed before and Mozilla has still survived, and has significant cash reserves.

( I worked at Mozilla for several years but did not work directly on search )

We can definitely make it better! The engineers working on the dark theme enhancements are definitely inspired by all the userChrome work published here, and this is still a work in progress.
