It shouldn't be, but it's so hard for graduates to get through the door because every job ad demands experience now. Employers don't want to train or develop talent. The whole thing needs fixing, but it's the tragedy of the commons where most employers just see that they can demand experience and put no resource into training.

They probably think that an ad blocker isn't original enough, because many other browsers have them. Not a unique selling point, and to be fair they are probably right.

Unfortunately there aren't any other good options for running uBO. Brave is shady, nothing else both supports full uBO and a reasonable set of other features. Firefox is the only choice.

Google down-ranks websites that show something different to its crawler and to the user. It's a classic SEO technique that they have been demoting for many years.

Try one of these brushes: https://www.aliexpress.com/ite...

My car isn't all that interested in most toys, but he loves that brush.

It feels like they will try absolutely anything to reverse the falling user numbers, except improving the core browser.

New UI skin, crap on the new tab page, AI... Meanwhile tab management on Android still sucks and there is no passkey/TOTP handling in the password manager. Great job, Mozilla.

The bigger picture here is that students don't view university as an opportunity to learn skills that employers want, but rather as a necessary expense they have to take on to get a job. It's become apparent that working hard is not rewarded anymore, but blagging is.

Interesting but how would it work? Some kind of crypto token?

I've reduced my meat intake anyway. Partly improving my diet, partly I've just gone off it a bit. I prefer smaller, but very well prepared portions.

On the other hand, Trump Always Chickens Out (TACO), so he must care a little bit about it hurting the USA. Or more specifically hurting the voters, who he needs to give him a third term to avoid being held to account for anything.

You are right though, it's best just to ignore him and wait for him to inevitably chicken out. It sucks because it hurts everyone, but there is nothing any of us in the rest of the world can really do about it. Americans can maybe do something in November, but I'm not convinced the elections will be fair, and I'm not convinced that even if the Democrats did win big they would actually do anything meaningful about him.

Tariffs are the largest transfer of wealth in US history. You pay them, then the courts strike them down, and companies collect the refunds. Oh, and the prices aren't going back down to pre-tariff levels either.

Agreed, but the worry is that eventually so many things will require age verification that unless you do it, you will end up excluded from large parts of society or even the economy.

Actually the transition away from cash is another example of people being economically excluded, because they can't get a card for whatever reason (the main one being that they are a child).

Could be important with climate change starting to bite. As well as being better adapted, maybe they could produce some cows that fart less methane out.

Maybe they could even save the incel pandas who can't seem to successfully reproduce.

That's significant, and it's not just the engines. The heat shield tiles, tanks and plumbing, the ship itself, all are receiving changes that are more than small incremental improvements: new insights from test flights are rolled into the design of the next ship. That introduces additional risk on each flight as well. And the risk that the cycle continues like this... letting perfect be the enemy of good enough.

Best to just wipe your phone before you get to the border, and restore from a backup later. Or not take your main phone at all, just a burner with nothing much on it.

Not that I'd recommend going to the US at all these days.

It's very difficult to make it look "normal", because they will look at things like usage logs. If it doesn't show calls that match what your phone provider has, if it doesn't show recent emails matching your Outlook account, and if it doesn't have plausible web browsing and maps navigation from the last few days, they are going to know that something is up.
