  • Was demoing a thing internally, and the higher up asks if the NPC was AI driven.

    It’s all pretty basic behaviour we programmed in, follow but not too close. When I point, go there and wait till I’m done doing my thing. A couple other things.

    But my PM said “no, it’s just got some basic rules”… and I’m like bro, it’s arguably AI. Just say it’s AI.






  • I don’t understand how you don’t notice the difference between how chrome handles dragging tabs and how FF does. And all the people who upvoted you too.

    We must have very different ways of using our computers. I’m regularly dragging a tab out to put it side by side with another window, and it seems like FF tabs are the only thing I drag around that don’t behave as expected. It’s glaringly obvious every time it happens, and it’s minuscule friction points like this that drive me nuts when I run into them repeatedly, day after day, for years.

    Edit: the behaviour with FF is, you drag the tab out of the original FF window, release your mouse. A new window is created, then you can drag that window around place it as usual.


  • I looked into it further at one point, there’s some other change that needs to happen before that feature can me implemented. The issue was documented over a decade ago… but I’d have to learn a ton about how FF works to even start to understand how to make the changes needed.

    I can say that for now, the logic is pretty basic, hide the tab, attach a little screenshot of the tab to the cursor, create a window with the content of that tab if the mouse is released outside of the browser window.

    Maybe I’ll dig into the code again at some point

    I live in a mid rise apartment with big beautiful windows, and light mode is easier to read in a bright ass room. And I don’t need to deprive myself of sunlight be working in a pitch black basement office, I’m depressed enough as it is.

    Just explaining my situation, in a mid-lit room I could go either way. Dark room -> dark mode
