@Matt_Gerlach Keeping Edge forces you to compete with Safari/Chrome/Firefox. What could those engineers build for Azure or XBOX if you didn’t?

[Shay Colson @shaycolson]

Interesting proposal. Focus is critical. Facebook killing M is in the same vein. What will MSFT do? I fear they will let all three live too long. https://t.co/F8jaStMPHH

This would be a good time for Microsoft to show that it's a new day and kill Cortana, Bing and Edge https://t.co/Ik5OuiXYPI

Good perspective on these - or any other deeply technical - issues. Understanding is hard, and takes work, and it’s okay if it’s not immediate. https://t.co/CzNJfC3ZAa

I have 2 degrees in computer HW. I worked @ Intel on the product security team. I was already familiar w/ #spectre & #meltdown background research. But I still had to re-read the new disclosures multiple times to fully understand it. Don't feel bad if it doesn't make sense yet.

The astonishing rate at which children open - and then immediately discard - Christmas presents.

@belling @BloodworksNW Glad to hear. Would’ve been tempting to be on the inaugural run of the service. Stay grateful.

@andrewfarah @andysparks See - missed a key detail. My b. Trust but verify, Andy.

[Shay Colson @shaycolson]

@andysparks Not exactly recent any more, but @andrewfarah moved his family and his company that direction.

[Shay Colson @shaycolson]

Wow.

[Shay Colson @shaycolson]

@belling Ah - gotcha.

[Shay Colson @shaycolson]

@belling Assume you’ve not seen the “BuiltWith” Chrome extension? Solves this problem nicely.

@annemarie_ny Wait until the people start with the “Don’t Reply All!” emails, replied to all. That or the “Remove me from this list” ones. Hilarious!

[Shay Colson @shaycolson]

@jschmeling Ha - perhaps. Good enough reason as any, these days.

Seen at my local library and offered here without comment - it speaks for itself.

If Leach to Tennessee is true, the new AD at WSU had better give Alex Grinch an offer he can’t refuse to stay as HC. Otherwise, tough sledding ahead.

@JordanDodds @grmeyer @MrMikeSmith @mozilla Not sure - not a feature I used on Chrome, so didn’t need/test it.

[Shay Colson @shaycolson]

@grmeyer @MrMikeSmith @mozilla Hard to tell exactly (uses some handlers) but comparable to Chrome. MemUsage not my main concern, tho.

[Shay Colson @shaycolson]

@grmeyer @MrMikeSmith @mozilla I’ll jump into Terminal and look, but certainly feels like less than Chrome (which was never small and seemed to always grow).

[Shay Colson @shaycolson]

@MrMikeSmith @mozilla LastPass, Pocket, Disconnect all here. Not sure any others I used were worth moving over.

[Shay Colson @shaycolson]

@MrMikeSmith @mozilla Clearly faster. Love the integrated "Reader" view for ad-filled pages. Need to learn new keyboard shortcuts, but unlikely to go back.
