The Joy of Coding returns today with Episode 421! Come join me while I #livehack on #firefox !

We continue with our search handoff component. Today we're going to try polishing it up and getting it up for review - and then we can start thinking about the component registry on the newtab page.

We're going to continue refactoring the hand-off search mechanism today, and trying to get its rules and behaviours encapsulated within a reusable component. Let's see how far we get!

Bei manch beengter Starterbatterie-Einbausituation ist so eine zusätzliche Krokodilklemmen-Isolation aus alten Fahrradschläuchen, für das Batterieladegerät, echt goldwert.

#Upcycling #DIY #Livehack #Fahrrad

Zwei Krokodilklemmen eines Batterieladegeräts. Über die vorderen blanken Metallteile sind zum Schutz gegen ungewollten Kurzschluss jeweils kurze Stücke von einem alten Fahrradschlauch gezogen.

The Joy of Coding returns today with Episode 414! Come join me while I #livehack on #firefox !

Today, I'm going to try building a new tool that will let us measure our readiness for performing a "newtab train-hop". It involves checking our backwards-compatibility status from CI, localization status, experiment/rollout status, etc.

I'm starting it from scratch! Come join me at 1PM ET:

The Joy of Coding returns today with Episode 413! Come join me while I #livehack on #firefox !

Today I'm going to try to write a utility for generating the various bits and pieces of JSON for deploying an out-of-band newtab update. I might also file a bunch of bugs and write some documentation. Or maybe review some patches! We'll see.

Starts at 1PM ET. All are welcome!

@xameer <3 the main contribution the natural sciences made:
You can say:

"You have a nice theory, but as long as you are not able to show up a way how to falsify it by an experiment ... it has its inner beauty ... but it is completely irrelevant."

P.S. works very well as frontdoor against any kind of conspiracy theory as well ;) #livehack

I'm a bit harried this morning with various meetings and whatnot, so I don't have a whole lot on the agenda - but I'm sure we'll find something to do! At the very least, maybe we can review some code.
