The problem is not ownership. It's dev force. We're not bad here in europe, not bad at all.

Do you make your own chips that are competitive with anyone? All the chip makers are american and Chinese.

Love him or hate him, Trump's tsmc deals mean America can design and manufacture chips in some quantity

Firefox has no PWA installation hook. Please focus on what matters...

Also in Europe, an old state company called Renault is beating Tesla with the R5.

I just saw an R5 on the street in the bright green. Super cool looking car. There are a whole bunch of promising small EVs coming out in the EU. Hyundai Inster, VW ID.1, Kia EV2, etc.

Took one for a test drive - it was fun. The only downside is compared to some other compact/city EV's the legroom in the back is REALLY bad (and I'm not exactly tall).

The legroom in my son's VW e-Up! is markedly better, despite it being a smaller car.

And it's not even cheap (actually its success kind of baffles me but great I guess).

Wasn’t Renault an F1 competitor for many years?

3rd place for most F1 wins as a car motor builder.

It still is, albeit they use the Alpine branding.

And not developing their own motor since this year :(

It was but I'm not sure how that's relevant.

Also not sure what the point of the "old state" part of the parent comment was. Renault is just another big carmaker.

It has been listed in the stock market since 1996, the French state owns 15% now (and so does Nissan).

And the point is?

That, like you, I have no idea what was the point of referring to Renault as an "old state company".

Any French company can use its SIRET (an id that all companies have) to create a ProConnect account that gives access to Visio (meet).

Thank you.

Mosacloud let me down on a document I wrote there. I now get a 404 not found.

I use https://federated.nexus now.

I'm building PMTiles through Tilemaker, PMTiles is incredible, but sadly it will take a lot of work to produce MLT though Tilemaker :/

Unfortunately, Tilemaker hasn't planned or cannot plan to support MLT in the medium-term.

That will leave a significant part of the community out of this transition.

See this interesting (and quite heated) discussion : https://github.com/systemed/tilemaker/issues/856

You can always convert after the fact. Just go from MVT to MLT. There's a Java based program in the repo.

How much times would it take ? Generating the planet with Tilemaker takes 2 hours on an enormous 350 Go RAM server.

For me, Turbopack resulted in faster builds but also non-recoverable errors on syntax errors.

interesting. we had some reports like this of 'stuck errors' when filesystem caching was still very experimental, or back before we achieved 'stable' status. What version was this on?

I'm building a place review system.

The EU should find a way to fund Firefox or another independant browser.

Independant from Safari's and Chrome's engines.

There has been some EU funding for Servo:

- The Sovereign Tech Agency (a branch of the German government) is funding Igalia ~€500,000 over two years to work on Servo (https://www.sovereign.tech/tech/servo).

- And there have been several NLnet grants (that are worth up to €50,000 each) to individuals working on Servo (NLnet gets there money from the EU).

Those aren't huge sums in the context of browser development, but they're not nothing either.
