My ideas:
- Peer to peer sync, no server required.
- A small one-binary component you could run on your own server or as a service and pair with your "account" to make it work without another browser peer online.
- Take the ideas from container tabs and use that to create personal contexts within which to sync. Basically: sub-accounts, where you can select what's inherited from global settings and when. (tough to design good UI for. this is the most ambitious idea.)

Anyone who uses Firefox nowadays does so as an act of rebellion against the Evil Corp, meaning they usually know what they're doing and why. However, Firefox is heading in a different direction and isn't listening to its user community.

A little work done on my web browser. I'm working on bookmarks, and instead of storing them in a text file like I originally planned I'm going to try out storing them in an sqlite database.

My Linear Algebra course is forcing us to use MATLAB (why not GNU Octave, or NumPy?) and things seemed to be going fine until it came time to export the file to pdf. Press the button, nothing. NADA. I figured it's something to do with Sunstone not bei…
