Testing Firefox Extensions with Playwright: End-to-End Testing Guide Extension testing is one of those things everyone knows they should do but few actually do. I've been using Playwright for end-to-end tests on the Weather & Clock Dashboard extension and it's changed how I think about extension quality. Unit tests don't cover the biggest failure modes: Does the extension actually load in Firefo
If you've tried to follow any AI coding discussion in the last six months, you've probably felt like everyone suddenly started speaking a dialect you never signed up to learn. "Vibe coding." "Agentic workflows." "Context windows." "Prompt engineering." The jargon is multiplying faster than JavaScript frameworks, and that's saying something.

Then /compact fired at 18% text context. Then I
GitHub Copilot just got a lot more complicated — and not in a good way. If you tried to sign up for Copilot Pro recently and hit a wall, that's not a bug. GitHub quietly paused new sign-ups for Copilot Pro, Pro+, and Student plans starting in late April 2026. No end date announced. No workaround offered. Just a message and a door that won't open. That alone would be worth covering. But they made t
Anthropic now ships at least three different memory models inside the Claude product family, and they don't behave the same way. Claude.ai has a chat memory feature for Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise users that summarizes prior conversations and injects that summary into new chats. Claude Code has CLAUDE.md files plus a separate "auto memory" directory the model writes to itself, both loaded at se
