A low-dose statin was found to be more effective at reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) than 6 commonly used dietary supplements marketed for cholesterol health, according to research presented at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2022.
Low-Dose Statin Clinical Trial
The single-center, prospective, randomized, single-blind SPORT study (Supplements, Placebo, or Rosuvastatin; ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04846231) included 199 adults between 40 to 75 years of age with no personal history of cardiovascular disease, an LDL-C between 70mg/dL and 189mg/dL, and a 5-20% risk of developing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease within 10 years.
Patients were randomly assigned to receive either rosuvastatin 5mg daily, placebo, fish oil (Nature Made® fish oil 2400mg), cinnamon (Nutriflair™ brand cinnamon 2400mg), garlic (Garlique™ brand garlic with 5000mcg of allicin), turmeric (BioSchwartz brand turmeric curcumin with bioperine 4500mg), plant sterols (Nature Made® CholestOff Plus™ with 1600mg of plant sterols), or red yeast rice (Arazo Nutrition brand of red yeast rice 2400mg). The primary endpoint was the percent change in LDL-C from baseline for rosuvastatin compared with placebo and each supplement after 28 days.
Results showed an average LDL-C reduction of 37.9% in the statin group, while those in the dietary supplement groups saw LDL-C changes comparable to those in the placebo group. Patients treated with rosuvastatin also had an average reduction in total cholesterol of 24% and a decrease in triglycerides of 19%. Compared with placebo, there were no differences observed in either total cholesterol or triglycerides for any of the supplements.
Findings also showed that plant sterols lowered high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and garlic increased LDL-C when compared with placebo. No significant change in HDL-C was observed with rosuvastatin. During the 28 days, none of the study interventions were reported to have a notable impact on inflammatory markers, as measured by the percent change in high sensitivity C reactive protein.
"Although there are prior studies demonstrating that red yeast rice and plant sterol supplements may reduce LDL cholesterol, the findings of our study underscore that the contents of these dietary supplements may vary. Therefore, they do not produce consistent reductions in cholesterol," said study author Luke J. Laffin, MD, co-director of the Center for Blood Pressure Disorders at the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio. "This study sends an important public health message that dietary supplements commonly taken for 'cholesterol health' or 'heart health' are unlikely to offer meaningful impact on cholesterol levels."

Q: Breaking down list of list into dictionaries I have a list of list, s,  that is the result of querying a database on Fruit, item[0] is the name of the fruit, item[1] is the whether or not the fruit has seeds, and item[2] is whether or not it's edible.
s = [['Apple','Yes','Edible'], ['Watermellon','Yes','Yes']]

As my actual list is much bigger, I would like a really easy way to reference/return these values. For example, print my_dict['Apple']['Seeds'] would yield Yes
I think my best option would be to create a dictionary, but am looking for recommendations on if this is a good method and how to do this.
I started writing some code but am not sure how to get the second set of headers in place, so my example uses an index instead.
my_dict =  {t[0]:t[1:] for t in s}

print my_dict['Apple'][0]

A: fruit_map = {
    fruit: {'Seeds': seeds, 'Edible': edible} for fruit, seeds, edible in s}

A: If the second set of keys never changes, it would be better to define a proper object with fields. This might seem overkill or to verbose, but there is always collections.namedtuple to help.
namedtuple creates a new class from a list of field names. That class also supports being initialized by a list. To use your example:
import collections

Fruit = collections.namedtuple('Fruit', ['name', 'seeds', 'edible'])

This way, you can easily create Fruit objects from a list:
f = Fruit('Apple', True, False)
# Or, if you already have a list with the values
params = ['Apple', True, False]
f = Fruit(*params)

print f.seed

So you can create a list of fruits in a very easy way:
s = [['Apple','Yes','Edible'], ['Watermellon','Yes','Yes']]

fruits = [Fruit(*l) for l in s]

You really need to have a dictionary indexed by a certain field, it is not much different:
s = [['Apple','Yes','Edible'], ['Watermellon','Yes','Yes']]

fruit_dict = {l[0]: Fruit(*l) for l in s}
print(fruit_dict['Apple'].seeds)

namedtuples can be very convenient when transforming lists of values into more easy to use objects (such as when reading a CSV file, which is a case very similar to what you are asking).

A: import copy

def list_to_dict(lst):
    local = copy.copy(lst) # copied lst to local
    fruit = [i.pop(0) for i in local] # get fruit names

    result = {}
    for i in range(len(local)):
        result[fruit[i]] = local[i]
    return result

This returns the dictionary you want.

Q: What's the Relation between Potential of mechanics and electricity? As we know that for a conservative force field, there is associated a Potential with the force.
But we know there is a potential in electricity (That's voltage).
My question is that is there any relation between this potential with the 'potential' associated with conservative force?
Is yes? How and where is the conservative force in electricity?
If no? Why then we term it as potential?
I'm sorry if my question is too silly. :P

A: The electrostatic potential is a potential just like any other mechanical potential. Since the force on a particle with charge $q$ is $\vec F_\text{stat} = q\vec E$, the potential $\phi'$ that gives the force as $\vec F_\text{stat} = - \vec \nabla \phi'$ is just the electrostatic potential (the "voltage") times $-q$. The electrostatic force is a perfectly ordinary conservative force.
If you have currents, however, the full electromagentic force is not conservative in the classical mechanical sense. It has a generalized kind of potential, though, which is the four-potential of electrodynamics.

Who's Got Discretion? We Got Discretion! How Much Discretion? Too Much Discretion!
November 14, 2005 / Robert Lincoln
The Florida Supreme Court issued an opinion regarding when a "delegation" of powers goes too far that all land use practioners should be aware of.
In Fla. Dep't of State, Div. of Elections v. Martin, here's the link, the court upheld a First District ruling that "section 101.253(2) is an unconstitutional violation of the separation of powers under article II, section 3 because the Legislature has impermissibly delegated to the executive branch absolute, unfettered discretion to determine whether to grant or deny a candidate's request to withdraw after the forty-second day before an election."
The statute stated that "The Department of State may in its discretion allow such a candidate to withdraw after the 42nd day before an election upon receipt of a written notice, sworn to under oath, that the candidate will not accept the nomination or office for which he or she qualified." The court held that this did not provided adequate guidelines.
This opinion, along with the Florida Supreme Court's decision in the Schiavo case (yes, it turned on improper delegation as much as or more than privacy), reiterates Florida's strong policy agains the delegation of essentially legislative authority to the executive.
The policy behind this is longstanding:
This Court has traditionally applied a "strict separation of powers
doctrine," State v. Cotton, 769 So. 2d 345, 353 (Fla. 2000), which "encompasses
two fundamental prohibitions." Chiles v. Children A, B, C, D, E, & F, 589
So. 2d 260, 264 (Fla. 1991). "The first is that no branch may encroach upon the
powers of another. The second is that no branch may delegate to another branch
its constitutionally assigned power." Id. (citation omitted). In Bush v.
Schiavo, 885 So. 2d 321 (Fla. 2004), cert. denied, 125 S. Ct. 1086 (2005), we
recently addressed this second prohibition and explained:
The Legislature is permitted to transfer subordinate functions "to permit administration of legislative policy by an agency with the expertise and
flexibility to deal with complex and fluid conditions." Microtel, Inc. v.
Fla. Public Serv. Comm'n, 464 So. 2d 1189, 1191 (Fla. 1985). However,
under article II, section 3 of the constitution the Legislature "may not delegate the power to enact a law or the right to exercise unrestricted discretion in applying the law." Sims v. State, 754 So. 2d 657, 668 (Fla. 2000). This prohibition, known as the nondelegation doctrine, requires that "fundamental and primary policy decisions . . . be made by members of the legislature who are elected to perform those tasks, and [that the] administration of legislative programs must be pursuant to some minimal standards and guidelines ascertainable by reference to the enactment establishing the program." Askew v. Cross Key Waterways, 372 So. 2d 913, 925 (Fla. 1978); see also Avatar Dev. Corp. v. State; 723 So. 2d 199, 202 (Fla. 1998) (citing Askew with approval).
In other words, statutes granting power to the executive branch "must clearly announce adequate standards to guide . . . in the execution of the powers delegated. The statute must so clearly define the power delegated that the [executive] is precluded from acting through whim, showing favoritism, or exercising unbridled discretion." Lewis v. Bank of Pasco County, 346 So. 2d 53, 55-56 (Fla. 1976). Id. at 332 (alterations in original).
The requirement that the Legislature delineate adequate standards enables courts to perform their constitutional duties. The failure to set forth adequate standards precludes a court from determining whether the executive branch is acting in accord with the Legislature's intent. See Askew, 372 So. 2d at 918-19 ("When legislation is so lacking in guidelines that neither the agency nor the courts can determine whether the agency is carrying out the intent of the legislature in its conduct, then, in fact, the agency becomes the lawgiver rather than the administrator of the law.").
In Martin, the issue was that the statute clearly stated that the decision was completely discretionary with the Secretary. In Schiavo, the issue was that the statute did not provide standards to guide the governor in when not to grant a stay, or when to lift one.
In the local government context, the seperation of powers does not constrain a Board in its legislative capacity from delegating itself or its agencies administrative powers. (there's a big section on this in my 1996 article in Stetson Law Review). However, nothing in a local government's home rule powers gives local government bodies sitting in their legislative role the delegated authority to "redelegate" their legislative authority to administrative actors. So, ultimately, the same seperation of powers analysis that applies at the state level should apply at the local level; the difference is that at the state level the prohibition against delegation stems from article II, section 3 of the Florida Constitution, and at the local level, it violates the basic premise that local government have no powers that are not granted to them by the Constitution or laws of the state.
This is interesting, because the standards for "improper delegation of legislative authority to the executive" seem to me to be somewhat more stringent than the traditional tests for an improperly vague ordinance or statute that violates substantive due process. More on that another time.

You are here:Home » Blog » How Does the Adoption Process Work?
Adoption refers to taking the responsibility of a child for a lifetime. It requires preparation along with dedication. Most of the time, adoption turns out to be in favor of the adopted child. However, problems may arise like adjustment issues, interaction with new parents, exposure to a different and unaccustomed way of living, and sometimes even different ethnicities or culture.
To adopt a child, the adoption process and challenges must be known. Adoption preparation programs are held at different adoption agencies, hospitals, colleges, religious groups and various organizations. Getting advice from friends or relatives who have adopted children before can also prove to be helpful.
There are several types of adoptions, each of which has a different set of rules and regulations. Foreign adoption, for example, depends upon the country of origin and the position of the child. Adoption within the United States can be domestic (with the help of an agency), independent (without the help of an agency) or through a foster care system. All these types of adoptions have different advantages and disadvantages.
Adoption from overseas can be expensive as well as lengthy. The country of origin of the child affects the process of adoption. If the country of the child is a part of Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Cooperation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption, "Hague process" will have to be followed. This process requires you to find an adoption provider in the country of your choice through USCIS. You will have to approve yourself eligible for adopting a child. Get the child you want to adopt, complete all the paperwork and then get your adopted child legally recognized through immigration.
If the home country of the child is not among Hague countries, "orphan process" will be followed. You will have to prove that the child you want to adopt does not have a family or his parents cannot provide for him. Investigation will be carried out by USICS regarding the child's orphan status after which the adoption will continue.
This type refers to the process of adoption through an adoption agency working within the United States. Adoption agencies match the parents with children. This process of matching can be long and the parents may have to encounter a number of difficulties. The process is also legally complex. In case the child is being adopted from another state, an Interstate Compact for the Placement of Children (ICPC) paperwork will have to be filled out.
This process refers to adoption that is carried out in the absence of an intermediary adoption agency. The adoption is discussed between the adoptive parents and the person who has the child. An adoption attorney is always there to lead both the parties towards the completion of the adoption and also makes sure that the process is carried out legally.
In order to adopt from a foster home, you will have to apply to a local adoption agency having a focus on foster adoption. The parents will receive training for adoption. They will be matched to different children to find out their compatibility. The local state authorities monitor the whole process closely. One of the advantages of adopting a child from foster homes is that it is often free of cost. Besides, the child will receive funding every month in order to help the adoptive family.
To adopt from a foster home, it is not necessary for the adoptive parents to be of certain sexuality, married or have a house of their own. For more information on how adoption works, contact a family law attorney in your area.

Doyle Haunts The "Valley Of Shadows"
by Shawn Loeffler
Holy shit! This is exciting and awesome. Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein, former Misfits guitarist, is getting ready to drop his debut album on July 30th (digital only). Part of the buzz machine leading up to the release of Abominator is the release of the album's first single, "Valley of Shadows." It's got some wicked riffs, but they're by far not the best on the album.
You can get a teaser of the album at Doyle's official website. "Valley of Shadows" is available for download at iTunes.
The second component of that buzz machine is to go on tour with Danzig. Doyle and Danzig already appeared together at Hellfest 2013, and they're set for the Mayhem Fest in the U.S.
A quick look at Abominator's track list (below) will tell you that there's clearly a horror/macabre theme. What it won't tell you is that there's a sick and twisted love story contained within the lyrics.
Critics are calling Abominator "perhaps the best Misfits-related record in over a decade." The album features Alex Story (Cancerslug) on vocals, "Left-Hand" Graham on bass, and Dr. Chud (Misfits) on drums. The songs tell stories of murder, disembowelment, and necrophilia, and Doyle continues to take the horror metal genre to new levels with his combination of epic guitar playing and memorable melodies.
From what I've heard everything about Abominator, from the wicked riffs to the perfect vocals to the horrific lyrics to the driving rhythm, is perfect and addictive.
Abominator is expected to be released on CD and vinyl later this summer.
Abominator track list:
01. Abominator
02. Learn To Bleed
03. Dreamingdeadgirls
04. Headhunter
05. Valley Of Shadows
06. Land Of The Dead

It's when you get your first real glimpse of your baby's personality as they start to shake of their newborn newness. It's all so wonderful that I almost don't mind that my hair has started falling out by the handful. At the very end of this month, Thomas started sucking on his fingers and waving at the toys on his bouncy seat. He's laughing now. It's like he got a software upgrade and version 2.0 includes chubby thighs.
I used that joke, the software upgrade one, in Mary Virginia's three-month update. I re-used it because I think it's a good joke and, well, third kid.
Thomas is huge. He's chubby and long and everyone always thinks he's older than he really is, despite his sub-par head control. His 3-6 month clothes are getting snug, and he weighs over 15 pounds. If he continues gaining weight at this rate, he'll weigh 300 pounds by the time he's 10 years old.
Thomas eats every 2-3 hours, and usually wakes up to eat twice at night and goes right back to sleep. Though, he's starting to show signs of sleeping better. He usually takes a morning nap, and then a few catnaps in the afternoon. His naps are getting shorter and more precarious.
He's starting, slowly to settle into a little routine. Or maybe he would if I wasn't always toting him to the park or Starbucks or playdates. He seems to prefer days when we stay home, but he's remarkably flexible on days we go out.
I have to tell you about this one thing Thomas does.
I've read several books about baby sleep patterns, and every single one says you should put babies to bed sleepy, but awake. That way they'll learn to fall asleep on their own instead of relying on bad sleep habits.I've never seen a baby fall asleep on its own, so I've always assumed that part of the books was fiction.
Then one night Thomas was fussing and I couldn't get him to stop, so I ignored every one of my instincts and put him down. Five minutes later he was asleep. And then my head exploded, which woke him up.
Every night I nurse Thomas, swaddle him, and put him in his crib, awake. He coos and looks around, then falls asleep on his own.
Now that I have a baby who goes to sleep without help from me, whenever I hear moms say they nurse their babies to sleep, or rock them, or drive them around until they fall asleep in their carseats, I roll my eyes in complete judgement because it's SO EASY!
Thomas is a sweet baby. He is smiley, loves to be held and is content to rest in his swing.
Maybe content is the wrong word. "Content" meaning, I worry he thinks the swing is his mother. Because that's where I put him when I need two hands.
Sometimes when I put him in his swing and he catches a glimpse of the mobile, he gives it the same open-mouthed smile he gives me, and a huge wave of guilt washes over me.
And then David piles scrambled eggs on the living room floor because he's worried that cat hasn't had breakfast. And then Mary Virginia steps in the scrambled eggs and all that guilt evaporates because MAMA'S GOTTA MOVE!!!
We moved Thomas to his room this month. No big deal, right? This is my third baby. I'm a seasoned pro, hardened by four solid years of sleep deprivation and finding half-eaten apples under my couch.
I swaddled Thomas, put him to bed, then I laid awake for over an hour and fought the urge to go climb in his crib where I was sure he was writing country songs about his absent mother who abandoned him twenty feet and two doors away.
Even though you're my third baby, you're still my baby. You have a life ahead of you of hand-me-downs and being called "David's little brother" at school, but you're unique; uniquely created and uniquely loved.
This is only your third update, but a theme is already emerging: I'm sorry I'm so busy; I'm not going to love you perfectly, but I do love you.
When David was born I was 100% disillusioned about my ability to be a mother, and struggled through months of realizing I'd never be the mom I thought I would be. When Mary Virginia was born, I struggled through months of guilt for ignoring one child to take care of the needs of the other.
And now you are here, and I already know exactly what you've been born into. You have a mom who cannot love you perfectly, siblings who are growing and learning along side you. On my bad days, I feel guilty. On my good days, I pray that you'll feel the imperfection of your parents and you'll look to Jesus and you'll know that He loves you completely. He will never be to busy, too tired or too impatient.
One of the last things I do every night is check on my babies. I look at you, sleeping, and am filled with overwhelming love for you, and then I go to sleep. God never sleeps. He's always watching, loving, caring. Look to him, baby Thomas. My prayer is that that will be your theme; look to Jesus.
Just priceless. And a beautiful baby, too. Eggs on the living room floor sounds like my friend's daughter sitting with a dozen cracked eggs around her!
Ah, happy 3 month Birthday little man! Such gorgeous photos!

Q: What java framework is easiest to use with embedded Jetty web server? I want to create java application with embedded web server (Jetty, are there any other servers which I can use for that?) and database (H2). GUI of application will be accessible through web browser.
I can choose any framework which will allow me to create RCP application easy and work flawlessly witch my server. Also good behavior of hot swapping is important. Is JRebel needed at all with embedded Jetty?
I think it's mostly the battle between Seam 3 and Spring 3, but maybe someone have any real experience with that kind of setup?

A: Jetty is probably the easiest web server to embed. If you are looking for a very small, lightweight configuration, consider creating your own main() method that builds a Jetty Server programatically.
For development, you can also use the org.eclipse.jetty.util.Scanner interface to create a class that watches the paths you want and restarts the webapp when files change. For running from the console, I also created a Thread that periodically scans stdin so that when I hit Enter, the web app reloads.
I can't speak to Seam, but with Spring, the whole server starts up in about 5 seconds. Webapp reloads take less than 2 seconds. This may be fast enough that you don't need someting like JRebel.


Also new for this year! I've created an audio version of the book so you can listen to the whole story. I enjoyed reading through the whole story aloud, and I hope you'll enjoying listening to it. Although it's not a dramatized reading, I hope that hearing the words, spoken from my heart, will help you hear God's heart for you this Christmas. You can listen to Part 1 at the link below, or read the text that follows.
Then I read an article by a man who simply loved celebrating Christmas. He could think of no greater way to celebrate the birth of the most important figure in human history than throwing the grandest of parties for Him—gathering and feasting and sharing gifts with as many of his family and friends as possible. This man was a pastor of deep faith and great joy. For him, the joy of Christ's birth was so wondrous that he reveled in every aspect of Christmas, including all the planning, decorating and activities that went along with it. He even loved bringing Santa Claus into the festivities, our modern-day version of the very real and very ancient Saint Nicholas, a man of deep faith and great joy as well who Himself worshipped and adored the Baby who was born in Bethlehem.
I was sold. Christmas could stay—and my kids would be much hap-happier for it, too.
While some people, with good reason, may still go to great lengths to try to remove anything that might possibly hint of secularism from this holiest day of the year, it seems to me equally fitting to go to great lengths to try to restore Santa to his rightful place—not as the patron saint of shopping malls, but as a beacon of light that shines brightly on the One for whom this Holy Day is named.
It is with deep faith and great joy that I offer you this Christmas novella—a little story. I've enjoyed telling it and I hope you'll enjoy hearing it. It just may be the most human telling of the story of Saint Nicholas you've ever heard.
P.S. I've divided this story into 7 parts and 40 chapters to make it easier to read. If you'd like, you can read a part each week leading up to Christmas. Or if you'd like to use this book as a daily devotional, you can read a chapter a day for 40 days leading up to Christmas, counting the Prologue, Epilogue and Conclusion as separate chapters. If you start today, November 16th, you'll finish on Christmas Day!
My name is Dimitri—Dimitri Alexander. But that's not important. What's important is that man over there, lying on his bed. He's—well, I suppose there's really no better way to describe him except to say—he's a saint. Not just because of all the good he's done, but because he was—as a saint always is—a Believer. He believed that there was Someone in life who was greater than he was, Someone who guided him, who helped him through every one of his days.
I should be crying, I know. Believe me, I have been—and I will be again. But for now, I can't help but simply be grateful that he has finally made it to his new home, a home that he has been dreaming about for many years. A home where he can finally talk to God face to face, like I'm talking to you right now.
Oh, he was a saint all right. But to me, and to so many others, he was something even more. He was—how could I put it? An inspiration. A friend. A teacher. A helper. A giver. Oh, he loved to give and give and give some more, until it seemed he had nothing left to give at all. But then he'd reach down deep and find a little more. "There's always something you can give," as he would often say.
Someone once asked the man why he bothered at all—that with so many needs all around, how could he possibly make any difference. He'd just toss another starfish into the water and say, "It made a difference to that one." Then he'd reach down and pick up another.
His name is Nicholas—and this is his story.
Nicholas lived in an ideal world. At least that's the way he saw it. As a nine-year-old boy, growing up on the northern coast of what he called the Great Sea—you might call it the Mediterranean—Nicholas couldn't imagine a better life.
Their richest times came at night, as they shared stories with each other that they had heard about a Man who was like no other Man they had ever known. A Man who lived on the other side of the Great Sea about 280 years earlier. His name was Jesus. Nicholas was enthralled with the stories of this Man who seemed to be so precious in the eyes of his parents. Jesus seemed both down-to-earth and larger-than-life, all at the same time. How could anyone be so humble, yet so noble? How could He be so poor that He was born in an animal stable, yet so generous that He could feed 5,000 people? How could He live His life so fully, yet die a death so cruelly? Jesus was, to Nicholas, an enigma, the most fascinating person about whom he'd ever heard. One day, Nicholas thought to himself, he hoped to visit this land on the other side of the sea—and walk where Jesus walked.
Tonight, however, he simply trusted the words of his father, listening to his parents' prayers for him—and for those in his city—as he drifted off into a perfect sleep.
Nicholas never quite knew what to make of this prayer. Wouldn't God always want what's best for us? And how could someone's death ever be a good thing? Yet his father prayed that prayer so often, and with such sincerity of heart, that Nicholas was confident that it was the right thing to pray. But how God could answer any other way than healing the boy—and still work it out for good—remained a mystery.
After Nicholas' mother had added her own words to the prayer, and Nicholas himself had joined in, his father concluded with thanks to God for listening—and for already answering their prayers.
These latter prayers were what people clung to the most. More than anything else, these words gave them hope—hope that their lives were not lived in vain, hope that their deaths were not going unnoticed by the God who created them.
While his father's response didn't answer the immediate question on Nicholas' heart— which was how much longer it might be till the sickness visited their own home—it seemed to answer a question that went much deeper. It answered the question of whether or not God was aware of all that was going on, and if He was, whether or not He cared enough to do anything about it.
It seemed to Nicholas to be a more glorious answer to his question than he could have imagined. His worry about when the sickness might visit their own home dissipated as he went to sleep that night. Instead, he prayed that God would use his own hands and words—Nicholas' hands and words—as if they were God's very own, reaching out to express God's love for His people.
Coughing again, Nicholas' father remembered that this was no mere intellectual exercise to help him come to grips with a difficult decision. This time—as he looked out at the sunrise once more, and at one more wave rolling in—he realized that this was the final test of everything that he had believed up until this point.

A Guide to Picking the Best Video Streaming Protocol in 2020
Published by Uros Stanimirovic at October 7, 2020
Online video has left an invaluable mark on the year 2020 — online video consumption is at its all-time high, and more and more people are making video a part of their everyday lives. The live streaming industry isn't lagging behind, either! Data shows that its market value has nearly doubled between April 2019 and April 2020! In fact, experts predict that the live streaming industry will be worth over $180 billion by 2027!
Learn More: Streaming Trends in 2020 — What Has Changed This Year
The engaging, personalized, and accessible live streaming technology has indeed changed the world — there's no denying that. But how did we even get to this point? What is the driving force behind live streaming and video tech? The answer isn't that straightforward. However, we cannot argue that video streaming protocols are the foundations of all video broadcasting.
But what are video streaming protocols, what do they do, and how do you pick the best one? These are just some of the things we're going to find out! So if you're a beginner in the online video world and wish to learn more about video streaming technology or are a veteran looking to refresh their memory, you're in the right place! Let's start with the basics…
What Is a Video Streaming Protocol?
Best Video Streaming Protocols in 2020
Real-Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP)
Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP)
HTTP Live Streaming (HLS)
HTTP Dynamic Streaming (HDS)
Microsoft Smooth Streaming (MSS)
MPEG-DASH
So Which Video Streaming Protocol Should I Settle For?
A video streaming protocol is a multimedia delivery method that breaks up video files into segments, sends them to end-users, and reassembles them at their destination. But why does this complex process happen? Because most video files aren't suitable for streaming.
The reasons behind that are simple — RAW video files are often too large for smooth playback and impractical for storage. That is why we need video streaming protocols to optimize videos for streaming!
Learn More About Video File Compression: What Is Video Encoding — the Ins and Outs of Video Encoding
Various protocols are incredibly complex and focus on multiple aspects of the video delivery process. For instance, adaptive bitrate streaming protocols are quite common nowadays and allow users to view online video in the highest quality renditions their devices support. There are even streaming protocols that specialize in minimizing video latency, i.e., the delay between something happening in real time and when it shows up on a user's live stream.
Unfortunately, as essential as streaming protocols are, there are a few inconveniences with them. For instance, both the output and the input devices need to support the used protocol to achieve successful playback. When you combine that with the fact that there are dozens of protocols out there, you can see why picking the best and most versatile one is essential.
Don't worry — that's why we're here to help! We've prepared a list of six of the best video streaming protocols on the market in 2020. We will outline their characteristics, versatility, and strengths and weaknesses.
Here are the six best video streaming protocols in 2020:
Let's look at each in more detail!
Real-time Streaming Protocol is one of the lesser-known ones as it is not widely used nowadays. RTSP is primarily used to operate entertainment and communications systems.
One of the most notable benefits of RTSP is that it is a low-latency protocol, making it an excellent choice for surveillance systems, IoT devices, and mobile SDKs. This protocol is incredibly popular for controlling various types of drones.
Unfortunately, that is where RTSP's positive sides end.
One of the most notable downsides of this streaming protocol is that its native browser support for RTSP is incredibly limited. RTSP is also a dependent protocol, as it relies on the Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP) and Real-Time Control Protocol (RTCP) to accomplish its purpose. When you combine these factors with RTMP's overall lackluster device compatibility, it becomes clear that it leaves much to be desired.
Supported Audio Codecs
Supported Video Codecs
Playback Compatibility
AAC-LC
HE-AAC+ v1 & v2
Speex
Vorbis H.265
VP8 Quicktime Player (and other RTSP/RTP-Compliant players)
Video LAN VLC Media Player
3GPP-Compatible Devices
Low-latency protocol (<2 sec)
An excellent choice for surveillance systems
Dependant on other protocols
Limited native browser support
Lacks in the device compatibility department
RTMP is one of the oldest protocols on the market, but it is quite an effective one for its age! We could even say that RTMP was a pioneering live streaming protocol.
This protocol was primarily developed for streaming media content and took inspiration from Adobe's Flash Player. It is a low-latency protocol, making it a potent choice for a variety of uses. Perhaps the best one is for stream ingestion, which is why many still use it to this day.

However, RTMP's primary compatibility is with the Flash plugin. That puts a hard-set expiry date on this live streaming protocol. That is because Flash is due to shut down by the end of 2020, which will mean the closure of its plugin and all related Flash support. So even though you can still use RTMP to some extent, we wouldn't recommend it as it will soon become obsolete.
Sorenson Spark®
Screen Video v1 & v2 Flash Player
RTMP-Compatible Players
Requires no buffering
An excellent video protocol choice for stream ingestion
Not optimized for quality user experience
Lacks in scalability
Soon to become obsolete due to the death of Flash
HLS is a video streaming protocol developed by Apple in 2009 and is currently the most popular streaming protocol on the web. With the upcoming death of Flash, most Flash users have switched to HTML5 video players and, consequently, the HLS protocol. That is the primary reason it saw such a massive surge in popularity.
Aside from HLS's wider device compatibility and HTML5 player support, this protocol is one of the safest on the market. That is what makes HLS the perfect protocol for streaming live video to massive viewer bases. This safety and security are why most online video platforms use this streaming protocol in their services.
Learn More About HLS: The Ins and Outs of HTTP Live Streaming Protocol (HLS)
The only notable downside of HLS protocol currently is that it can suffer from high latency when live streaming, but there are effective ways to deal with HLS latency.
xHE-AAC
FLAC H.265
H.264 iOS, macOS, and Android Devices
Firefox, Edge, Safari & Chrome Browsers
Most Online Video Platforms
The most used video streaming protocol currently
An adaptive protocol that provides an excellent user experience
Supports high-quality videos
Supported by a broad range of devices
High latency when live streaming
HDS is Adobe's adaptive bitrate streaming protocol that evolved from RTMP, taking its features and video quality to the next level. Although this protocol is still considered a low-latency one, it's not as potent as RTMP in that department. For most uses, though, a few additional seconds of latency is well worth the quality improvement it has over RTMP.
Sadly, HDS suffers from the same fate as RTMP due to its being a Flash-based protocol. Since Flash will be going out of commission soon, HDS will be left in a rough spot in the compatibility department. It does remain a superior option for stream ingest to RTMP due to its adaptive bitrate streaming feature, though!
MP3 H.264
VP6 Flash Player
Adaptive bitrate streaming
Support for high-quality videos
Excellent for stream ingestion
Higher latency than RTMP might be a dealbreaker for some
Lacks scalability
MSS is Microsoft's adaptive bitrate video streaming protocol designed with additional security measures to protect against piracy. The protocol achieves that with its full support for PlayReady DRM.
The most significant downsides of MSS are that its deployment requires a specific Microsoft developer plugin, making it inaccessible for most users. That has led to a massive drop in its popularity from which it hasn't moved to this day, despite its decent range of compatible devices.
WMA H.264
VC-1 Browsers With the Silverlight Plugin
Windows Computers & Phone
iOS Devices and Systems
Many Smart TVs
DRM protection against piracy
Requires a specific Microsoft developer plugin to deploy
The range of compatible devices is mostly restricted to Microsoft's systems and products
Not a wise choice for live streaming
MPEG-DASH is one of the newest streaming protocols and is considered to be an up-and-comer in the industry. Most publishers predict this protocol will be the future of live streaming!
MPEG-DASH is an open-source, adaptive-bitrate protocol, meaning that it is both customizable and optimized for user experience. Such customizability makes this protocol codec-agnostic, meaning it can be adapted to support any audio and video codec imaginable!
Choose the Best Audio Codec for Your Videos and Streams: What Is the Best Audio Codec for Online Video and Live Streaming
MPEG-DASH has also successfully dealt with some delivery and compression issues its predecessors had, making it one of the most optimal choices for broadcasters nowadays.
However, there is one significant downside to this fantastic protocol — device compatibility. MPEG-DASH doesn't have Safari and iOS support, meaning that settling for it will mean sacrificing potential reach.
Any (Codec-Agnostic) Any (Codec-Agnostic) Native Support on All Android Devices
Post-2012 Samsung, Philips, Sony, and Panasonic TVs
YouTube and Netflix
Firefox, Safari, and Chrome Browsers
Open-source protocol
Codec-agnostic
Optimized for user experience
Lacks in the device compatibility department as it isn't supported on iOS devices
Mid-latency protocol (6–30 sec)
The answer to this question is not so straightforward, as it all depends on your needs, but we are going to give you our thoughts.
MPEG-DASH is currently the most promising streaming protocol, though it has yet to gain traction in the online world. If you don't mind the downside of not being compatible with iOS devices, you should keep an eye on MPEG-DASH in the near future. But despite MPEG-DASH being so promising, we cannot recommend it yet since it's still an incredibly young protocol, and we are yet to see its full potential.
What we can recommend, though, is that you settle for HLS. This protocol is the most popular for a reason. And with the upcoming death of Flash, the other widely used Flash-based protocols will die out, making even more people turn toward HLS.
But why do we recommend HLS? Because it is compatible with most browsers and devices out there, it is widely used in HTML5 players worldwide, and it offers excellent video quality and user experience.
We can personally vouch for HLS as we at Brid.TV use it to deliver video and live streams to users worldwide. Our video monetization platform and HTML5 player offers secure video hosting, distribution, and monetization services for video and streaming content.

What is the best protocol for streaming video?
The best protocol for streaming video is undoubtedly HTTP live streaming protocol (HLS). This adaptive streaming protocol is the most used one on the market and is currently the best alternative to the outdated RTMP protocol that the now-obsolete FLASH player uses.
What is the best protocol for live streaming?
The best protocol for live streaming is the adaptive bitrate HTTP live streaming protocol (HLS) because it offers the best user experience for viewers. Another up-and-coming adaptive bitrate protocol excellent for live streaming is MPEG-DASH, but this protocol is still young and underutilized.
What is the best low latency streaming protocol?
The best low latency streaming protocol is HTTP live streaming protocol (HLS) if adequately optimized for low-latency streaming.
What is the best streaming protocol for Android?
The best streaming protocol for Android is HTTP live streaming protocol (HLS), which is also one of the most widely used streaming protocols on the market. An excellent alternative to HLS for Android is MPEG-DASH.

What's Holding Back New York's Efforts to End AIDS?
On December 1, World AIDS Day, a coalition of HIV/AIDS advocates is rallying in downtown New York City, calling for the expansion of housing support for low-income HIV/AIDS patients. They are drawing attention to the fact that in New York, efforts to end HIV/AIDS won't succeed unless we also address the homelessness and overdose crises.
"Stigma is the most dangerous component [of living with HIV/AIDS]," Ruwi Shaikh, HIV/AIDS campaign coordinator for VOCAL-NY, told Filter. "Even though we have reached the target in terms of treatment in NYC, stigma has not gone anywhere. When it comes to homophobia or transphobia or using drugs, these are stigmas we have not tackled. It's making it exponentially harder for people to receive treatment or get housing."
The protest comes as the state government has pushed back its goal to end the AIDS epidemic—from an original target of 2020 to 2024, as Governor Kathy Hochul's office announced on November 30.
"New York State was on track to end the epidemic by the end of 2020, with outcomes measuring Ending the Epidemic progress available by December 2021," reads a report from the state health department. "However, the State and providers on the frontline have spent the majority of 2020 and early 2021 responding to an unprecedented pandemic and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future." It cites decreases in HIV testing, treatment and other related services caused by COVID-19 disruptions.
New York's Blueprint, Missed Targets and Disparities
In June 2014, then-New York Governor Andrew Cuomo first announced its "Blueprint to End the AIDS Epidemic." Its goal was to achieve a decrease in the state's HIV prevalence by the end of 2020. In the same week, Cuomo struck a deal with three major HIV medicine manufacturers to make treatment more affordable for New Yorkers. The moves came after decades of grassroots HIV/AIDS activism in New York.
The Blueprint involves finding people with previously undiagnosed HIV and connecting them to care, then helping them stay connected to treatment on anti-retroviral therapy. ART consists of daily medicine to suppress HIV in the body. When successful, the virus becomes undetectable by blood tests and cannot be transmitted to others.
The state must also help at-risk people get the pill for Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP), which helps protect them from contracting HIV. In New York State, Medicaid and other private health insurance covers the cost of PrEP. There is financial assistance for low-income and uninsured patients, but it doesn't cover the full cost.
In December 2019, the New York City health department announced it had met an important United Nations target, two years ahead of schedule:"90-90-90." The target refers to 90 percent of people living with HIV knowing their status; 90 percent accessing ART; and 90 percent on ART remaining virally suppressed. New York City was the first US city to reach this goal.
New York State has set slightly different targets for these metrics. But as yet, it hasn't hit its targets for people knowing their HIV status, receiving ART treatment or being virally suppressed.
New HIV diagnoses in the state decreased 45 percent between 2009-2019. Of over 107,000 New Yorkers who live with HIV, 22 percent reside outside of NYC.
Statewide, Black and Hispanic residents are respectively 9.7 times and 6.3 times more likely to receive new HIV diagnoses than white residents.
The Needs of Unhoused People and Drug Users
Last year, a cluster of new HIV cases was reported in upstate Monroe County, home to the city of Rochester. The outbreak was attributed primarily to the sharing of needles for drug use, and disproportionately affected Black and Hispanic residents.
But while the state health department's recommendations included expanding access to sterile syringes, Cuomo's administration was cutting or denying payments to syringe providers throughout the state. The cuts seem to have been linked to decreased state tax revenues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The weakening of harm reduction programs is among the more shameful parts of the Cuomo's legacy.
His successor, Governor Hochul, has taken several steps to reduce harms for people who inject drugs, including decriminalizing syringe possession statewide.
VOCAL-NY and other advocates are rallying to remind Gov. Hochul that ending HIV/AIDS goes hand-in-hand with ending homelessness. Her AIDS efforts should include, they demand, passing the PATHS Bill (Point of Access to Housing and Services).
The legislation would ensure benefits and services for people living with HIV/AIDS throughout the state. It would also expand rental assistance and rent controls, plus nutrition and transportation benefits, to low-income New Yorkers with HIV/AIDS. The kinds of benefits granted by PATHS are already offered by New York City through its HASA program.
NYC shelter residents are more than twice as likely to receive an HIV diagnosis compared to the housed population. And at this moment, New York City has more unhoused people than at any point since the Great Depression. Making sure that people living with HIV/AIDS stay stably housed means they are overall healthier and have the stability to receive regular treatment.
Shaikh is cautiously optimistic that Hochul will do what Cuomo wouldn't. "It is positive that she is very much aligned with the overdose crisis [goals]," she said. "I think she's determined to end that epidemic, and that's very much interrelated with the AIDS epidemic."

Firefox 49 will ship with multi-process architecture
Mozilla plans to make Firefox 49 the first stable version of the web browser in which the browser's new multi-process architecture Electrolysis (E10S) is enabled by default for a major part of the browser's userbase.
It seems that the never ending story of making Firefox a multi-process browser will soon come to an end, as plans are underway to deliver the feature to the stable version of the browser with the coming two releases.
Firefox E10S is Mozilla's largest undertaking up until now, if you leave out the creation of Firefox in first place, and that's probably one of the major reasons why the implementation was plagued with delays.
It all started in 2013 when Mozilla announced that it would revive the multi-process project for Firefox, but it took about a year before it made the project a priority.
Mozilla wanted to deliver E10s as early as Firefox 36, but things got delayed along the way and it was clear that it would take longer than expected to deliver the new feature to the stable version of the browser.
The Firefox E10S Story starts with Firefox 48
Firefox E10s met all release criteria in the last six weeks during beta tests including stability, page loading times, startup and shutdown times, memory use, and more.
The current -- and likely final -- schedule for multi-process Firefox is therefore:
Firefox 48 Stable: about 1% of qualifying users will have the multi-process architecture enabled by default. Mozilla plans to increase the number during the release cycle.
Firefox 49 Stable: 100% of qualifying users will be able to use E10S.
Qualifying users are all users that don't use add-ons and have not activated accessibility support over 30 days.
The groups that will have to wait a bit for E10S account for about half of our release users and include Windows XP users, users with screen readers, RTL users, and the largest group, extension users.)
Firefox 48 will be released on August 1, 2016, and Firefox 49, on September 12, 2016.
Mozilla revealed in January that 40% of Firefox users don't use add-ons. If you add Windows XP users to that, and those who have used accessibility tools, you'll probably come close to the 50% of users that Asa Dotzler mentioned recently when he revealed the schedule.
This means that the major part of the "close-to" 50% will get E10S with Firefox 48, or at the latest with Firefox 49, and that the remaining percent won't get it with Firefox 49 but at a later point in time.
Not all add-ons are compatible with E10S, and while major ones are already, others are not right now and some will never be compatible (for example abandoned add-ons).
Launching E10S only for users without add-ons ensures that add-on compatibility issues won't play a role when it comes to the release.
Mozilla announced that it will monitor the launch carefully, and there is still a chance that the final release will be postponed if major bugs are discovered in the process.
Firefox Electrolysis is already on by default on the Nightly and Developer channel. 50% of qualifying beta users got E10S with Firefox 47 Beta, and 100% will get it with today's update to Firefox 48 Beta.
Now You: Have you tried Electrolysis already? What's your experience so far?
Mozilla plans to make Firefox 49 the first stable version of the web browser to launch with multi-process architecture enabled for a large part of users.

I'm reluctant to leave ESR but I am going to have to try this.
By the way, pro-tip: Using 64-bit Firefox has the helpful side-effect of ignoring all 32bit plug-ins. Very nice.
sad said on June 8, 2016 at 5:39 am
I don't care about Electrolysis. As long as Classic Theme Restorer(and some other addons not exist in Chrome) still work, I'll keep using Firefox. If those won't work anymore, what's the point using Firefox? It's just a Chrome clone.
one of my most used addons died today :(

anohana said on June 8, 2016 at 10:27 am
I'm with you, I don't want to use a chrome clone. PaleMoon is not the best alternative, because a lot of addons don't compatible with it. :(
Max said on June 8, 2016 at 4:36 pm
The latest versions of the addons often won't work with Pale Moon, because they've been updated for the Australis interface, or to maintain compatibility with other aspects of Firefox. However for most of them there is either an earlier compatible version, a PaleMoon forked version, or another alternative.
I've just tested Element Properties 10 and seems to work OK (though not sure how much information it normally provides).
Some more info at https://addons.palemoon.org/resources/incompatible/
FWIW, I was running FireFox with over 80 addons, moved to Pale Moon a year ago, and it only took a couple of hours to get the addons (or equivalent alternatives) running in Pale Moon.
Pete said on June 8, 2016 at 1:20 pm
Scary times ahead. Will RAM usage skyrocket (nightmare for people that use more than few tabs open at the same time)? Add-ons, how many of them will die (though the "end" of add-ons is coming anyways in the future)? Which other browser one could move to? I hate constant change now that I've "grown up".
Martin Brinkmann said on June 8, 2016 at 1:44 pm
According to Mozilla, about 20% more RAM at first, but this will get optimized: https://www.ghacks.net/2016/02/13/multi-process-firefox-will-use-up-to-20-more-ram-initially/
Ben said on June 8, 2016 at 2:49 pm
The only kinda alternative is Vivaldi. It has some good things, but it has the chrome-problem: It takes huge amounts of memory and worse, you cannot have more than a couple of tabs because the tab bar is simply shit.
Appster said on June 8, 2016 at 4:34 pm
@Pete: Long-term Pale Moon will probably remain a single process browser. I can really recommend it, as it runs quite stable here. Its development path is quite conservative (no fiddling with the UI). Mid-term you could also switch to Firefox 45 ESR, which is single process and will be supported until the first half of 2017. Don't listen to the advice of Ben though, Vivaldi is a Multiprocess Browser just like Chrome or the Firefox of the future. However, featurewise Vivaldi is great of course. Conclusion: Your only long-term option will most likely be Pale Moon.

rodocop said on June 18, 2016 at 2:00 am
K-Meleon is the most real alternative: mature, lightweight, oldschooled ;-) Only few FF-addons can be used with it but it has its own ecosystem with more than 700 native extensions and comparatively easy macrolanguage to create new extensions.
They can be pure macros, or that macros may integrate 3rd-party apps, JS-userscripts or system commands into K-Meleon.
bigmike said on June 8, 2016 at 2:52 pm
I really dont understand the argument "x plugin wont work anymore its all mozillas fault!" How about instead of getting angry at mozilla you get angry at the developer of the plugin. mozilla is trying new things and trying to improve things but because some plugins break people do nothing but complain. im sorry but plugin developers have to learn to update and evolve there software just like everyone else does.
The old motto if it aint broke dont fix it does not work as often as people want it to. if it did we would still be solely reliant on flash for video. i know change can be a pain but sometimes you have to suck it up and deal. sorry for the rant but people whining about plugins being broken and its all mozillas fault is really really tiring to hear over and over again.
i honestly am excited for mozillas servo project and hope that they really push that, but because plugins will break thats is all people will see and care about. not the many other benefits :/
Firstly, it's "Add-Ons", not "Plug-ins". Plug-ins are things like Flash or Silverlight. And secondly I don't know what you want to tell us. Most Add-On developers are competent and have supported their Add-Ons for many years. Most popular Add-Ons like Tab Mix Plus or AdBlock Plus have been around for more than one decade and counting. The developers have swallowed every BS Mozilla has thrown at them, but in recent times Mozilla has gone full-blown mad. Electrolysis (e10s), the multiprocess architecture of Firefox will require major updates. This is not the most serious problem, though. In fact, Mozilla plans to abandon their core technologies XUL and XPCOM which many powerful Add-Ons rely on. This is to say that the Add-On has to be rewritten COMPLETELY, if possible at all. WebExtensions are API-based and don't allow full access to the browser core. For people like me who only use Firefox because of things like Classic Theme Restorer or Tab Mix Plus, this is the final nail in the coffin. The future of those Add-Ons is currently unknown. I really wish some people wouldn't be so ignorant and reduce the importance of Add-Ons so that it fits into their horizon ("whiners"). And Servo is nothing but a tech-demo as of now.

I concur in that an E10S Firefox without essential add-ons like TMP, CTR, Status-4-Evar, NoScript, Stylish, uBlock Origin effectively makes it not Firefox but a new product that isn't going to be acceptable to me.
The future of Firefox has been a showdown b/w Mozilla's direction since Australis (not necessarily or e.ntirely Australis itself) and a direction pre-Australis loyal users would like to see the browser go in. That is: stop compromising the interface and flexibility by continuosly cutting back existing APIs in the name of competing with (copying?) Chrome. Instead, focus on under-the-hood development to bring Firefox up to parity with other browsers.
e10s has taken a ludicrously long time thanks to stupid management decisions as much as any time delays in the coding required. Firefox OS was a bad idea. Indecision about the importance and priority of implementing e10s compromised it's delivery date as badly as any other factor. If time in the tech world is more like the ratio of dog years to human years, the years since 2009 when Chrome *debuted* as multi-process until e10s is bedded in with full add-on support and reliable running ( probably in late 2017 at the earliest) will be equivalent to about 50 years. It's only in that sort of perspective that we get to understand how badly Mozilla has managed our beloved browser in the second half of it's lifespan. They've been more concerned with crucifying their own royalty and murdering free speech whilst whinging about their relatively small resources compared to their competitors than actually improving the product.
A certain number of loyal users would tolerate delayed implementation of the right changes if resources were the main issue. That's the underdog support mentality that created Firefox's original momentum and market share. But to have the product we have loved so much held back by bad management is just like giving yourself to charity only to find the administrators of said charity have flown the coop with the cash to the Cayman Islands or wherever.

I have just 2 GB of RAM and in the earlier days i can't even open two windows of chrome or it will crash. Now though, I can open two windows each having 3 tabs open and their share of user scripts and extensions. That's how optimizable the chromium platform is with well development. But I still miss the old Ff
Jojo said on June 8, 2016 at 6:41 pm
I know how that feels
I got a PC with 4GB [till couple of weeks ago 3.25GB recognized by XP will I upgraded to 8.1], and I love having lots of tabs open, even if I don't use em…
for example- now I have…67 tabs open [on 4 windows, it used to be 90 :D ] and finding the lowest-ram-monster browser is definitly important!!
Now I wonder would this new FF be worth trying? or should it be older version of it? or maybe pale-moon which I've never tried and was mentioned here by author and commentator….^
Not sure what to chose..
Any suggestion shall be welcomed, GL&HF =]
Try K-Meleon – most lightweight Gecko where I have now 100 tabs open under Win 7 with 2Gb RAM.

Needs some time and efforts to get used with it but it gives your more resource-freedom than any modern browser.
CHEF-KOCH said on June 8, 2016 at 9:36 pm
What to say on this? Copied from Chrome, years to late, now trying to get to the right course again to not lose peoples but if that really helps? I doubt. Mozilla has absolute no concept or anything in the pipe to compete with Chrome. Especially there exist a lot of popular forks, so the no spying or 'against' google argument not really counts.
But if anyone is interested:

An interesting analysis of what BetterFirefox should do – your list looks virtually identical to how Pale Moon has already been built.
Have you considered collaborating on Pale Moon instead of starting from scratch? I know they're keen for more developers to participate…
Martin Brinkmann said on June 9, 2016 at 6:33 am
I doubt that moving to E10S will help Mozilla in the short run when it comes to market share. It will be a good feature eventually, when the security stuff is added but right now, it will certainly irritate users especially when the add-on crowd gets it as well.
Why should full implementation of "security stuff" (E10S-related) help Mozilla on market? It will make FF even more chrommish but all this shit really doesn't help Chrome to be secure and safe browser!
I see only downsides (in terms of usability) without any advantages for normal user.
Pants said on June 9, 2016 at 6:33 am
Cheers CHEF-KOCH … added to Watch [will probably join in :) ]
Just to clarify something: from http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2016/06/firefox-48-electrolysis-download-details/
"The initial version of e10s will split Firefox in twain, dividing the browser between a UI process and a content process. In short, this means that gnarly websites that hog your CPU won't cause the entire browser to become unresponsive. Dotzler says the next step is per-tab processes (so one website running out of control doesn't affect the rest of your tabs), followed by sandboxing for security and then isolating add-ons into their own processes. Mozilla's goal is for this to all happen before the end of 2016."
So the initial e10s is two processes, where they are at the stage where it's about 8 tabs double the memory usage (compared to 8 tabs on a single process). No idea if its linear, probably not. Personally I at most never go past 20 tabs, so I'm not too worried. God help the people who like 200 tabs open :) Although I'm sure there are built in mechanisms for that. Do any users here use chrome with 200 tabs open?
Also: FYI: this actually works in 47, and I think the pref has been around for a while, but I would wait until 48 stable.
// 2631: start the browser in e10s mode (48+)
// After restarting the browser, you can check whether it's enabled by visiting
// about:support and checking that "Multiprocess Windows" = 1
// use force-enable (hidden pref) if you have add-ons
// user_pref("browser.tabs.remote.autostart", true);
// user_pref("browser.tabs.remote.force-enable", true);
also there's this:
// user_pref("extensions.e10sBlocksEnabling", false);
Also: I believe chrome has a soft cap on the number of processes, and combines same domain. Which makes sense.
And its still a long long long way to go guys:

Is there a way to only get security updates with Firefox? I'm farly certain there isn't, but just thought I'd check because there's only one feature in 47 IMHO and that's not even a feature. The long-overdue, plugin-replacing h264 support is seemingly almost there with the fix to make Flash-wrapped video play using HTML5 in an iframe. Presumably this bug:
Otherwise I'm only really interested in security and stability updates. In particular security of course. Firefox users should get security updates in the background, without any user interface notifications, as par for the course in continuous integration style. Security updates are probably the only true need for continuous integration deployment methodology.
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox/#firefox47
In addition, Mozilla has to up it's game to try and be seen as the most security conscious browser as a competitive edge. One of the holes fixed in 47 closes a hole whereby Java applet content could be loaded when they should be blocked. This hole took almost THREE YEARS to fix. It was first reported in August 2013! Chrome had the same issue at the time. If fixed faster, Firefox could have claimed improved security on this topic at least. If Mozilla made security patches the highest priority and fixed them faster, surely this would start to get influential institutions like banks and government recommending Firefox over other browsers again.
No. It's a compiled executable. Its not like you can totally separate all the components, and it would add just more overhead (note that some updates are small, so they certainly have some modular stuff going on, but most if not all security would be baked into the exe). That's just my take on it. The good news, for you, is that a lot of FF releases are rather minor (like this one), and that a lot of stuff can be controlled with preferences. Mozilla generally want to strip everything out of FF in my opinion, and make it all "use an addon". I think/hope the days of dumping shit like pocket and reader and hello are over. I prefer this, as I want them to focus on stability, security, and performance. As for making security updates mandatory, silent, and uncontrolled – I disagree – that is taking away from the end user (although not quite the same, look at MS enforced updates in Win10) – but its a moot point. You either upgrade the browser or not, you get all the changes or not – and then you tweak if needed :)
Just because it's compiled doesn't mean it can't be frequently updated stealth style. Since I reluctantly installed Chrome for development testing, I don't remember many significant moments bothering with updates. I'd say I've never touched it and it's still up to date but I suspect that would be rose coloured glasses. Updates can be done better than Firefox does them. The Firefox Maintenance Service lives on every Windows installation. Correct me if I'm wrong but that enables Mozilla a substantial degree of flexibility in updating. Sure it's meant to make Firefox start faster but it's a service, it's always there, surely Mozilla can use it to periodically check for updates, background download those updates, and only install them the next time Firefox runs. It should be a lot more transparent though it has become smoother over the last few years. It had to, of course, with these stupid rolling releases. But there's got to be room for improvement.
CHEF-KOCH said on June 9, 2016 at 12:46 pm
Thanks guys for the feedback and sorry for the self-promotion, but it was/is related to Firefox. Can someone link me the mentioned Palemoon list? So that I can contact them. THX.

Sukhen said on June 9, 2016 at 3:18 pm
Is there anything that Firefox can and Cyberfox fails to do?
Cyberfox is a 64 Bit browser, this means you won't be able to run any 32 Bit Plug-In (Mind you: Plug-Ins are not the same as Add-Ons – you will be able to run every Add-On perfectly fine). However, this is also true for Firefox 64 Bit and any other 64 Bit variant of Firefox, like Waterfox. Apart from that rather minor issue I can only see advantages in Cyberfox.
I had a look at Cyberfox and I was very close to switching to it. However to switch one's browser, no matter how similar it might be to your existing browser, one would want to have some faith the company behind the new choice is making a long term commitment. Not only does "8pecxstudios" have an inexplicable, unpronounceably stupid name, it doesn't inspire all that confidence in me in for other reasons. Not yet, anyway.
It's also quite aggravating that a random unheard of company can achieve two significant optimizations of Firefox that Mozilla could also easily achieve, but choose not to. IIRC 8pecxstudios are doing nothing new to get Cyberfox running in 64 bit and optimized for particular processor architectures. Processor optimizations have been a compilation option Mozilla coders built in to the browser's code base for years. Probably since day one. But they choose not to use them. The same seems to apply to 64 bit. Mozilla has a 64 bit version but due to ancient NPAPI plugin issues, they've never prioritized their 64 bit version!
Shooting themselves – and all their users – in the foot!
Mark said on August 24, 2016 at 7:18 pm
Using forks is respectable, but if one cares about the Firefox codebase which is a necessity to those forks, perhaps one should consider using Firefox directly to support it and help one of the two Chrome competitors fighting against monopoly. Monopoly is well proven to kill innovation and lead to abuse against users.
Chances are, some customisation and maybe a theme will make Firefox look like any of its forks and function similarly under the hood.
Privacy wise it's also indisputably more interesting for users to use a privacy-oriented mainstream browser like Firefox rather than a privacy-oriented rare breed that stands out. (This is an unfortunate but inescapable truth)

TEGUCIGALPA – The Tegucigalpa Mayor's Office this month will open two urban bus routes exclusively for women to guarantee them greater security, a local government official announced.
The idea is to provide security for women who use the city's urban transport service, since they are frequently the victims of assaults and robberies by common criminals, the official said.
The buses will be painted pink and inside a female cop will ride to provide protection, according to authorities in the capital.
The mayor's project is backed by several women's groups, although critics called it another form of discrimination and believe that women will now be even more at risk because criminals will take advantage of the absence of men on the buses to attack them.
Others have objected that they won't be able to travel with their boyfriend or husband on the pink buses, by order of the mayor's office.
The pilot project will begin with two buses and if the results are satisfactory, the number of routes and buses will be increased, the official said.


A little stubborn goes a long way.
Home → Real Women → A little stubborn goes a long way.
If you were to meet Michelle Marsh—soft-spoken, petite, works with kids, a friendly and inviting smile—you may not guess 'stubborn' as one of the main traits that's defined her life.
But as she talks about important, life altering decisions—the ones that made her grow, that determined her character, that gave her the life she's living today—her stubbornness, paired with a desire to focus on feeling happy and fulfilled, consistently shines through.
Michelle, the owner and founder of French for Life, an afterschool French immersion program, never wanted to be a teacher. In fact, with two parents who taught, Michelle adamantly refused that teaching would be her life, even though it was the path people expected of her. Stubborn.
As a young girl, Michelle struggled with an eating disorder. Her treatment involved hospital visits and therapists. However, at the age of twelve, she told her parents she didn't want to keep going. Although she acknowledges therapy may be the correct choice for some, for her, it wasn't the right fit.
The disorder, she realized, was holding her back, defining how people saw her and taking away her power to define herself. So, rather than focus on treatment, or reaching a particular weight, Michelle resolved to move past any reminders that something was wrong. She focused instead on what she wanted to achieve in life and set a vision for her future. Her stubbornness helped her find healing.
As mentioned earlier, Michelle's vision for her life didn't include teaching. In university, she majored in Kinesiology, following, she says with a laugh, in her brother's footsteps rather than her parents'.
However, when the opportunity arose to work as a French monitor in the school system she fell in love—both with teaching French and working with kids. She dropped kinesiology and started studying French and education.
After several years teaching in the school system, where she had to give number grades to five year olds—a system that didn't make sense to her— and where the confines of a 9-5 job coupled with the rigid rules of the school system were stealing her joy, Michelle realized her first instincts were correct. Being a school teacher was not for her.
She craved the freedom and flexibility to pursue her passions, both within and outside of work, and wanted her life to focus on a pursuit that would let her set and realize her own goals.
But she did love to teach.
Michelle let that stubborn streak direct her path once more.
While in university, Michelle worked part-time as a French tutor. The demand was so great that she ended up hiring other university students to work out of her parents' basement.
After realizing teaching wasn't for her, she quit to put her all into the tutoring business, which, in 2012, had expanded into the first French immersion after school program in Newfoundland.
Owning and running a business presented new constraints. Michelle was only twenty-three when she incorporated. She had no capital, no business degree, and a hard time figuring things out. Where would/could/should the program run? How would she afford busses that may not even get used? Would anyone grant her a mortgage?
Without all the answers, and without proper market research, she jumped in anyway.
But she believes the reason it worked is because she was doing what she was meant to do, something that lit her up and got her excited every day. It ended up being the right community, and the right time.
In a few short years the program has grown from eight initial signups to fifty nine children at their original location in Paradise, Newfoundland. In addition, they have eighteen students in private tutoring, and an additional fifteen children at the new location they've recently opened.
Michelle's parents have been a huge help, guiding her on programming and planning. Her husband, brother, and sister (who are also entrepreneurs) are her 'go-to's' when she can't figure something out or needs someone to bounce ideas off of. And the gym is where she goes to clear her head, enabling her to refocus and figure out whatever problem or issue is coming next.
Linked to her stubbornness, another thing you probably wouldn't guess about Michelle is that she's been a competitive powerlifter. In her own words, she's a 'very little person,' and powerlifting has been a huge part in shaping who she is.
She tells the story of qualifying for nationals 'by the skin of her teeth'. She had to squat, deadlift, and bench. She messed up, missing two squats she shouldn't have. So to qualify, she needed to lift a weight she'd never attempted. She hit a moment, got in the zone, and even before lifting, knew she could do it, through tapping into an inner strength she'd never realized.
A strength that's served her well.
Michelle sees these defining moments as all interconnected—overcoming the eating disorder, powerlifting, starting her own business—all representative of a stubborn desire to do the best she can do, creating a vision of her life and future that's full of passion.
Working with kids, she says, is something you can't fake. And she doesn't have to.
Daily, Michelle gets to help children with the problems their teachers can't address—because class sizes are too big or curriculum demands focus on specific areas, such as grammar, or there isn't enough time in the day.

ED2015 Interviews ED2015 Physical ED2015 Week3 Edition
Eddie Nixon and Christina Elliot: Giving dance its place
By Chris Cooke | Published on Thursday 27 August 2015
London-based dance performance hub The Place has shifted North this August to present three great shows as part of Summerhall's Fringe programme. While it's here, the venue has also teamed up with Total Theatre to launch a new award celebrating dance at the Festival. We caught up with Director Eddie Nixon and Producer Christina Elliot to find out more.
CC: For those not familiar with your year-round work, tell us a bit about The Place.
CE: The Place is in London and it's somewhere you can watch, learn and make dance. As well as our theatre, and our classes, we support artists to make and tour dance shows.
CC: And tell us about the Work Place scheme.
CE: It's an associate artist programme. We give eleven choreographers bespoke producing support, and some money, space and advice. They work in different ways, and make different styles of performance, so we tailor the way we work with them according to their ambitions.
CC: Why did you decide to bring three productions to the Edinburgh Fringe this year?
EN: The shows came first. Three artists we support had brilliant new shows and we thought they really deserved a broader audience than you can find in London. The Fringe is perfect for this, because there's a curiosity and eagerness to try something unfamiliar here. We hope it will also lead to further opportunities for the shows to tour, and to be seen by even more people around the UK and beyond.
CC: Let's talk about the shows, and let's start with Ben Duke's solo performance inspired by Milton's 'Paradise Lost'.
EN: This is a show that reveals the fallibility of everything – theatre, God, the best laid plans. Like all good comedy it has a kind of masochistic wit. It's an epic miniature about the fragility of creating things.
CC: And what about 'Idiot-Syncrasy'?
EN: To say this piece is charming would be a monumental understatement! It's bottled optimism; beguilingly simple and infectiously joyful. We've watched it many times and every night it still leaves your heart singing and jumping along.
CC: And finally 'T-Dance'.
EN: We've all sat in some auditorium thinking "please don't pick on me". This show tenderly, lovingly ushers those feelings away. A dance that's like feeling the hand of an old friend touching your cheek
CC: Why did you decide to collaborate with Summerhall on your Fringe season?
CE: It seems like one of the homes for experimentation on the Fringe at the moment, and so one of the places where you can find the kind of audience we just described. It's full of artists and audiences who want to take a risk together. It's also a great place to hang out.
CC: The Fringe's dance programme can sometimes be overshadowed by the comedy and theatre sections, but is this a good place to present and perform dance-based shows?
CE: The categorisation is kind of the problem. It pigeonholes shows. There's plenty of theatre with dance in it, and plenty of dance that's very, very funny. In an alternative universe the Fringe brochure might just have one long section called 'Performance' and we'd all navigate our own way through it.
CC: You're also partnering with Total Theatre on a new award this year, tell us more about that.
EN: There are lots of great dance shows at the Fringe and we thought they deserved to be talked about a lot more. The idea of the award is that it fuels the conversation, amongst the audience and the critics, about what makes a piece of dance performance unforgettable.
CC: I sort of thought Total Theatre had a dance award already! I suppose because they have celebrated some key dance shows in the past under their other categories. Why do you think there needs to be a standalone prize for this section of the Fringe?
CE: Like you said – dance slips under the radar. And as we said, we wish things were less sliced up. There aren't any other major dance prizes on the Fringe and although, occasionally, a dance show sneaks into another category, at the moment we want to celebrate some of the outstanding shows that are up here. Maybe in a few years we won't need it anymore.
CC: With three shows and the award, I am guessing you've had a very busy Festival. What have been the highlights so far?
EN: Seeing hundreds of people come out of the shows we're presenting at Summerhall laughing, weeping, gesturing animatedly and saying "I've never really seen a dance show like that before".
CC: Will we be able to see any of your Edinburgh shows at your own venue, or elsewhere, later this year?
EN: 'Paradise Lost (Lies Unopened Beside Me)' is on at The Place in October. And Igor and Moreno – who are behind 'Idiot-Syncrasy' – and Vera Tussing – of 'T-Dance' – are both premiering new shows with us the same month. And, of course, by the end of the Festival they'll all have countless invitations to tour around the world.
The Place's shows 'Paradise Lost (Lies Unopened Beside Me)', 'Idiot-Syncrasy' and 'T-Dance' were all performed at Summerhall at Edinburgh Festival 2015.
