It depends on what you are looking at. Chrome is the IE6 of the modern web as far as it is often the only browser people care about, but it's very much the opposite of IE6 regarding developing new features and moving web tech forward. In order to have a productive conversation about which browser is the new IE6, I think it's important to state what you are measuring
it's the browser you need when your shitty default browser decided to spend their money elsewhere instead of building a proper browser that can compete against the app store lock in
If anyone is building using experimental features that are either flagged or unflagged in Chrome, that's NOT on Chrome. For example, if I built a feature based on Chrome's weird Observables, sure, I could do it... it would work nowhere else. If you're actually seeing this happen, who do you blame in this situation?
IE flat out refused to implement features that were agreed upon by standards bodies. They pushed for VML development and ignored SVG. They ignored CSS3 in favor of their DirectX filters. Chrome does indeed put experimental features out there AFTER they support the standards. Firefox also has agreed to a set of web standards and is simply behind on implementation.
Having lived(as a developer) through IE4 - IE9, I reserve that title of "the new IE" for the worst offenders.
The Nes classic console. The roms had an iNes emulator header lol.
And the playstation classic used an opensource ps1 emulator.
There was also some steam game ported from GameCube, and it had the Dolphin Emulator FPS counter in the corner of part of the trailer :D
I also remember reading that 2 of the PCSX2 devs ended up working on the EmotionEngine chip emulator for PS3 consoles with partial software emulation of PS2 (The CECH 02 and later models where they removed the EmotionEngine chip)
Nowhere near as good as Firefox on Android. That said you can get a clunky version with Brave. It's got a block and You can use use picture in picture to throw the video in the background. It sometimes pauses if you lock the screen but if you play around, there's a kind of race condition where you hit play again at the right time and it'll work.
There's also uYouPlus if you have a way to load apps without going through the store.
Scout, Maverick (and Qwen3) were a step backwards but so was Claude 3.7 for coding (people stuck with 3.5).
Seems like they can afford to make mistakes for the time being.
> So while inference in itself can be
Isn't it already profitable in some cases? Eg. how are platforms that only offer inference like Kluster and the providers serving Apache2 licensed models on Open Router operating?
Yeah someone trained a parody model to do this (a little over the top lol).

Usually, when people think about the prompt tokens for a chat model, the initial system prompt is the vast majority of the tokens and it's the same regardless for many usage modes. You might have a slightly different system prompt for code than you have for English or for chatting, but that is 3 prompts which you can permanently put in some sort of persistent KV cache. After that, only your specific request in that mode is uncached.
It's the browser we're FORCED to have installed for the occasional shitty flight or hotel booking that doesn't work in Firefox.
