@LukaszOlejnik This paper seems to be fundamentally flawed — their simulator failed to properly use an RNG, so it simulated giving people the same topics on every site. See https://github.com/yohhaan/topics_api_analysis/issues/1
This points out how great it is for published papers to post their code and data set on GitHub! It means that we can actually point to the bug in their simulator, offer the one-line fix, and immediately re-run the corrected analysis using the author's own fixed code.
Hi. I’m an engineer on the Topics API for Chrome. I took a brief look at your code after seeing rather surprising results in the related paper and it’s important to point out an issue that I came a...
Some years ago, I was walking from the kitchen back to my office at Google, carrying a piece of cake on a plate flat on my hand. There was a path between the desks, and walking towards me was Henry Kissinger followed by Eric Schmidt.

How a billion years since Evernote’s web clipper’s birth, Apple Notes can’t clip a web page?
They have all the ingredients to make it happen. Safari’s Reader View simplifies web pages, and you can copy and paste that content on a note.
Understanding Apple’s choices can often feel like practicing haruspicy.
