- For fuck sake, for-profit side of Mozilla, get a damn grip!
Update, since this is getting traction on Reddit
I'm not against Mozilla making money. Like a regular citizen needs to make money, companies and even nonprofits need it too.
Don't second guess yourself OP. Firefox is not a product. It's an open-source project countless people have contributed their time and dime to over the years. The Mozilla corporation didn't create Firefox, the open-source community did. Mozilla was entrusted to be the stewards of the project and have repeatedly violated that trust. Mozilla is commoditizing other people's hard work while enriching themselves in the process at the expense of the community and abused the trust we placed in them to get away with it.

- Then use one of the type systems for Perl.
- Then don't use the low level interfaces. In Perl, language features are plug and play. Everything's in a module. Use the core module List::Util instead.
- The subject of the article is about how one of the widely cited papers on the subject was ghost written by Monsanto, the company that produces Glyphosate. That was the accepted science everyone was trusting which we now know is flat out academic fraud.
So how do we know the assessments from organizations like the WHO weren't also based on this same faulty and fraudulent 'science' that was, at the time, widely accepted in academia? We would have to logically assume that any scientific conclusions based on fraudulent scientific studies and false data can not be provably true.
Your assertion relies on circular logic.
- ..and works very well if you do know what you are doing
That's the issue. AI coding agents are only as good as the dev behind the prompt. It works for you because you have an actual background in software engineering of which coding is just one part of the process. AI coding agents can't save the inexperienced from themselves. It just helps amateurs shoot themselves in the foot faster while convincing them they're a marksman.
- If poo flinging monkeys are making the sausage people don't care how good the sausage is.
- The last AI bubble was AI's dial-up era because it was the dial-up era:
- That's how they disable your bed when you don't pay the bill.
- As a long time Gimp user, I remember dealing with the same thing but they did eventually fix that. It actually runs in a single window by default now.
- Google has a long history of using dark patterns in their privacy settings to mislead users. There's a reason all the privacy settings for Google products are in scattered locations and have vague and ambiguous descriptions as to exactly what data is being gathered.
- This is just some BS spam product site. And not even a good one. Your site is bad and you should feel bad.
- Well I don't deal with VCs but from a technical perspective that's is an odd way to phrase it. The perfectly valid explanation in your response is what people the tech scene would expect but if this is a VC money grab then I guess you know your intended audience.
- This is an ongoing longitudinal study with inherent reporting biases and coverage limitations.
Well at least they're honest...
- A society that balances cause and effect! Money is also balanced! Money flows perfectly through multiple lifetimes! Being respected ultimately leads to balance!
What?
- Perl is a messy, maddening programming language
Only because people kept writing horrible code and using Perl as an excuse. Perl is like C, your code is as readable and maintainable as you choose to make it. It's like that old saying about blaming your tools. Just stop writing crap code.
- Yes. I do. Just in case anyone doesn't know Perl has been in active development and has been adding new features the entire time. It was never 'dead'. This is Perl's new OO interface that was recently added as a stable feature in 5.40:
- I got ahold of one long after it was obsolete and that keyboard was awesome. Someone needs to bring back the design.
- I'm sorry but the whole Grok “mechahitler” thing was a feature not a bug. The timing between that and xAI announcing it's AI services for governments and subsequently being awarded a government contract was not coincidental. Elon was demonstrating that Grok 4 comes with a state propaganda switch governments can flip whenever they want.
