I was sure it’s Steve Jobs
I sincerely hope that is what’s going to happen and Mozilla gets severely fucked over for how they have been running their shit. Break their business and rethink from scratch how we run and finance the development of one of the most important pieces of software around. Hint: You’re not going to be competitive with big tech by copying their practices, marketing “AI” bullshit and pocket and all that crap. You can’t compete with google there, they can always outspend you.
As a Linux user, such a break would also be very timely, now that we have survived the painful surgeries of systemd and wayland. Those problems are mostly fixed, so we need another dysfunctional troublemaker - Firefox it is!
But seriously: The official story is always that google gives Mozilla the money to be the default search engine. But really, they don’t need to care. Google needs Firefox so they can pretend they don’t have a browser monopoly. For similar reasons, google used to employed 10000s of people who were doing very much non-essential stuff that is entirely irrelevant for their business. They could have fired them all long ago, and massively increased their profitability. But those would have looked obscene and raises regulators’ attention. So just hiring a bunch of expensive engineers who build google chat 23.0 and whatever makes them appear more like a “normal” company.

So someone at Duke University gets paid to make memes?
David Lynch’s is the best version, case closed
The dollar always goes first, especially with apple products
Full or empty?
Exactly my point. In the second case the two lines are also not the product, but it’s heavily implied that the dam, bridge is something useful, while the python code is useless. There are many examples where the opposite is the case
None of these engineers built a dam, ship, or plane. They did some math and drew some lines, and some other people built the stuff.
Would be a cool game mechanic to play with. Typical RPGs just assume you can go to bed, instantly fall asleep and get up at the correct time. What if your character had insomnia due to stress/trauma/…? Any game that does this?
Fucking Star Wars fans…
