“Your kid is safe at school, because we insist all teachers use condoms”

Don’t signal boost their lies.

Another spammy wave of invalid security issues is disgustingly disrespectful of the maintainers’ time.

As a Firefox user, this is not long-awaited. It’s a tepid excuse for a dead project. The forks of Firefox are the only real alternatives if you value privacy over convenience. If you don’t, then there are faster browers than FF anyway.

What if Z was X?

This thing looks like it can do okay on Q. It may be good at Z in the future!

Every single line of code is a maintenance cost, a liability, a velocity cost, and a stability risk.

The software industry knows this. Even Bill Gates famously proclaimed it.

Yet we now allow “it generated so much code!!!” to be told as success stories. Fuck you Sam Altman, Microsoft, and Anthropic for damaging both my industry and its reputation.

Fun experiment: Ask Google if there are more stars in the solar system than grains of sand in a glass of water. See the AI confidently say “yes” and then refresh the query and see it confidently say “no”.

Instead of waiting a few more years for Linux to reach the level of ease-of-use needed to overtake Windows, MS is being sporty by moving the goal closer.
