We need a better funding model for open source.
Praying that people will donate enough to support your browser isn’t exactly great and really doesn’t work for most open-source projects.
Unless they are doing something new in that space, it’ll just he smooching up to big donors in back rooms.
At least Firefox is open about their deal with Google.
1 or 3; maybe 4.
With several assumptions made, ultimately, they’re asking for json, and we should still return json, but what that looks like is up to you. It should be static enough that the person on the other end can write:
If json.grtnode(error) == "unauthorized access"
Do stuff
Ifnyour going to be changing the text with some regularity to contain relevant information for the error (eg, an item ID, that is now invalid), then consider a code/text and additional fields.
is it decades of hacky code, or decades of battle tested code?
I haven’t touched wordpress in… many years, but I’ve seen far too many developers look at old code and call it junk… only to break things horrifically when they attempt a rewrite.
Removed by mod
A port of a browser is relatively minimal effort. Typically, the changes are largely cosmetic, and occasionally skin deep.
Developing a browser, Firefox or Chrome, takes a huge amount of effort, and are on a similar scale to both Windows and Linux. It’s a lot. There are a lot of places to hide things. Taking all of that, and making V2 continue to work… well it’ll be alright to start with. It’s probably a flag somewhere currently. But in 2 years time? 5 years time? It will take a lot to keep V2 working, let alone back porting V3 features that people may actually want.
Just use Firefox instead.
People like to bemoan the funding model, as well as the Mozilla Foundations broad overview and general “business vibe”
Ok idealist.
What is your alternative funding stream for Mozilla?
It’s bad.
Is it worse than the advertising owned browser that gives your information directly to said advertiser?
Assumedly, to deal with a race condition.
As a general rule, the amount of exploitation and fraud it takes to “become” a billionaire should probably be illegal.
Lying about what you do with peoples data and who you share it with.
Sentencing and punishment are affected by “caste”
An ipod with a much larger screen (320×240 vs 480x320), a camera, and could take phone calls, browse the internet, and do email.
Oh, he was an absolute asshole. Seems I deleted that sentence. RIP me.
“I have enabled and ushered in a new age of knowledge access like no other, here’s a cool way to eat that goes against all reasonable nutritionists’ advice. Sounds good to me!” - Really seems like a fitting way to kick off this century IMO.
I think people love to hate Steve. The one thing people love more than a great figurehead, is hating one. I think that Steve had a great internal model of how to combine form/function.
iPhone wasn’t the first smartphone, but it may as well have been. It brought the smartphone to the mass market.
Part of it was a great advertising campaign, which unlike the smartphones at the time, pitched it as a luxury good as opposed to an executive enterprise one. You owned a blackberry to answer emails wherever and whenever you were, you owned an iphone so you can check Google Maps. A large part of it was redefining both the form factor, and use case of a smartphone.
The US won’t. The EU probably will.
You can, but it requires more skill and more effort.
Skill and effort are often in high demand and low supply.
I could… survive this layout.
But when selling a house, you want to appeal to as many as possible. And this kitchen does not have wide appeal.
Oh, they care.
They got your money one way, and now their getting it another way!
Make the fine the last 10 years of activision/blizzard gross profits.
Make the fuckers bleed.
Penalty? Don’t you mean just another cost of doing business?
Congratulations on being old e ough to buy property when it was cheap.
For the rest of us, we all adapted to the low interest post-08 world. Now, we need to adapt to the higher interest post-21 world.
Oceania tends to refer to the region, including both Australia, New Zealand, Melanesia, Micronesia, and the many small island nations.
Sometimes, we are “collectivly” treated as a continent, despite being almost all island nations with no land boarders.
