A few weeks ago. Performance of Chrome is consistent: always snappy. Firefox on the other hand will turn laggy from time to time, especially when opening or closing tabs, when it sometimes freezes noticeably. It is also…
They made the same mistake IE made: around Firefox 3, they allowed their browser to become terribly slow, and so Chrome ate their lunch. Because let's be honest, Chrome was and still is so much faster than Firefox, and…
You better arrange for your suicide, because it seems inevitable. The terrible mismanagement of the Mozilla Corporation is to blame.
Isn't that what they already do?
While real problems are largely ignored, stupid stuff like this takes up all the airtime and moves a sizable amount of votes. Democracy is just a way of keeping the masses docile.
Having a monopoly is not illegal. Using your monopoly to do things you can't do if you're not a monopoly can be illegal depending on the circumstances.
>With everything that is going on with open source licensing What exactly is going on with open source licencing? Is anybody violating open source licences?
If you were the author of a GPL piece of code whose licence was violated, and the EFF came to you and said "we'll pay for the lawyers and in exchange we get publicity", most people would say yes.

The article mentions he's made attempts to fix some of those issues and the problems he's encountered.
All mails I've sent to maintainers of packages regarding issues with them have been ignored. I think they prefer you to use the bug tracker. (Which sucks, so I always end up doing nothing about it.) In the end I…

So that's why so many companies say they use Python? So their competitors become stupidly slow?
I mean, if you want to say something as controversial as that, and you decide to wait until more people say it first, you may have to wait a lifetime. (Once again, I haven't looked at the data, so I don't necessarily…
On one hand, in this political climate it's really stupid to say something like that. On the other, someone has to be the first person to say it. (Not that I necessarily agree with what he said)
Maybe in the rich countries of the EU.
It's not only about being closed source. They are also not in the EU, and they are a for-profit (an Aktiengesellschaft). The only reason I don't use them is because to get the full experience (IMAP, especially) I need…
That reminds me of myself. I remember when I moved from screen to tmux and the default "master" key changed from ^A to ^B. All the time lost changing it back to ^A in .tmux.conf. In the end I simply got used to ^B and…
>Yup, they do. Most of the Google engineers I know who live in the Mission have been mugged or had their car/house broken into at least once. You just learn to not carry a lot of money or expensive stuff with you. It's…
