    This whole thread is a Reddit-style two minutes' hate session that gets pissy about the language of his post without addressing the content.

    Eich is right to be wary of US Intelligence infiltration of the non-profit sector, and his characterization of the sector's hiring preferences is probably accurate.

    Also the image presented by the glowies concept is hilarious, and demonstrates again why the Right memes better than the Left.

        its from terry davis, the schizophrenic talented developer who wrote his own OS (TempleOS) from scratch as one of gods temples or something, however he was pretty racist and delusional, so would see "glowies" of CIA agents or whatever trying to get him, and now the term is used for people suspecting others of being federal agents

        Let's not forget the embedded racism in the original claim, which was that "CIA n*ggers glow in the dark."

          Is this racist against the Irish? I mean that is traditional, but sounds so strange.

          "Irish need not apply" was a common thing in job ads at one time; asshat here is doing the usual conservative thing of pretending to be unfairly persecuted

              The IRS rules governing nonprofits still required the Mozilla Foundation to beg big to go big: the parent had to go find big grants from Soros, Ford, Knight, MacArthur, and give smaller grants to many. This put it in the lefties-only-no-righty-Irish-need-apply revolving-door personnel sector of NGOs and nonprofits (too many glowies there for me, too). Which meant I had a hostile MoFo over my head the minute I got CEO appointment from the MoCo board...

              Of course I can't comment on anything about my exit, for reasons that only the most loopy HN h8ers still can't figure out.

                    Turn it all off and it's no more in your face. The browser itself functions great when configured according to your needs.

                    Fuck their CEO though. Focus on the product. It works and consistently ranks as one of the highest orivacy based browser according to the EFF and multiple non profit sources.

                    At that point, why give the nazi fuck any browser usage? If you don't trust the source, don't trust the product.

                    Like the other person said, use Ungoogled Chromium. I use it on a couple of my devices and it works pretty well.

                          Is there a good mobile browser that...

                          • Supports adblock?
                          • Doesn't have as many rendering issues as Firefox on mobile sites?

                          I know the latter isn't Firefox's fault, but it still impacts the end user.

                              Firefox + ublock origin + android is the best browsing experience on mobile.

                                The thing I've started to notice is the further you stray away from a big box products and into micro custom solutions there is always trade-offs. So far as being unique and the hassle that comes with it maintenance.

                                The more hands off you are big corpo and I agree they aren't your friends, the more you have to maintain the software or setup personally. Or trust the person or people doing it all day everyday and never let up.

                                I trust other people mostly, who's job it is to do these things all day everyday. Having 3rd parties to audit them, than I could be able to, or would want to, consistently maintain software at the standard it requires with the fast changing landscape we have today.

                                While you gain more features to some degree, you lose in others like security against vulnerabilities and sheer eyes and minds on the code.

                                Fuck their CEO if he is off the wall. Focus on the goal of privacy and the tool you need, the rest is fluff. Use what you need first then want.

                                        The fact that he invented Javascript alone makes him a villain. Everything he did after that is just complementary.

                                          Andreessen had fuck-all to do with Firefox. He had worked on Netscape Navigator (which changed names several times over the years and is now known as SeaMonkey), but he had left Mozilla years before Firefox, which was a from-scratch rewrite, became a thing.
