<p>Thinking out loud here:<p>This announcement, plus the prospect of Thunderbird Enterprise, makes me wonder if perhaps Mozilla could begin to position itself as a kind of competitor to Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and Proton Suite. They're perhaps the only company I can envision nailing the feature set of the first two, with the privacy and security of the latter.<p>If I could pay for a bundle that includes a hardened browser, a solid email/calendar client, a VPN, and email/calendar/cloud file storage (this of course is the thing that Mozilla is lacking), with all of it tied around my preferred browser, I'd certainly consider moving my company over.</p>

<p>Yes, that is definitely just your bubble. I suppose the word “everyone” is doing an awful lot of lifting here, but I fail to understand how anyone could see the level of bullshit in companies <i>declining.</i></p>

<p>He bought a car company and convinced everyone he founded it. But that's not the problem, really -- the problem is that everyone fawning over him and calling him the "real-life Tony Stark" wasn't enough for his blackhole of an ego.<p>He's a Sieg Heil-ing man-baby who's so fragile he paid people to play video games for him. He called a a guy trying to save children a pedophile just because the guy rightly pointed out Elon's idea was stupid. He has a weird breeder fetish, while disowning children who call him out for his hateful, moronic politics and horrendous parenting (or lack thereof). He's illegally influenced elections and very potentially put his thumb on the scale. I could go on and on.<p>The only thing that worries me about him being one of the most hated people on the planet is that not everyone thinks so and that he still somehow has fans.</p>

<p>Good. Classrooms need very little: good teachers, books, chalkboards, and pencil/paper. That's it.<p>IMO the _material_ being taught is secondary; what truly matters is teaching kids to think, to be bored, to engage with something they don't love but do a good job anyway, to find things they _do_ love that might exist on the other side of some amount of difficulty. They need to be taught how to think, and to have some grit.</p>

<p>If you can't see that AI is not merely "automation" but rather fundamentally aims to usurp human labor, you probably shouldn't be saying who should or shouldn't be speculating.</p>

<p>A website where one views and interacts with all of these things does not necessitate that all of these things run on the same system. Since this most recent GitHub outage, I'm looking into modularizing my git server, issues, and actions; there's no reason why one going down should bring down all the others.</p>

<p>> We have mechanical muscles, and the human strength that was needed before the industrial revolution is no longer important; weight lifters still strength train, but it's a hobby, and nobody needs to do it.<p>The amount of strength required for the median job may have decreased, but that doesn't mean that nobody needs to do it. The health ramifications of not strength training are constant, and the same can be said for using (or not using) our brains.</p>
