Couple of other thoughts:

-If I were moz’s leadership, I’d explicitly sponsor a year-long competition for “best Firefox fork”. Firefox started as a fork, and Moz should try to recapture that vibe.

-Then leave FFox as-is—that brand isn’t worth much to anyone under 40 anyway.

-TIL that people are *still releasing updates of the old Moz Suite aka Seamonkey*. Here in the Year 20-fucking-25. So long-lived forks that allow you to stay with what you like are very possible! hooray _libre_ software.

@robstyles but what's a sema for?

couldn't resist sorry.

@jasongorman same feedback I’ve got now that many engineers in my company started advocating for the “let the agent write the tests” approach - while still calling it TDD.

Most of them now write the code, and then ask the agent to write unit tests for it.

Which is exactly the opposite of what TDD should be.

In TDD your tests are the specs and the contract for your code, and then you write code that complies with that contract. In “agentic tests” mode instead tests are an afterthought slapped on top of existing code, and you keep brute-forcing your prompts until the tests match the code you’ve already written.

The reason IT Security is so hard is someone has to do it. That's the answer.

That is not a technical challenge it is an interpersonal one.

Do you know how many smart people there are trying their very best? You think it would be deluged in security.

But it's not. This is a personal problem and that's what ruins everyone that tries it.
