In this context the use of "they" is just proper English though. I can't fault someone who speaks a gendered language from using gendered pronouns as is proper in that language, but the use of "they" in English is correct and hardly political or exclusive. Every language is going to have rules that may be strange to non-native speakers, but any "confusion" is easily remedied by explaining that's just how the language works. I find that's also part of the fun of learning another language. I especially love trying to mix the rules of one language into another to see how silly it sounds. :)

Can you elaborate on what you mean that Matrix is a closed protocol? The spec is open and there are several server and clients to choose from.

If this is your first night at Bard Club, you have to bard!

Clearly you've never read Hacker News. :)

Every point I've made has several threads on pretty much every Hacker News post about Mozilla or Firefox.

I was using Firefox when it was still called Phoenix, and I switched to Chrome briefly about 10 years ago when it was actually a bit better than Firefox. At the time, most people I knew in the tech sector were using Firefox. It's Firebug extension was a major boost for development. Chrome was a bit better and their dev tools were even better than Firebug at the time.

I switched back to Firefox when I saw the direction Google was taking it, and I know a lot of other people did as well. Still, many people stayed with Chrome. There's no shortage of comments on Hacker News about "I dropped Firefox because X" or "I tried to switch to Firefox but X", where X is one of the things I mentioned.

Chrome got to where it was in no small part to us "computer people" saying it was good. And now not enough of us are saying Firefox is good. It breaks my heart to see so many young and smart developers choosing Chrome.

We're heading back to the bad old days of IE dominance, with proprietary extensions, playing fast and loose with standards, and market dominance pushing for things that only benefit one company. ActiveX still gives me nightmares.

I've never understood the logic of people who switched to Chrome from Firefox.

Mozilla has an overpaid CEO, so let's switch to a browser that's run by one of the richest companies on the planet. Firefox broke some extension, so let's switch to a browser that has an even worse extension model. Firefox shows client side ads that are easily disabled, so let's switch to a browser actually run by an ad tech company. Firefox changed the UI to look like Chrome (and they hate the design), so I guess switch to Chrome?

It makes no sense...

Please stop using Chrome

Are they not sending out emergency messages via the cell network? Is it not on local news and the radio? Doesn't YouTube have the ability to inject regional advertising? Are they not even putting up road signs mentioning the evacuation?

I don't get how it's Facebook's problem when not everyone has a Facebook account and there are many other (better) avenues.

Maybe I'm missing something about the infrastructure in more remote areas?

Same here. Endeavour has been solid.

Yep, I guess what I'm saying is that as long as people keep voting for "creating more jobs", it'll be difficult to get there. Voting for more jobs includes the whole ethos around those jobs being owned by a handful of people.

I may not live to see it but I'll keep trying to push that direction when I can!

This! Every election is about politicians who want to create jobs. I want to vote for someone who wants us to have less jobs! I thought technology was supposed to make us more productive for more free time.
