Yeah. They made so much money in their java enterprise and they just want to get a hold in the cloud market and not get irrelevant. Their always free their is generous compared to all other clouds.
but who know, how long this will stay…

Wow, this is so well articulated and to the point.
While the idea and visualisation is indeed good, there is an error in the visualization.
Namely, the meaning of “->” is inconsistent. IMO it should be the return value of the function call (like in reverse), but for at least pop, the visualization shows the array instead of the array + return value.
For pop the return value isn’t the array itself, but the popped value: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/pop
The visualisation could be improved by clarifying, that the array after the function call is visualised. And using -> isn’t the best option IMO, because people expect the right side to contain the return value.
thanks, I’ve actually known the video - but not the larger picture.
nevertheless, one of the most impressive and extraordinary and important clips in humanity
Wow. I had never seen the full image. thanks!
And what do you do after three years? Then the cash will be used up.
Mozilla isn’t just developing the Firefox browser. Technology is inherently political - and educating people and influencing actors politically on the free and open web is very important. Firefox is much less likely to mis-align away from their browser users than chrome simply because they don’t have the misaligned incentives like the chrome Browser which is equally made by the largest internet advertising firm of the world.
They even has created FirefoxOS for phone at some point in the past 10 years. But I don’t remember what happened with that.

I’ve yet to see any single new law proposal, that actually tackles this problem rather than misusing it’s emotional trigger to get acceptance for surveillance and control
I mean… it’s also a step back - which kinda fits the entire fiasco well
I am exactly doubting your suggestion of tax paid donations. I don’t think this will happen, unless we actually come together and try to actually enforce this on the political level in various countries.
After all, open source software is an essential and critical foundation since many decades - but I’m not sure, whether there is any government that has made a pledge to donate a certain amount of money per year into the development and funding of such general purpose software. (Maybe I’m wrong though.)
Before the fediverse can get any public funding, we need to make some political efforts. the UN is the largest such institution - and it took all the fiasco with the 2 world war to get many countries pledge to donate to it every year…
A decentralised platform like the Fediverses won’t easily work with nation states and their taxes. Even with Wikipedia today, it’s not funded directly via any government - but rather by certain universities giving some money to it + all the private doners.
And even if we get that working, power politics will mess this up like so often when things actually get troublesome.
It might be interesting to explore cryptocurrencies as for donations here though. They do have international liquidity and they can’t be misused foe power politics.
What about YouTube?
I looked online and there seems to be PeerTube at least.
interesting. my credit card will likely expire before i manage to remove it
