Dear nddrylliog, AFAIK, Firefox has not introduced any change in order to score 100% on Acid3. If you read this article (http://browserfame.com/212/firefox-acid3-test-100 http://browserfame.com/212/firefox-acid3-test-100), you will come to know that the developer of Acid3 test has introduced few changes in order to "update" the test. On the updated Acid3 scale, Firefox scores 100%. This simply indicates that Mozilla was correct! I agree with you: "If you take a Firefox 16 months old and run Acid3 on it now, it would score 100% - I think that's what he meant.". I am unable to understand your comment: "read before you respond stupidly.". Can you please explain my stupidity? (FYI: I am also associated with Mozilla for long, as a volunteer.)

Oh well, here come the downvotes because I have been harsh. Woop de doo. Yes, you're just repeating my (and pretty much everyone's) point here. Your stupidity was only to contradict Asa there, that's all.

  You're doing that thing people do one the internet, when they see a disagreement that doesn't exist. The poster wasn't contradicting asa at all, he was (a) laughing at asa's joke, and (b) trying to make his own. Downvote him if you like for not contributing to the discussion, but your particular comment seemed completely unrelated to the content of his post.

    And the downvote dance continues :) Not that I give a shit though, HN has continuously been going down the toilet for the last few years now. Now it's mostly fanboyism, self-congratulation, oh and gratuitious downvotes without even reading or understanding people's posts. Also, yeah, know even if Asa's was a half-joke, arpitnext's post was not a joke. Well, back to doing useful stuff now.

      I upvoted you. Not because I think what you said is insightful, but because your post serves as a textbook example of a person who not only doesn't see how stupid and trollish his own post is, but also dismisses all forms of legit criticism as fanboyism.

        Oh and don't forget he's ranting about how this site is going down hill while contributing nothing and pretty much making this piece of the thread unpleasant.

        Yeah you're right, don't go to my comment history to judge whether I'm actually making useful contributions to HN. I mean, surely 2-3 poorly written comments are enough to judge a few years of contributions. Bah.
