Mozilla the Corporation is having some trouble; seems to have lost focus. The browser is good but the Zeitgeist of HN (and elsewhere on the web) is that their loss of focus is causing their marketshare to decline. Some mis-steps, staff cu

How much difficulty is there in creating a wrapper that could then host multiple rendering engines in it? Like a browser-wrapper that could switch between the chrome, webkit and firefox engines -- embedded in there some how? Perhaps even

I spoke to the dentist. He was retiring and the offer was very, very good. The PE firms can afford this because they know they will get to squeeze a bunch of consumers for the next 10 years.

I care because these PE backed firms can (and do) screw the consumer (me, my family, my friends, you) and there is no visibility. Do you understand it's possible to follow the law and still use greed to screw the consumer? Are you bei

For a small company, a sole-prop dentist for example -- I don't. There is not enough motivation or sophistication or dollars on the table. For PE backed conglomerates I care because they can and do hide shady things in there. There i

I see how that works for a case like Dell. I've also read about PE buying up smaller medical/dental practices and squeezing the price. Happened to my old dentist in Ballard, WA -- and dang, they pushed me for x-rays on every visi

I want to know where my money goes. I like to look at stacked-area (or column) charts of the categories of spending. To make this work I have some software I made ~20 years ago that does double-entry book-keeping. At the end of the month

Nice, I built an internal tool like this once. Love what you've got here. IME the next priority is supporting alternate providers to SG (and I see from the thread it's on your roadmap). Another option for the SMTP part is using

There is no paid-internet without ads -- so it's not that people prefer free we don't really have a group to test against. Maybe it's like the choice between water and no-water -- results show that humans like water. But cho
