Firefox 4-20 hasn't had any toolbar button changes. You really can't count third-party addons as something that Mozilla changes to the toolbar.

The Australis inactive tabs don't overlay. Take a look at the mockups. Only the active tab has a background and border styling.

To the author: Saw this on comex's Twitter and got a good kick out of it. My first surprise was that HN didn't already have this submitted. My second was it reaching first page in 3 hours. :)

It happens everywhere. OSS just gives you the chance to see all this in the public. It also gives end-users a way to directly communicate their pain and annoyances to developers.

This is very dangerous. Just from the first paragraph of the page, it is stated that the bill will allow all types of software modification. A bill like this will have a very hard time passing. This was originally suppose to be only about u

With JIT compilation, asm.js, tracing, it is hard to argue against. A long fought browser war really brought out the maximum capabilities of the JavaScript engine. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript_engine#Performance_e... asm.js pro

The power in this is that JavaScript is extensively portable and very consistent across platforms. There are no issues with cross platform support that plagues C++ and to an extent, Java's JVM. There's no possibility of platform lock-in, wh

I fail to understand how blocking cookies on websites you have never visited before is harmful to "innovation", "education", "entertainment", "entrepreneurship", and "millions of consumers". Cookies exist as a mechanism for websites to stor

It annoys me how this release was added to the 2.7.x line when it probably should have been 2.8 given all the changes and feature additions. Freezing the 2.x line means not making huge changes to it. Otherwise, it probably shouldn't have be

Do you really think capping memory usage comes without costs?

That's always bothered me. Firefox's fonts are so crisp and clear. Chrome's look faded for some reason.

Who's making big bucks off Mozilla then? No employee or Mozilla higher-up is making more than average. On the other hand, I can name tons of Google, Microsoft, and Apple guys making billions.

Firefox and Chrome both do this. It is part of the memory caching, which many people disable without knowing the consequences. There were many news articles back around Chrome's release that advised "speed-ups" by disabling cache to free up
