The problem that I saw in the API was that it was not open to new types of devices and there was no apparent way to download and install new drivers. That is basic OS stuff if this is ever to be a desktop replacement, and that is why Chrome

FF OS should have full access to the capabilities of the device's hardware and anything that it can discover via bluetooth, whatever it is attached to via USB, etc. as long as someone can take an existing Linux driver, recompile it as neede

To not only stage FirefoxOS as a potential desktop OS replacement, but 1-up Android and iOS, how about: * Add support for various types of USB devices. Anything that is supported in Linux via a driver you could install via FF OS would be av

I'm excited about Firefox OS, in concept. However, I'm waiting for something, anything, to show that this isn't going to suffer from large project scope + inadequate resources death. Web controls? Great, but the developers have admitted tha

Watch it. Next thing you know you'll admit that we don't really "know" anything and get into the realm of metaphysics! But, I agree. In fact, the fallibility of science should be something taught in elementary school along with the scientif

I've given a lot of my time to open source projects for the same reasons without getting monetary compensation, however: 1. I don't think that companies will ever give back to a project if there is no "ask". To do this GitHub, etc. could pr

Here's my thing: I've never been hot shit. The closest was the 90s when everyone who knew anything about programming or networking was the bomb, maybe followed by working at a startup for the first time and really digging it and feeling lik
