I don't mind ads if they're not intrusive or even useful. HN has ads, in the form of job listings for YC companies. They don't bother me in the slightest, and if i lived in the US they might even provide value to me. The hund

False. When they rolled this out i was trvially able to replace the allowed extensions id's with a root shell and they downloaded and worked just fine. Also, a website is also downloading and execing js, the same as an extension.

I'll bite. Why not ditch the "% test coverage" metric then, since as you just elaborated, it's not a good metric. I would prefer my language wasn't designed around corporate bureaucracy personally.
