Grenier

 Le week-end dernier j'ai fait un tour dans les affaires que je stockais dans le grenier de mes parents j'ai retrouvé des Jeux de rôles complets.

J'ai aussi retrouvé :

  • Mes médailles que j'ai fait refaire il y a quelques années, car je les croyais perdues.
  • Des souvenirs de l'opération Salamandre (badges, pins , zippo)
  •  Une carte militaire de mon déploiement en Bosnie dans le cadre de cette opération.
  • Le manuel de la tourelle de l'AU-F1 (qu'il va me falloir scanner)
  • Des photos panoramiques que je n'ai pas encore scanée de mon séjour en bosnie.
  • Les deux numéros du fanzine que j'éditais quand j'étais en seconde.

Firefox OS's story from a mozilla insider not working on the project

  I clearly remember, but can't date it. I was working for Mozilla messaging at the time ( momo ), being the QA lead for Thunderbird. It was at the end of one of the Mozilla All-hands, maybe in 2011 or 2012. At one of the ending keynotes, we were introduced to Boot 2 Gecko. A hack that would let US - Mozilla own the platform to run a mobile browser on. At the time, the iPhone was going strong and Google was trying to catch up with Android. MeeGo had been in development at Nokia for a while but was going nowhere even when Intel tried to help. Blackberry was slowly starting to die. In the Silicon Valley everything was about mobile, mobile, mobile and the emerging South Easter Asian market, where people would skip computers and use smartphones to join the internet revolution. We were struggling with Chrome and the massive investment by Google to take market share. Our Firefox port on Android was having loads of issues. We were denied by Apple's policies to be present on iPhones....

Are mozilla's fork any good?

To answer that question, we first need to understand how complex, writing or maintaining a web browser is.  A "modern" web browser is : a network stack, and html+[1] parser,  and image+[2] decoder, a javascript[3] interpreter compiler, a User's interface, integration with the underlying OS[4], And all the other things I'm currently forgetting.   Of course, all the above point are interacting with one another in different ways. In order for "the web" to work, standards are developed and then implemented in the different browsers, rendering engines. In order to "make" the browser, you need engineers to write and maintain the code, which is probably around 30 Million lines of code[5] for Firefox. Once the code is written, it needs to be compiled [6] and tested [6]. This requires machines that run the operating system the browser ships to (As of this day, mozilla officially ships on Linux, Microslop Windows and MacOS X - community builds for *BSD do ex...
