An open letter to Mozilla

Dear Mozilla,

The content of this letter is based upon this blog post at the hacks.mozilla.org initiative.

HTML5 video is coming, and a million web developers up and down the web will be soon looking for advice and sample code to make use of HTML5 video. Web developers vary massively in skill and understanding of the open principles of web development, promoted by yourselves via the Mozilla Manifesto.

We cannot expect all developers to understand the knock-on effect of code snippets that they are copy-pasting from people’s sites. It is one thing to educate people with a piece of code, it is another to communicate effectively the principles behind a piece of code. Some developers do not care, and never will—that is a fact of life.

In presenting a JavaScript-only method for using HTML5 video, you are promoting to developers a number of major drawbacks, counter-intuitive to the points outlined in the Mozilla Manifesto.


Read the rest here.

And please do yourselves a favor, you damned sheep and try to understand that you MUST lean about such things and make conscious decisions in the future because we are living in computing hell for the past 20+ years because you fucked up in the 80s. Stop fucking us all up and STUDY the computing stuff ffs!

Computers are like the Force and the Matrix. No matter what the fuck you think that computers are and/or will be, you MUST stop acting like damned sheep. Make a better world and not just the Micro$oft world. While you are there and some of you love the Mozilla, please do make sure that Mozilla too, will build a better tomorrow for us all.

WAKE the fuck UP!!!
