It has come to my attention that the artwork for the original mozilla.org "dinosaur" logo is not widely available online. So, here it is.

As I explained in some detail in my 2016 article "They Live and the secret history of the Mozilla logo", I commissioned this artwork from Shepard Fairey to use as the branding of the newly-founded mozilla.org and our open source release of the Netscape source code, which eventually became Firefox. This happened in March 1998...

서울시 학생인권조례 폐지안이 오늘 오후 재석 86, 찬성 65, 반대 21로 가결되었습니다. 서울시의회 의원 111명 중 국민의힘만 75명입니다. 어찌보면 예상된 결과라고 할 수도 있겠으나 학생인권조례 폐지를 막기 위해 그동안 애쓴 (당장 오늘 오전에도 시의회 앞에서 기자회견을 열던) 각계각층의 사람들을 생각하면 좀은 참담합니다…

16일 간 서울시의회 앞에서 농성하던 '학생인권 후퇴 저지! 긴급행동'은 19시에 문화제를 주최한다고 하네요. 시간되시는 분들은 들러주시면 힘이 될 거 같습니다

Ich hab ein langes Interview mit Max Schrems (@noybeu ) über den derzeitigen Angriff auf den europäischen Datenschutz geführt.

Er sagt: Nirgends wird der Datenschutz so zum Sündenbock für eigenes Versagen bei der Digitalisierung gemacht wie in Deutschland.

Und er erzählt, wie eine Reform der DSGVO seiner Meinung nach aussehen müsste, damit sie kleinere Akteure wirklich entlastet, während sie wirksamer gegen Datenkonzerne wird.

이제 C#, .NET에서도 아무런 외부 종속성 없이 곧바로 HWP 파일을 읽고 쓸 수 있게 되었습니다.

Java 버전의 hwplib을 .NET으로 AI 코드 어시스턴트의 도움을 받아 성공적으로 포팅한 HwpLibSharp 1.7.1-preview.1을 출시합니다.

많이 사용해보시고 피드백 주시면 감사하겠습니다!

We've been struggling with a JSR publishing issue for nearly two months now—@fedify/cli and @fedify/testing packages hang indefinitely during the server-side processing stage, blocking our releases. Strangely, the problem doesn't reproduce on a local JSR server at all.

We've opened a GitHub issue to track this: https://github.com/jsr-io/jsr/issues/1238.

Fedify has been a Deno-first, JSR-first project from the start, and we really want to keep it that way. If you've experienced similar issues or have any insights, we'd appreciate your input on the issue.

As someone who's been mass-mass-publishing to JSR since its early days, this has been really frustrating. I even set up a local JSR server to debug it, only to find that the problem simply doesn't exist locally. At this point I'm out of ideas—hoping the JSR team can take a look at the production environment.

Many people suggest that coal-fired power is on the rise in China. In real life, it's not anymore. Massive expansion of wind and solar capacities does eat into coal's share, whether or not new power plants come online.

Mozilla has a new CEO who:

- Has been at Mozilla for less than a year
- Has no prior open source experience (but well in "fintech" and "real estate")
- Has a MBA (aka "brainworm diploma")
- Is all-in on AI

That’s exactly the kind of bingo profile the whole community has been waiting for.

RED ALERT

U.S.-based independent contractors, like myself, are about to have our health care costs triple.

Many of us have two weeks to reinvent ourselves and this WILL harm Free and Open Source efforts.

At best, we will volunteer less. At worst, key contributors will cease participation.

I am happy to discuss strategies to preserve what so many have worked to hard to build.

If you are an author whose work is on the ACM DL, I'd like to strongly encourage you to check the accuracy of the AI Summary of your paper, and send feedback to the ACM on this feature and the inaccuracies in your summary. See more here: dl.acm.org/generative-ai/summa

Please boost, repost, and otherwise steal this post to reach other authors.

In long:

The ACM has begun rolling out "Digital Library Premium" features. A very notable one is AI Summaries of papers, which displace the author written abstract with an AI generated summary of the paper on the front page for the paper.

Of the several I've checked, they all contain subtle inaccuracies that would VERY EASILY mislead even experts familiar with the work.

This is a HUGE DISSERVICE TO SCIENCE. These summaries might appear to make science more accessible, but subtle errors introduced into the authors original text is the very opposite of making science more accessible. This will mislead rather than educate.

The ACM has a feature to send feedback on these summaries. Open your DOI, and look for the "Feedback" button on the right of the page, or the "Send Feedback" link in the footer. (You might need to disable ad-blockers, as this services uses mopinion.com)

The ACM is requesting this feedback, and it's important to let them know that such "hallucinations" are not solvable:

These tools were designed in consultation with a diverse group of Digital Library stakeholders and will continue to evolve as Artificial Intelligence advances. We are continuously tuning our Foundational Model to optimize readability and we conduct regular audits for hallucinations and other errors. We are very interested in your thoughts and suggestions- please leave them by clicking the "Feedback" button on the far right of this page. If you find a problem with a specific AI-generated summary, please return to that summary and click the Feedback there.

More aggressively, you might email dl-team@hq.acm.org (also linked in the footer).

Update 1: It seems the ACM no longer displaces the abstract with these summaries, so I can hope this feedback has been helpful in affecting change.

Update 2: It seems these summaries have been generated on papers whose license may forbid it, such as CC-BY-ND. If you have a restrictive license on your paper, you may check whether it’s being followed and send further feedback if not.

I don't see any problems with how Firefox implements AI yet, but the phrase ‘AI browser’ scares me

I am very disappointed with the focus on AI rather than significant improvements to the browser itself (I mean resource allocation)

blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/le

Still, I don't see any problems with Mozilla's current(!!!) approach, and I'm also scared by emotional social media users

First: Every product we build must give people agency in how it works. Privacy, data use, and AI must be clear and understandable. Controls must be simple. AI should always be a choice — something people can easily turn off. People should know why a feature works the way it does and what value they get from it.

Second: our business model must align with trust. We will grow through transparent monetization that people recognize and value. 

Third: Firefox will grow from a browser into a broader ecosystem of trusted software. Firefox will remain our anchor. It will evolve into a modern AI browser and support a portfolio of new and trusted software additions.
