Web engine development is more costly than even OS development, we’re talking costs that often run into the hundreds of millions per year

And then there are heroes we don't deserve, but sorely need: git.sr.ht/~bptato/chawan.

After all they’ve done to ensure their users’ privacy, I would be genuinely shocked if they capitulate to just this one country.

Of course they won't.

The problem happens when other countries start following the precedent and too many of them make the same ask. There are parallel processes in the UK, and at the EU level.

No, you confess and repent.

Tl;dr Swedes and Finns care less than Brits

Perhaps. But without diving in, I'd bet it's the other way around: there is something fishy about the claim, and it's illegal to make there.

Originally called Phoenix, since it was Netscape Navigator, reborn.

But Phoenix Technologies disliked that, so they renamed to a descriptive name for the same immortal bird -- Firebird.

The Firebird database people would have none of that, so after a few-months gap between 0.x releases, they found the closest thing they possibly could which was not trademarked. It had nothing to do with the original name idea, fire being a weak link.

And we've been stuck with that stupid name for two decades.

This is lucky for you, I have not been so lucky and had to be forced to train people that did not have the ability to do the job but were hired solely based on other factors even though their were better candidates.

The thumb-twiddling industry is on a hiring spree?

Hacker news people full of "but iPhone is cheaper on TCO"

No, it's not. I buy a good Android, replace the software with a Free ROM, and ride it more than half a decade, updates and all.

Putting your own OS is just an unbeatable feature.
