Because measurements confirm a homogeneous and isotopic universe. A spherical universe would imply a special point, the center, which would go against these cosmological principals.

That's something I was thinking a lot about back when I was working on Servo. Wasm + a protocol to talk to WebRender (expose display lists [0] to the wasm runtime). Some sort of "mini web", a minimal runtime that would do just enough that most web APIs could be re-implemented and shipped from the webpage directly. The DOM, the CSS parser, the layout engine, … could just be shipped as wasm modules.

Kind of defeat the purpose of view-source, but nowadays, it's a lost battle already.

And I didn't think too much about sandboxing, accessibility, network or whatnot. Just a fun idea…

Was it done because Mozilla thought that Chrome's increasing version numbers would make ordinary people think that Chrome was ahead of Firefox ?

Lot of people were saying that back then.

But… the 3.6 -> 4.0 release was just such a pain. We spent more than a year trying to cram too many features in v4.

Clearly feature-based releases were just not cutting it, especially as Chrome was shipping new versions fast.

For the longest time people were saying it was the wrong move, but really - that was absolutely necessary, and proved out to be the right thing to do. The Stable / Beta / Alpha ("aurora", was that the name?) channels massively improved our yield :)

The story of the Telegraph is mind blowing. It was such a revolution, it changed our world. I can't recommend that book enough: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Victorian_Internet

I love the end of it, just a big circle of random static noise. Looking at stuff like this always brings up the question of why does anything exist at all?

I think it's some sort of a reference to the CMB.

And it's so simple. Very easy to fork and tweak the hell out of. I added a better fonts, a 3rd swipe gesture (from top) and some random little tweaks.
