That was over a decade ago, things change.<p>Firefox is more relevant now than it was before, I welcome their efforts to change with the times.<p>They are taking massive risks now, simultaneously developing an entirely new programming language (Rust) and building an entirely new browser engine on it (Servo) is ambitious. It is clearly self-evident that it has paid off.<p>There is nothing wrong with node.js programmers, your implication that they&#x27;re inferior is a broad-sweeping and baseless generalization.<p>The grey hairs are most certainly still around, and they&#x27;re most definitely well-respected. Rust&#x27;s C++ roots is evidence of this.<p>Mozilla is flourishing, that cannot be denied.<p>Firefox is a normal open source project, Mozilla receive&#x27;s contributions from around the globe.<p>The hacker ethic isn&#x27;t gone, it matured into something better.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;mozilla&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;mozilla&#x2F;</a>
