Marc had a dedication and a natural talent for all that.
It made him a great teacher, a valuable inspiration, a humble but essential pillar of countless scenes and communities.

The best revenge against his premature passing away is to continue his legacy.
Be equally generous. Be more like Marc.
Even if you never met him.

Que Mozilla soit en si mauvaise posture qu'ils doivent se séparer d'une partie de leurs salariés est la mauvaise nouvelle du mois pour le Web.

Je ne sais pas si tout le monde mesure l'imperieuse nécessité de ce projet indépendant.

Mozilla just laid off 70 fantastic people. If you can help them - open positions, offering helpful conversations and references, anything else - please say so.

Use #MozillaLifeboat as an umbrella tag for easy finding. (It's already flowing on the birdsite.)

If you've been affected, I'm happy to chat directly. Also have some open positions (see rest of this thread). But doesn't have to be today - take time to recover if you can.

Most of all: thank you folks for making the web better.

C'est pourquoi, lorsqu'on veut avoir une action politique, voter est si désespérant.
