I run beta. How can you tell if the test is active?
Mozilla has moved ahead with its cunning plan to split the browser window from the underlying content processing. First discussed in June, "Project Electrolysis" splits Firefox into a UI process and a content process.

Can't anybody write code that treats input data as, ah, data? Every byte can be 0 to 255. Deal with it.
Sandboxing isn't some new concept. It should be inherent in writing code. Data is data. Headers are also data. Check them. Check all input. Software gagging on input data is a basic Coder FAIL.
One wonders how an Arbitrary Waveform Generator ever makes it through the day without having a crisis... One wonders how Random.org makes it through the day, what with all that perfectly random data flowing through its tubes... They must be The Best Coders On Earth.
Grumble grumble grumble... Should have stuck with the Harvard architecture... Grumble grumble grumble...
