MDN's old frontend had: ejected Create React App, a Webpack config nobody wanted to touch, CSS so entangled fixing one component broke others, and dangerouslySetInnerHTML as a core pattern. So the team rebuilt it from scratch. Deep dive worth reading 👀 developer.mozilla.org/en-US/blog/...

Mozilla Foundation just opened applications for something I'm genuinely excited about. The Democracy x AI Cohort. 10 projects. $50k each. 12 months of support. But here's what makes this different: They're not funding ideas. They're funding working prototypes that are already being used.

Anthropic tested 52 developers learning a new Python library. Half used AI assistance, half coded by hand. The result? AI users scored 17% lower on post-task quizzes. That's nearly two letter grades. The biggest performance gap wasn't in basic recall. It was in debugging.

Flowchart outlines a study design with two groups: treatment with AI and control without, detailing task durations and quizzes.

Graphs show effects of AI assistance on coding speed and quiz scores. Comparisons highlight differences in task time and skill development.
