I agree with the spirit of this piece, but I think Wordle is a weird choice to try to highlight the point. I enjoy Wordle, but I'm certainly not going to die without it. Not to downplay Wardle, but, as xeromal pointed out, it's pretty easy to crank out a clone. Lots of people already have. If NYT paywalls it, I'll either stop playing or find or create a clone.

This font ships with a ligature-less version.

Tangential thought: if you're using a passphrase you're not going to ever type manually, for example something you're going to generate once and stick in a secret management system, why not build the passphrase using all possible UTF-8 characters as your corpus? Seems like restricting yourself to ASCII characters is just giving an advantage to those attempting to brute force the passphrase.

That's the exact sentence that made me give up on this... blog entry? Whatever this thing is?

Me, too. And I even want to quit my job. But this did not inspire me to do so.

For people like me who don't have time to watch the talk, what's the answer to the question posed on the blog post? "Why aren’t we using the Language Server Protocol (LSP) or Language Server Index Format (LSIF)?"

They'll get a rude awakening and realize OP is being nice and that's not standard operating procedure.

I love it. Honestly, it could be less professional.

It's a personal choice. I respect their choice.

Meh. I am a tech people, and I'd gladly go to prison if all the other tech people had to go, too.

I like this idea a lot, but I don't trust it to stick around. Mozilla is going to pull a Google and this will be a very painful thing to undo.
