      Grok has the same embarrassing personality that its creator does. How can anyone take this model seriously? Dude, you can’t sit with us.

      My nail artist wanted to do sardine nails. I wanted to do beach towel nails. We were both correct. #CoderClaws

      The best part is the @firefox.com reasoning for denying updates to the React DevTools extension quoted our versioning policy that I helped write and can change at any time

      Sorry we haven’t updated React DevTools in Firefox for awhile. We’ve tried, but their extensions review team won’t let us use React source code in React DevTools because it’s considered third-party.
