Karl Dubost: The lucky day of me falling hard professionally
Let me tell you a story…
In my first professional year (~1995/1996) as a ~~web developer~~, well webmaster at that time, I was working on the BNP website (around 300 html files). Yes, the BNP French bank website, except at that time it was only a couple of hundreds static web pages.
The client asked us to fix the footer of all these html files. The job was assigned to me.
I open the local FTP folders with all the files for the site and started to look at the HTML and noticed a simple search and replace would not do it.
Let's use Regex for parsing/fixing HTML. Haha.

The protocol is standardized by the W3C and consists of two separate specifications: WebDriver classic (HTTP) and the new WebDriver BiDi (Bi-Directional).
This newsletter gives an overview of the work we’ve done as part of the Firefox 117 release cycle
