Concur on themes. It is not an issue of aesthetics, but form following function. Sophisticated themes, such as the ones produced by professional UI designers, enhanced the usability of the browser. Effective themes visually separate the container (the browser) from its content.
For example the author of the 'FT deep dark' complete theme is unable to update his themes now. This will exclude willing professionals from contributing to FF.
Customer: "I need a nanofabricated, self-assembling, self-perpetuating 300 ft tall photo-voltaic tower. For free." Human Contractor: "Are you crazy? Even if that technology existed, it would cost a fortune." Nature: "Text me."
Didn't you programmers have this conversation 20 years ago with Java? I understand the performance gap between java and C is almost imperceptible now. Nevertheless, the reports of C's death remain exaggerated.
What exceptional talents or skills merit this adoration? They are ballast strapped to a seat in a rocket. If we are celebrating their "bravery" then shouldn't we instead honor the bravery of the first ones to go into space and prove it was safe: the dogs and monkeys with "the right stuff"?
Obviously the real accomplishment is due to the engineers who made it happen and sweated out every detail in design and test and every second in mission control. These people remain largely unknown. Instead society rewards busy body attention seekers who contribute little or nothing to the mission. This government sinecure sounds like a perfect fit for an astronaut: an important sounding administrative title and the chance to bask in the glory of other people's work.
Disclaimer: The preceding rant excludes astronauts with real science and engineering pedigrees who contribute real science and engineering work during and after their time in the space can.
I just spent the last hour trapped with you at the water cooler. You forgot to announce you also bike to work, brew your own terrible beer, only listen to vinyl, and are a minimalist, even though your residence looks like an OCD squirrel's nest.

Before Apple got the face recognition part working, the beta required striking specific 'poses' to unlock your phone. Not recommended on a subway.
The internet has ads?
Found a bug in the system time. Every day is like Sunday.
"I'm feeling depressed..."

On the positive side, the world has been spared having to interact with a program written by someone with the professionalism displayed.

They go to 11.
These people chose to be old. Nobody forced them. Hold people responsible for their decisions.
Damn nanny state.

It looks like you are trying to turn the surface of the earth into glass. Would you like help?
The U.S. nuclear fleet still runs on Microsoft Bob.
Leak different.
And only if it confirms the sun revolves around him. Any other conclusion: #FakeScience
Their eventual goal is a new CEO twice a day.
Dibs on the legs.
I had to beat off the throngs of adoring coeds with my slide rule.
Just ask your union... Oh.
Already the most hated company in America, is comcast trying to create some kind of hatred singularity?
