Mozilla can't hold the line on DRM. but Mozilla has no trouble holding the line on the Javascript monopoly.

Scuse my ignorance, which JS monopoly? What is Mozilla doing?

I love mdn for my js reference needs, something to do with that?

I believe pekk's talking about not supporting any other client-side languages besides JavaScript (e.g. Dart, PNaCl, etc).

I was under the impression this is true of all browsers, don't all client-side languages like Dart or TypeScript compile to JS before they can be run?

No, Chrome has supported PNaCl natively since version 31. And they already have a fork of Chromium with a native Dart VM.
