Thinking about VBScript.
I don't know if modern Web developers are aware how much of a struggle it was to get to the HTML5 stack we use today. There was a loooooooooot of bullshit to wade through. VBScript, ActiveX, Java applets, browser plugins, Flash. It was a fight every step of the way.

The Web Standards Project was instrumental in this work. Their efforts probably generated a trillion dollars in value for the planet and saved countless lives. Open standards fucking matter.

@evan I remember this one gaming site that uses a bunch of frames and a Java app in the top bar to control the whole rest of the frame.. and man.. getting that Java app to work and be signed and… >_<

@BreakingNerd I mean, that's a bad practice, sure, but it wasn't a commercial product by a single company foisted onto the Internet by gullible Web developers. Nobody had to download RealPlayer to get a table layout to work.

I wonder if @davew ever talks about some of the grotesque syndication products like PointCast and Castanet from the late 90s when he's discussing the history of RSS.

@davew TIL! Those are fascinating posts.

@davew TIL! Those are fascinating posts.
@davew I mean, TIL about the relationship of RSS to Pointcast. I already knew that you can look things up using the Google search engine, even if I don't always practice it.
Gli ultimi otto messaggi ricevuti dalla Federazione

They call options related to this "feature" "get a room", which somehow makes it more annoying.

La quantità di prime donne nel Fediverso mi ricordano le twitstar della prima ondata. Ne rido con il giusto distacco, inizio ad avere troppi capelli bianchi per stare dietro a certe stronzate.

OK, Discourse (the forum software, not "the discourse" about any current news) made me mad today, and that's not something that ever happens. I love Discourse, but this one is crazy.
I get mad when someone PMs me, and this damned forum software is telling people to do it behind my back. This is a support forum for an Open Source project, people are not allowed to ask for private help without paying for it. It is bonkers to recommend taking public conversations private.

Domani esce la nuova puntata. Lo scazzo di aver registrato per tempo e non essere riuscita a editare prima. Che settimane del bip.

@FraEmme enjoy

Il fatto che sia la più popolata non è necessariamente sintomo di qualità #mytwocents
