> magically became great in 2009 as was implied by the grandparent. I implied nothing, I asked you a question. Might have been a bit open ended but you made a claim that did not reflect with my reality. So I did a reality check. If there was a "magic" moment I will give chrome released late 2008 and firebug 1.4 released early 2009 the attribution for a turning point in webdev.

> I implied nothing X was horrible ten years ago -> but X' was actually released 10 years ago, what was horrible about X'? sorry, there is no way for me to interpret that other than implying that my statement was false. there were multiple magic moments, but js didn't stop being horrible on daily basis for another couple years. having chrome debugger or firebug didn't save you from having to support internet explorer, did it?

  > save you from having to support internet explorer, did it? I showed IT how we can keep firefox updated on all our machines using AD. External sites said best viewed with firefox and mentioned ie6/ie8 a steph-child. My solution not acceptable for everybody, but my employers were happy and I could continue being productive without worrying to much about ie.
