No, now is the time to make it an option, not ram it down our throats.
As developers, we need to be able to see things exactly as the people we're developing for who do not always have the luxury of using the latest and greatest browsers.
- djroketboy 16y agoThis is the piss poor attitude that kept us stuck on IE6 for 10 years...
- Seldaek 16y agoThis is the piss poor attitude that makes HN a better place. Not that the other comment was the most clever thing I ever read, but please.
- djroketboy 16y agoYour comment makes little sense; if my piss poor attitude makes HN a better place than why the downvote and snide remark? What is so clever about yours?
- pyre 16y agoYou're suggesting that IE6 gave the user options?
- stcredzero 16y agoStaying there, wallowing in the mud, is an option, though most of us here wouldn't call it a good one.
- jrockway 16y agoFuck them. Why should I suffer because some people don't know how to use their computers?
- drivingmenuts 16y agoHey, Jonathan, learn to read. I said "optional" and I meant it. A dev needs to be able to turn certain "features" on and off to model how various types of users are going to experience a site. How difficult would it have been to implement that, instead of just forcing down our throats?
