The guy who ignores all established standards (do one thing well) in order to reinvent a square wheel, now works for the company, that, wait a minute, has been well known for ignoring all established standards (IE box model anyone?). Yup, he's going to do just fine!
- dmitriid 4y ago> ignoring all established standards (IE box model anyone?) Funny you should mention that. IE box model was correct from the practical point of view, and the standard was wrong. Today every single CSS reset forces IE box model with box-sizing: border-box;
- hbogert 4y agoWhich thing did he make that doesn't do one thing well? Is this the hate on the systemd repo which houses multiple applications?
- hdjjhhvvhga 4y ago> IE box model anyone There used to be a (long) time where everybody ignored web standards, and each browser had their own extensions. But you are right: it was Microsoft who tried to introduce complete vendor lock-in with ActiveX controls - I couldn't use my private banking without it, for example. And it wasn't that long time ago.
