IE6/7 have left so many mental scars on developers over the years that I think "IE" will evoke those two for developers for many years after it stops being objectively worse.
- ryan-allen 15y agoI find this comparison offensive and juvenile.
- ericd 15y agoI wasn't talking about the comparison, just that the post clearly was clearly referring to the bad old versions rather than the new, more compliant IE. But while we're on the topic, jokes are often meant to be logically absurd but ring sort of true. For a lot of developers, IE has had more of a direct, negative impact on them than all of those dictators combined, so it kind of feels right, even if it shouldn't. You shouldn't take it so seriously. People getting offended by jokes is offensive to me, because it makes for a more humorless world.
