What is going on with this page? the design is unnecessarily overwhelming.
Why don't they just to an old style university website, pure-HTML with a clear list of their published work, etc.
Why does everything from Google these days need to be a childish design, crazy stuff moving around and unclear objective?
I kept it open for a minute or so, and that's it for me.

- rpdillon 3y agoCompletely agree. Miss when serious folks had plain pages focused on substance, like DJB's or Fabrice Bellard's pages. https://cr.yp.to/djb.html https://cr.yp.to/djb.html https://www.bellard.org/ https://www.bellard.org/
- sockaddr 3y agoIt's because two completely separate worlds (and users) happen to use the same technology to present things. There's the WWW serving information to people to use and then there's the parasitic Marketing Miasma and Self-flagulators setting up camp on top trying to manipulate and steal energy from the system and its participants. I'd actually like to see some kind of uncoupling of these two worlds. The commercial web and the web I go to for exploring knowledge shouldn't be the same.
