- taskstrike 14y agoDid somebody spend too much time trying to be meta-funny?
- chris_wot 14y agoDoesn't seem to have spent that much time...
- cheshire137 14y agoCompletely useless and unfunny documentation.
- deleted 14y ago[deleted]
- tejaswiy 14y agoReally? Sarcasm and absurdity are great ways to talk about meta-anything.
- cheald 14y agoYou seem to have misplaced your sense of humor. There's nothing to document. It's commentary.
- chris_wot 14y agoI dunno. I think it's succinct and describes the software really well. More software should have documentation like this!
- tomg 14y agoIf anyone's wondering what the JS code in the .zip does: http://jsfiddle.net/N9TNy/ http://jsfiddle.net/N9TNy/
- SquareWheel 14y agoThanks, I was rather afraid to run that code.
- jayferd 14y agoWell technically you did, by opening the JSFiddle.
- ecaroth 14y agorubygem the lymphnode.. definitely got a chuckle out of that one!
- cdrxndr 14y agoLost it at shawarma! I would never have taken the time to do this, but pretty hilarious ...
- victork2 14y agoI give it that: It's a good satire of today's buzzwords clogging HN. I would add "Beautiful" to the bunch, since it's so overused.
- fredley 14y agoIt's also lacking "Magical"
- deweller 14y agoDon't forget "automagical"!
- TazeTSchnitzel 14y agoWhile we're sounding like Steve Jobs: It's also Amazing, Fastastic, Brilliant, Incredible, Wonderful, Great, Awesome, Extraordinary, Phenomenal, Unbelievably great, Gorgeous, Terrific, Super... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZS8HqOGTbA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZS8HqOGTbA
- pirateking 14y agos/Unbelievably great/Insanely great/ Edit: Watched the linked video. It appears the iPad was introduced as merely "unbelievably great" as opposed to "insanely great" like the Mac.
- TazeTSchnitzel 14y agoSomewhere out there, there must be a scale of Apple hyperbole. I wonder where "insanely great" ranks compared to "unbelievably great", "amazing" and "magical".
- rhizome 14y ago"Rich"
- atonse 14y ago
- juddlyon 14y agoFunny! The sad thing is that it isn't that far from a number of current sites who seem hell-bent on making you feel out-of-touch.
- fpp 14y agoand in the page source: _ _ \|/(_)_(_)\|/ @~ (o.o) ~@ /___( * )___\ NA NA / `U' \ NANA ( . ) NA !!! `>---<' _\ /_

- droob 14y agoFor those of you complaining about the quickstart up-and-running wiki tutorial, don't forget you can always read the related RFCs in the devchannel backgroup IRC log server dump.
- codesuela 14y agobrogrammers take note: this is only for rockstars
- unwiredben 14y agowon't someone think of the ninjas?
- Tloewald 14y agoNeeds a video demo of setting up a blog with it.
- humblepie 14y agoToo subtle :)
- blago 14y agoMeh, I did that 4 years ago. On a single weekend.
- derrida 14y agoI see this is written using BroScript idioms.
- bashzor 14y agoI don't see why this got a single upvote. Not only is it a fake, it doesn't even do anything cool.
- javajosh 14y agoWell, it's very funny, but it also points to an important architectural bottleneck for modern web applications. There's a veritable explosion of combinatorial front-end projects: 'projects' which merely exist because of the ad hoc way in which these individual technologies can be combined. They add nothing in and of themselves. For a traditional programmer, this is equivalent to a (very public) proliferation of "convenience" interfaces or methods, yielding one "convenience" method for every possible combination of real method calls. With such a proliferation, these methods cause a great deal more inconvenience then they alleviate, and the situation becomes absurd. (For some reason, Twitter's Boilerplate release has spawned an incredible number of mis-guided "me too" fork-projects that basically roll in <insert technology here> into the Boilerplate project and release it as new.) So, the serious message is that a) people need to stop with the combinatorial responsive html5 boilerplate bootstrap projects, and b) there's a real architectural problem that needs solving on the front-end of the web. Basically, we need a module system for HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. (And it's shocking that such a thing doesn't exist, apart from ad hoc, essentially proprietary solutions like WordPress themes.)
- SpiderX 14y agoYea, when I was a wee programmer, I made a "class" for socket.h which was just a wrapper that mapped things to a class, so when you wanted to create a socket connection, you just created an instance of that class, and start using it. It was pretty dumb, but I thought it was cool at the time. I should have overridden the << and >> operators but I was just happy that my "send" and "receive" worked. That was when I was 21, about twelve years ago. Now you see these kids doing something similar, but they have a website on which to place their experiments. I don't hate on them because I was there once myself, but I don't pay them much attention either.
- posabsolute 14y agoYea I agree with you, I think we have enough html7 shits popping on twitter, do we really need that kind of stuff on hackernews? ... It does not bring any interesting discussion and does not show anything useful.. Unfortunately I cannot downvote!
- knowtheory 14y agoI mean... maybe it's art, sure, but if it's satire in the aim of accomplishing something, i'm entirely unclear on what end this was made to pursue.
- th0ma5 14y agoMaybe it is just me, but it seems around the time that "responsive" became a term for layouts that adapt to screen resolution, the other term "reactive" which denotes UIs that represent some kind of live and changing data inline on the page was becoming a thing. It almost seems like that was the cool thing first and freaked out people, and now it is like there's an initiative to minimize "reactive" as a buzzword, and put the tamer "responsive" buzzword in its place... presumably while someone works on some kind of large "reactive" effort and then can announce their "big new thing" with their own term... anyway... i'm probably making things up :D
- nsoldiac 14y agoDocumentation reads: "Boom. Cross-universe compatible." ha!
- javajosh 14y agoNice, but I'd really wish it supported a half-way decent transpiled CSS language, like SASS, LESS, JESS, GUESS, or ASS, that gets auto transpilezipped with a simple 'ant ruby merge push' command.
- idonthack 14y agoASS is a subtitle format
- sashthebash 14y agoDon't forget to check out the issues on GitHub: https://github.com/impressivewebs/HTML9-Responsive-Boilerstrap-js/issues https://github.com/impressivewebs/HTML9-Responsive-Boilerstr...
- wavephorm 14y agoI bet most people upvoted before clicking the link.
- recursive 14y agoThis would be unnecessary if more people understood monads.
- ArekDymalski 14y agoCloud and SoLoMo are missing from the buzzword list. Anyway funny. Kinda reminds me: http://abstrusegoose.com/380 http://abstrusegoose.com/380
- bmaeser 14y agoawesome work. but it actually lacks of support for vapor.js https://github.com/madrobby/vapor.js https://github.com/madrobby/vapor.js
- conner_bw 14y agoI work for a company that pulls in five million dollars in sales a day. I upgraded all our servers to HTML9 Bootsauce and it broke everything. What the fuck?! Cross dressed in a unitard compatible my ass! We're losing money by the character I type! How do I revert?! Can't trust anything these days.
- mncolinlee 14y agoAll it would take is one comment from pg and this would be the hottest dotJS project on Github. Imagine Google adopting this! It could automagically generate Doodles using continuous integration and continuous deployment through Jenkins CI.
- no-espam 14y agoThese are getting a little stale. Vapor.js was amusing when it came out. It's like they say, you're beating a dead horse.
- robwgibbons 14y agoThis made me shoot my drink out of my nose
