- nativeit 1y agoA functioning URL is impressive?
- PessimalDecimal 1y agoMany browsers, especially Chrome, have abstracted away direct interaction with URLs. Would you also consider that good?
- zdragnar 1y agoYou can still do that if you want to. Most people don't. Back before I got a cell phone, I had many many phone numbers memorized. Once I got a cell phone with a contacts list, I just stopped. Now I have my parents and my wife's phone numbers memorized, and that's it. URLs are much the same. On most websites, if I can see the domain is the one that I expect to be on, that's all I really care about. There's a few pages that I interact with the URL directly, but it's a minority.
- jebarker 1y agoYou can serve web pages and render them in browsers all written in C. I'll concede that that's a useful level of abstraction over assembly.
