Quality code ages well. Old is not an excuse for crappy or slow, neither you can so easily disclaim your own code. Would you take fashion advices from someone

  Mind you, I know builders who still have unfinished jobs around their house. Car mechanics whose own vehicle could use work. Electricians etc... I think valid advice is still valid, regardless of whether they practice what they preach. I also know how little time I have to work on my own sites with various project work I've got on...

    Yes, but when great web developers on HN are a dime a dozen, I don't want to waste time on content that isn't polished.

      The biggest irony: the HN site itself can hardly be considered 'polished'. I mean it still uses the <center> tag!

        But it displays fine on the iPhone (and probably on many other devices and browsers). So, for its purpose it functions reasonably well.
