You're new here, so a little advice: Don't ever mention anything outside the open source realm around here -- especially anything about Microsoft. HN'ers hate microsoft. pg writes articles about how Microsoft is dead. Hacker News is an environment that is not conducive to open discussion, only open source.
- sho 18y ago"HN'ers hate microsoft." I think you're onto something there, although we could expand it into an even more general rule: "Anyone who has ever done any standards-compliant web development at all, ever, hates Microsoft". Fair?
- pj 18y agoIf, by "fair," you mean, "Will I get a lot of up votes?" then Yes. If, by "fair," you mean, "Is what I just said true?" Then no.
- DanHulton 18y agoI'm having a hard time believing you've tried to do the aforementioned (standards-based web programming). Having to include Microsoft browsers in that is like pulling teeth. Your OWN teeth. With no painkillers.
