What do you suppose we do about it? Like it or not, people use web browsers to access the Internet, and as long as web browsers render HTML and CSS, we have to use the tools we have.
- brandonbloom 13y agoMy complaint is that a lot of people like CSS/HTML/JS. Because they have learned it and gotten comfortable with it. They don't know/understand anything else and their identity and sense of self-worth is challenged if you speak ill of these technologies. That's a big problem. Pragmatically: I suppose that we embrace CSS/HTML/JS as object code. And I mean this in a much more dramatic way than CoffeeScript or SASS. This is finally starting to happen, thanks to browser support for things like source-maps. This is one reason I contribute to ClojureScript! Idealistically: We should be pushing for lower level platforms for code distribution and execution, as well as host platform integration. Portable Native Client and similar efforts shouldn't be so controversial.
