So what ? let's just appreciate a fellow hacker without pointing out the fact that this is JS only, shall we ? I am sure his intention of creating this website is not to "get found on search engines or have awesome SEO or work for people who have disabled JS".
- aryastark 13y agoThe point is the irony. The website is designed to give the impressing that this mock CLI is used for everything, but it can't be seen using w3m/lynx/links from a real CLI.
- shittyanalogy 13y agoIt is a real cli. What it's not is a unix shell.
- srpablo 13y agoSomeone else already pointed out the irony of glamorizing hacker identity and "living close to the metal," but the contents of that tribute being un-indexable or inaccessible from a CLI. For me, it's more about accessibility for users with screen readers or Braille, or non-English-speaking users who want to translate it. Don't fall into the common trap: you can like/appreciate something and still be critical of (all or parts of) it. I think the site is absolutely gorgeous and creative, but still a little irked that its presentation matters more than making it available to anyone but sighted English-speakers/readers with JavaScript enabled.
- gavinpc 13y agoI like the site. I was just responding to it on its own terms. And yes, the irony was irresistible.
