I feel like wasm is the way out of that. Keep the legacy standards but move them to an open source wasm implementation that’s shared by all the browsers. This way making a new browser could be done without dealing with the mass of legacy an

If in America politicians are bought and paid for by large corporations, does it mean the country is no longer a democracy? Or is it still a democracy and the blame ultimately lies with voters who vote on corporate-backed candidates?

This is why it is perfectly fine to use an ad blocker by default, and perfectly fine for a website to refuse access with ad blockers enabled. At least then there’s a negotiation going on.

They could design it in a way that it operates on your data but they have no access to the data outside of these strictly defined operations. If that was a priority to solve, it would be solved. If you’re thinking of end to end encryption

IANAL, but as I understand contract law you can’t be expected to perform the contract if circumstances change too much (law of frustration). The developer here indicated they never expected to be providing support for a quarter century, and

It breaks down as soon as you have an offline scenario. You can only assume the server is authorative if there will not be network partitions or if writes are not accepted on the other side of the network partition (meaning on the client).

The best approach for a no build CSS approach I've found is using BEM notation to scope the CSS of each component, and then @import'ing the separate CSS files into a master stylesheet. When hosted over HTTP/2 those @imports a
