My tweet about this, for what it's worth: On the same day Googlers protest retaliation by their own management, a Googler posts about how AMP, the astroturfed, Google-developed and mandated format is the cuddly "open" choice

I don’t know, I’ve been very critical of AMP both in terms of transparency [1] and conflicts of interest [2]. I still find the whole project dispiriting for several reasons: 1. Forking HTML: They’re now forming a defacto standards body on t

This is an interesting yet disturbing case of blackhat SEO and phishing, where the site owner hijacks the back button and sends visitors to fake sites where he can observe their behaviour. FTA: Here’s what I did: 1. User lands on my page (

I understand people can contribute with their eyes open; that's fine. People volunteer bug reports (for e.g.) to paid software all the time, open source or not. My criticism was actually of Google soliciting those contributions in the

Who conceived of AMP Stories? Who conceived of AMP in Email? What do they even have to do with "Accelerated Mobile Pages"? My irritation with AMP is also driven by the fact it's not usable for me. Reader mode is often broke

Hi HN. I wrote this teardown, in a slides-with-commentary format I've been working on. Feedback appreciated. If the title is too clickbait-y, dang or the mods might like to change it to just: Amazon Kindle Oasis Product Page Teardown [
