One thing doesn't prevent the other, yet most Web 3D is hardly any better than Flash games, with worse tooling.

What a joke of challenge, there is still no browser 3D game that is a match to Infinity Blade, that Apple used to demo OpenGL ES 3.0 hardware in 2011. Anyone serious about 3D gaming on the Web has to do streaming.

99% of the time those sites could be plain HTML and CSS, but apparently new generations don't even know how to do that, out of programming bootcamps.

Better than Bitkeeper maybe. I also have used plenty of SCM systems since mid-90's.

Although I seldom use Linux as main desktop, LWN is one of the services I keep subscribing to.

He also doesn't like C++, that was the main reason, note that Plan 9 and Inferno contrary to UNIX, also don't do C++.

They have become the default, before PC clones, everyone had their own hardware standards.

They were general purpose computing for most of us, and much better experience.

In the 70's and 80's, they were called home computers.

It was certainly a mistake to base the original IBM PC hardware design in easily obtained electronics, and hope the BIOS copyright would be enough to hold out clones, unlike previous IBM hardware.

That is how Compaq managed to avoid the copyright lawsuit, afterwards there were enough options, besides the failed PS/2 attempt, OS/2, or even forcing a new hardware stack.
