Or maybe, just maybe, they are very aware of their user base and that's the reason there is no version for Linux? Should I get upset that they don't have Lithuanian version of the app, and hence demonstrate a lack of concern/

Not everybody is the same. Caffeine has zero effect on my sleep: I often drink a cup of coffee before going to bed. Or have a can of Red Bull (I drink it for the taste, not for some energising properties which have no effect on me).

CSS is about presentation, not semantics, that's the point of it. And the whole point of separation of concerns. So sad to see stuff like http://csszengarden.com/ being forgotten and the whole web standards movement co

If anything is worse than tables for layout it is inline CSS for styling.

I doubt you understand what the word "semantically" means. I don't see how polluting markup with <table> (and tables were often nested), <tr> and <td> is any better, not to mention that often already existi

Once again, what so special about mobile? Somehow I don't see webtech proponents rallying for wining the desktop or winning the smartwatches. This obsession with winning the mobile is plain stupid. Instead of wasting time implementing
