Bloated specs with tons of historical cruft and edge cases. And a renderer needs to support it all. The problem stems from trying to use something designed to share documents with some custom styling as a universal GUI for applications ins

Same impression when returning in Japan at the beginning of month after a stay in Taiwan. In Taiwan something like 99% of people outside in bigs cities were wearing masks. In Japan only the usual 20%. However, things are starting to change?

It’s 20 years, not a decade. It’s like Sir TBL felt bad about not being able to capitalize more on its first invention (the Web), then spend the remaining of its life trying to reinvent it with a technology stack that got epsilon adoption.
