Duct tape on top of abstractions on top of duct tape in order to make a document platform behave like an application platform. Isn't it time to just replace web browsers with something that doesn't suck?

It's not the browsers that suck, it's what companies like Facebook do with browsers that sucks. And then all the other non-thinking middle managers in other companies who want to copy these terrible things because they're incapable of leadership.




> It's not the browsers that suck,

They're great at rendering documents, yep. Applications delivery platform? Not so much, not until you tack a shitty language on top of it and then a bunch of crap on top of that language to make it remotely useful....
