As of the next version of Chrome, XSLT will be gated behind a flag.

Google have also asked for it to be removed from the standard [0].

Hey mate, I would just like to say that I wish they at least find it in their hearts to reward you for the value you have provided to them. Knowing cut throat american corps, I'm afraid the chances are nil. Even if a good amount for you is peanuts to them.

Which is why my position is GPL > MIT..

kome · 18 days ago
you're right about MIT vs GPL confusion. people brainwashed themselves into thinking MIT is "more open", because it's more permissive, but it lets others profit off your code without contributing back.

GPL makes them share or pay to relicense, since you own the copyright. with MIT, they don’t need to ask. MIT just benefits big corps. GPL better protects the open-source spirit, and paradoxically, the ownership of your work.

Interesting whether guys employ LLM to speed up development. Starting a new browser just like this would be very bold decision like 15 years ago, now seems like a reasonable thing to do actually.

they’re downvoting you, but the developer actually uses copilot a lot in his development videos. why are people so up in arms?

of course, he’s a very, very proficient developer and a browser specialist. he’s not just vibecoding, like you might be implying. but he also uses llms for development.

so lobbyists are trying for privatization in Norway huh. It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for em.

it's absolutely ridiculous! they're angry that people enjoy their life too much. wow...

and btw, i get the impression norway is spending their money pretty wisely, thinking long-term. and thinking with their own brain. not like the UAE, where they started thinking about the future too late, and mostly with brains hired from the west like McKinsey (who are just siphoning the wealth away into their pocket: see neom, etc).

On one hand I agree, one should approach issues as they come, but there's solutions that are hard to ignore such as the need for reusable fragments/components on different pages which already make a cry for dependencies.

Even admitting one wants to go with bare bone web components authoring and maintaining them is expensive, requires lit or something.

Thus, what's the solution? Some sort of templating? Again, you're bringing on dependencies.

honestly ctrl+c, ctrl+v of hand written html. and i'm cool as a cucumber.

this is something that my feeble European brain will never understand: why people in American start-up keeps getting scammed with pseudo "private" equities, stock options, that are not on a market, and therefore cannot be priced? equities surrounded by very obscure (or no) legislation, that if you get fired or decided to leave you cannot keep. it just make no sense but americans loves them.

I like good design as much as the next guy, but only when it does not impact information access. I use eww (emacs web wowser) and w3m sometimes and it's fascinating how much speed you get after stripping away the JS bloat.

js cult will never ever understand this. designers need the courage to work with html+css only.
