Whew, I found this piece to be quite confusing to read, requiring lots of knowledge of discussions and unrelated trivia that I hadn't come across before. Maybe the author should try to explain his examples a bit more in detail for the rest of us next time.

Yes, you need to know what is is. I didn't but found the second last explanation here helpful: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27434431/what-is-html-is...

On the other hand, HN has become a little boring recently, with everything fed to the user via titles. There's a place for playfully obscure, and the author isn't writing for HN anyway. They can write whatever they want.

The pictures were fun, though.
