Meta: interesting that you think HN will exist in a recognizable form by 2028. 18 years ago, the web looked very different. I wonder what will we call "web" in 2028.

How do you mean? People still used browsers to make requests over http, didn't they?

Actually, I guess there was a lot of text-based interaction going on, come to think of it. Telnet, etc. Hm.

I still telnet. So much fun!

Wish gopher's were still around. I was thinking of using a gopher to do a blog with.
