What about trolling people that reaches for JavaScript to center text? :-)

Vertical centering usually requires weird hacks (either you know the height in advance and use negative margin, or use tables / display:table)

The part that annoyed me is the vertical centering is not preserved on window resize.

It can be done with flexbox now[1]. Which IE11 also supports[2] :)

Am I missing something? Why did this get even a single vote?

Beats me. Looking at the source doesn't help much. "I won't troll IE... because it's about time that I stopped."

"Trolling" doesn't even seem to make sense in this context. Have they been riling up IE by insulting it or intentionally playing dumb?

Seems dumb to flag this, but it's times like this that I do wish HN had a downvote on stories.

I don't get it. It looks and works the same in Chrome and IE.

People really don't have better things to do...

In Chrome I get comic sans and in IE I get a cursive font. Is that the joke?
