Re:The web as a GUI toolkit on Thursday February 13, 2020 @09:32PM (#22323504)
i share your frustrations, especially as a retro and nojs fan.

today, for now, it's still mostly workable, with some fiddling, and yes, setting up a local web server.

I wrote a similar tool in Java, and it was effective at picking up minute and unintended visual changes when testing with many browsers.

My approach was to capture DOM element attributes and store them in a database, then compare snapshots.

If a person has no insurance and no money, do you think they should be denied treatment?
Re:Ask HN: How to commit properly when starting out a project? on Tuesday February 04, 2020 @07:20AM (#22234713)
start with readme. one commit per logical set of changes. just like later.
in my years of money work, i contributed to pollution, sugar addiction, advertising, the financial crisis, general environmental destruction, etc. i would have done more good sitting on my hands.
what have you done to move progress along? i'd bet dollars to donuts you have been too busy earning money doing useless shit like advertising, finance, or entertainment, a net negative for everyone, and jerking off to mainstream media on your own time. no offense. i did it too for about 15 years.

Deeming living beings a "problem" is specieist.

Rats spreading disease has been disproven.

They are one of the few species who still manage to survive in the concrete.

no forms and no https is needed.

you can make a new submission by putting it in the url.

anything not existing already becomes a new post.

thank you for responding.

it would mean a lot to me to be able to claim compatibility with serenity browser. maybe i,ll just try it myself, if i can figure it out.

already compatible with ncsa mosaic 1.0 ))

does your browser support forms?

i,m working on ultra compatible web forum system and curious if it would work...

even without form support, it is possible...

would you be interested in trying?

your objectives for the user study would be to read, vote, and comment.

link is in my profile. tia
