17. November, 2000 - I'm feeling grumpy
- Eleven reasons it's your fault that web-pages don't render correctly in browsers.
It's not just the browser-developers who are at fault, but also the people writing
crappy non-standards-compliant web-pages.
- On a related note, Give Me Pixels or Give Me Death!
I actually spend quite a bit of time on my web-pages making sure they're both
standards-compliant (which Manila totally precludes) and render
acceptably in all the browsers I can test. I'm apparently pretty rare in that,
given all the crap I see out there.
- Kuro5hin diaries have many of the features of weblogs. If I had more time, I'd
check them out more thoroughly. Maybe someone else can do it and write up
the experience? Oh, there is the small problem in that kuro5hin's HTML hangs
IE 5.5b1 on the Mac. Oh that.
- In more frustration with the universe,
Why is Apple treating it's current user base and OS Like a Redheaded Stepchild?
John Holmes wonders why Apple's abandoning its user base and targeting Mac
OS X at geeks. I find myself wondering the same thing.
The rule of any business is never alienate your base and that's just what
Apple is doing.
- Maybe the answer is blasphemous fusions of Cthulhu and ABBA?!?
It makes sense, really, in a twisted, perverted kind of way.
- Wanna give someone a cow? Heifer Project International can help if the person
is a random third-world resident. A friend of mine got their catalog, seemingly
at random in the mail. It kinda worked, I guess, since they made this list.
- The ''Revel in Rivalry'' Essay Challenge could win you a new TiVo.
