Maybe I wasn't specific enough. I do not oppose any of these concepts or methods. But I tried to get the point across that you should not be bound to them to much. I can't remember the last site I made not using css. I will always use it. However, css is a part of what web developers can tie their hands with easily. I was pointing out; don't think the only good site is a site with all these technologies used.
And why is that? So people can screen scrap easier because you're content is xml parsable?
I lived by those rules not long ago; tableless design, css driven, no client side javascript events in the html (but put there by an initialization function), classnames never revealing structure information, separating structure classes with lay-out classes in different css, xhtml 1.1, etc.
Where did it get me? Not sure but sticking to all those rules sure costed me much more time then needed. And what for, because browers require that a page validates in a few years? Forget it, not in a decade, not in two.
Advice, stick to clean html that makes sense, think of your customers, think of your bandwith and don't let that w3c run your web development.
Really? What programming platform does that already for a long time? Ow, wait, you don't know, and you checked the AC box to make absolutely positive that you can troll without being harmed. You must be a smart fellow.
In ASP.NET you can even do cache invalidation when the database changes
That's right. Have you also tried ASP.NET 2.0 yet? (still in beta though). You don't have to do any extra works whatsoever. You can just say: Hey I want this data in the webapplication to be valid until that stored proc has a different resultset. No programming involved. It's really awesome.
I think young people are afraid of the marked flux. They saw the internet buble burst when they were in their high-school age. Allot of IT people had no jobs. Perhaps they choose job security.
Proprietary XML? Leave it to Microsoft to completely miss the whole damn point
Be damned if I know what proprietary has to do with it being humanly readable. Leave it to slashdot readers to think Xml has much to do with open source because you can "look at it".
One day a helicopter with a pilot and a Apple employee are flying through thick fog. Fuel is running low and the pilot lost the way to the helipad. Then, a building is visible and the pilot hovers close to it to 'ask' the way to the helipad. The Apple employee draws "Where Are We ?" on a big peace of paper and shows it to the people looking from the buildig at the helicopter. All the people previously in front of the building window discuss, design and implement a solution to the problem at hand, they have drawn the sentence "You are in a helicopter!" on an equally big peace of paper and press it against the window.
The Apple employee smiles, talks to the pilot and the fly in the correct direction and land safely on the helipad at the airport. The pilot asks the Apple employee: "Where did you know where to go when those people gave an answer which helped nothing?", "Well", the Apple employee replied, "I derived from the fact that their answer was a 100% true statement but didn't mean a damn thing that it was the Microsoft building, from there, it's only 5 minutes to the airport.".

I guess by this time they must be beta testing new processors for their web-servers ...

For slashdot, this businessplan doesn't need a 4th step, so remove the questionmark.
But then again, can you really blame them?
...can it withstand the impact of a jet airplane?
No, but because of it's bendability, it can actually dodge incomming plains.

Hahaha. You're right!
If only I had mod points.

Microsoft writes open source child porn buster
Next weeks news item: Microsoft claims open source supports child porn
Indeed, in line for ages, pulling their own Chuck Norris Texas Ranger lever.
Yeah, well... I'm gonna go build my own mars rover, with blackjack and hookers. In fact, forget the rover!
Wasn't multiplyer impossible because you couldn't share all the pedestrian information across players? How did they solve that?
Odd, I thought I was running that version for years.
Damn, I thought that after converting it to a string it would say something clever.
"Invalid length for a Base-64 char array" is all I got.

Indeed!
So what is it you're trying to say?

Remember how they set IniTech on fire ? Awful, awful people.
