[00:02:15] <aristarchus> Is there a governance committee meeting scheduled for this Wednesday?
[00:03:24] <ted-ious> I think it's an a modern version of gopher.
[00:03:38] <ted-ious> For people who think the web is too bloated. :)

[00:27:11] <drussell> Yeah, I think it's an attempt to return to a simpler protocol, like HTTP was intended to be before all the bloatrot set in.
[00:48:30] <chromas> why not just use http but without webscale 3.11 for workgroups?
[00:48:57] <chromas> no reason you can't make a website full of pdfs or markdown or whatever
[00:49:03] <ted-ious> That's a great question and I have no idea. :)
[00:49:11] <chromas> or ftp and html
[00:50:12] <chromas> I wonder what it would take to integrate another interpreter into a browser besides js. not sure if they still support plugins at all
[00:52:30] <ted-ious> Which one would you vote for?
[00:52:34] <ted-ious> D?
[00:57:07] <chromas> all
[00:57:41] <chromas> <script type=""> implies possibility of anything
[00:58:01] <chromas> maybe python or perl or c++20
[00:59:15] <chromas> I recently discovered D has been forked. Not much actual action aside from some mental masturbation though
[01:12:43] <ted-ious> Wouldn't replacing javascript with python just mean that you'd have a different language to get annoyed about when trying to deal with the browser dom?
[01:28:04] <chromas> but at least it's a better language
[01:43:03] <ted-ious> Honestly if we're going to have to change the whole web we might as well write a new browser from scratch too.
[01:43:21] <ted-ious> And don't let some guy make the new language in 2 weeks. :)
