In spite of all the hate IE gets, I have to concede that their developers are rather decent people. I'm sure the cake [1] they sent to Mozilla was a gesture of honest goodwill.

Of course. Some Microsoft people may even frequent HN. ;)


We do. :D


Yeah, the ";)" was supposed to be a hint: I'm interning there this summer.


I interned there last summer. You're going to have a blast.

What team are you going to be on?


SQL Server. It sounds great -- I can't wait.


Cool. :) I was on the WAC team, working on the Word Viewer web app. I know a couple people who are going to be there this summer - can put you in touch with them if you like.


Yeah, I'm pretty sure Microsoft is full of great people, it's just that crazy CEO of theirs.


And that damn web browser they make.

(I make a web site. It works great in every browser I try... until I open it in Internet Explorer, where it's all messed up. This is not an isolated incident.)


The instances where you don't have to implement IE workarounds are the isolated incidents, in my experience.
