You're new here, so a little advice: Don't ever mention anything outside the open source realm around here -- especially anything about Microsoft. HN'ers hate microsoft. pg writes articles about how Microsoft is dead. Hacker News is an environment that is not conducive to open discussion, only open source.


"HN'ers hate microsoft."

I think you're onto something there, although we could expand it into an even more general rule: "Anyone who has ever done any standards-compliant web development at all, ever, hates Microsoft".

Fair?


If, by "fair," you mean, "Will I get a lot of up votes?" then Yes.

If, by "fair," you mean, "Is what I just said true?" Then no.


I'm having a hard time believing you've tried to do the aforementioned (standards-based web programming). Having to include Microsoft browsers in that is like pulling teeth. Your OWN teeth. With no painkillers.
