    And like in any game of minds, it goes into a guessing game: ”Are they thinking of X? They would never admit, but perhaps this and that can be interpreted as signal for X.” This is…

    At least not every engineer. I love using older machines and any chance to make things work in a hardware friendly way. I have to say, I appreciate the insane expertise browser eng…

    The way I read it, he is starting from the "cogs" premise (which may appeal to some people in some situations), and ends up defending rather humane sounding "local" principles. One…
