    HTTP is a text based protocol, nobody is arguing websites are muds. Let's skip the strange purity tests and engage in good faith discussion.

    Why do talented engineers keep going to work for these companies and building it?

    This 100000x over. Nothing is worse than trying to productionize code coming from academics like this.
