If you want a website that works on enterprise desktops, you aren't using flexbox - you're using floats.

Is that still true? I recently joined a company whose primary audience is education, and our numbers say that less than 1% of our customers use browsers that don't support flexbox. Are public middle schools farther along the tech curve than "enterprise"? (Legitimately curious. It'd be pretty funny if so.)

For what it’s worth my project is about 2.5% no flexbox, which is too high to move over really.

The sticking point for enterprise-y things remains IE, since it only supports flexbox (buggily) as of IE11.

Though there's polyfills like flexibility out there, of course.

> Bootstrap V4 recently introduced spacing utility classes like m-t-1 (which translates to margin-top: 1rem!important), and we thought we'd expand this idea to more classes. Which is worse; when it's done as satire, or seriously?

When you do it as satire but everyone use your work seriously?

That's the best way to say "All of the above" in this case.

this is wonderful! finally, a clear, succinct way of writing CSS. This is what I've been waiting for since I wrote my first tags when I was eight.

that might have been tags

To be fair, 8-year-olds are exposed to a lot of closure.

"And the HTML tag lived happily ever after."
