Wow, I knew this was there but hadn't opened the console before. Quite the throwback. ? ? ?! Neat. I'd never seen a tag either: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/ma...

You kids... I was the king of back in the day

Oh man... I'm having flashbacks to how badly that tag got abused...

Who needs HTML? Just create the layout in photoshop, export the whole thing to a flat image, and map all the links...

It's incredible how not much has changed in online pizza delivery. Fill in your name, address and phone # and we deliver your pizza, there got to be a better way.

There's a pizza, it comes from a place, and goes to your place. What more could there possibly be that wouldn't it more complicated?

I think it's pretty cool that they keep the original page working. I prefer it to the new page which has the modern day over-sized everything, over-sized text boxes, etc. It would be a nice site if they sized the widgets down to something that doesn't force me to scroll up and down constantly while building my pizza.

I'f that comment was sarcastic, I may have missed it... Does there have to be a better way? It's not a complex transaction and it seems like it's pretty much solved. Now they store your information for easier access.

Something like the Magic app[1] that was on HN a few weeks ago is a promising suggestion.
