On a microcontroller stuffed into the shell of a pregnancy test.

and to clarify what I'm doing here:
This is a replacement display AND a replacement microcontroller. I'm not using any of the original tester other than the shell.

It's a measure of search engine activity.

More accuratly, results returned for +" programming", not searches. https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-in...

Not even amount of code.

It is important to note that the TIOBE index is not about the best programming language or the language in which most lines of code have been written.

But even if it did, it can't reflect all the private code out there.

If on a desktop browser, get a redirector extension: https://einaregilsson.com/redi... and use something like this:

  • Pattern: https?://(?:www\.)?youtube.com/shorts/([^/]*) (regex)
  • Rediirect to: https://youtube.com/watch?v=$1

The desktop version still uses lazy-loading, but there's more reasons to dislike the Shorts UI.

And where do the standards come from? Moses is long time gone. The C in W3C doesn't stand for a Council of sages atop a mountain, detached from worldly interests.

Anyway you were complaining about standards changing. What happens when they don't change? Would you be reading this in HTML 1.0x (whatever was first published), or would this page be âoeBest viewed with Chromeâ?
