@variablepulserate Completely agree!
@joeo10 Ah, all the more reason for the buzzword to change. Can’t keep referencing a law, rather than some fuzzy, vaguely described concept, right?

@jws Indeed. I guess they needed a new buzzword to yell at board meetings and “AI” sounded flashy enough, after “CLOUD” lots its appeal.
@matigo Totally. I’ve always taken care that things should work as well as possible, on machines as far back as possible. This has led me to not make a whole lot of overly complicated web pages over the years, and instead relies on tried and tested methods. One foot in the past, if you will.
@matigo So you look at it more as a “here is what you have to have to make this make sense”, and all the fluff afterwards is pure bonus material? I kind of like that definition.
I guess I just call it graceful degradation out of habit. As you pointed out, that might just be looking at it from the wrong angle.
Food for thought!
@matigo True enough. I just don’t think yours or my definition will be anywhere near what the Linux on the desktop diehards have been raving about for the last two decades. 🤣
Funny how running EMACS isn’t the only thing people want to do on a computer, right?
@matigo If I only had the power… it would be glorious to behold! Although I somewhat fear your inevitable decline in mental health.
@peemee You you just reminded me that I need to get mine a permanent place to live, as my writing station.
