All of the technologies that form the foundation of the WWW really suck. HTML blows, Ajax blows, Javascript/ECMAscript blows, XML blows, all browsers blow, Flash sucks, ActiveX sucks HARD, it *all* sucks. This is the future? A bunch of bloated technologies, initially meant to insure proper delivery of decorated textual information, forced and twisted into a multimedia landscape?
ITT we redesign the WWW.

I'd put one suck for CSS (and, because JS/HTML both suck more, raise it to two sucks for JavaScript and three for HTML). Reason being, why does CSS bother with having a brace-based syntax and yet NOT have some way to nest elements? It'd be far more natural to write
.balls {
font-size: small;
color: red;
#mine {
font-size: bigger;
+ #yours {
spacing: 1em;
}
}
}
instead of some repetitive mess like
.balls {
font-size: small;
color: red;
}
.balls #mine {
font-size: bigger;
}
.balls #mine + .balls #yours {
spacing: 1em;
}
