Guys what if we removed all these layers of thin clients, and instead programmed in the native instructions executed by the CPU, or a programming language that can be ``compiled'' to those instructions?

Am I geniouse or what!

XSLT^[1] and CSS^[2] both run in the browser and are Turing complete.

css is to wallpaper as javascript is to a breakfast machine.
I don't have any experience with XSLT but it's wiki page says: "XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) is a language for transforming XML documents into other XML documents"

So that's my first impression.

Sad, but true, for sheeple. Sheeple wanted more bloat, so we gave them shit. And guess what, they they love it so much, they sell their souls on it.

What an investment!

Sadly is as shitty and inconsistent as PHP.

I'll sick to my Common Lisp.

Stop comparing shittiness of perl and PHP as equivalent

Perl shittiness is like a dog shitting on the carpet. Annoying, but bearable. And easily cleaned.

PHP shittiness is like an elephant taking a dump in your living room.
