🎂 Today, in 1993, NCSA Mosaic v1.0 was released. It arguably set the tone for what would be future browsers -- all of them, including @browsercompany's ARC as I'm sure @darinwf remembers, he who was at Netscape aka the other Mosaic. lol. 🙃.

Whoa! This is way cool.

R.I.P. Rick Cattell. He was long-time colleague at Sun, a fellow CMU CS alum, a comrade-in-arms in the fight for the freedom to reimplement APIs, and, most of all, a dear friend. I will miss him.

@mozumder @jensimmons As a veteran who spent more than 15 years on the HTML WG, this has been suggested many times, even by me, and there are good reasons it didn’t happen.

On behalf of every twitter user I would like to ask that we allow him to weasel out of this just like he's allowed to weasel out of everything else. Just this once, our interests are aligned.

@slightlylate The numbers don’t add up. Which human institution has the long term continuity of purpose to be entrusted with such an undertaking?

[Daniel Austin @daniel_b_austin]

@slightlylate It’s interesting to see how this argument has evolved over time - I remember arguing many of these points with Steve Thomas, then product manager for Netscape 4, on the steps of the Javits convention center in 1998. Actually I was arguing for JSSS.

33 years ago today, I submitted a proposal for a system called the World Wide Web.

I'd normally publish thoughts on the state of the web. But these are not normal times. Instead, @rosemaryleith & I ask you to join us to #StandWithUkraine however you can.

Lovely to see you again my friend. Come along with me to the next bend in 2022!

Ride my see-saw- this song, recorded when I was a child, remains true. I too left school with a first class pass. https://t.co/ikuN1P9zX4 Now I know 1&1 just ain’t true. I wanted, I want more from humanity.

@cdixon LoL is the only appropriate comment.

Holy bleep, I've lived under a rock. Visual Studio Code is incredibly good: fast and rich, and I've been hacking in it for a single day. Indefinitely postponing plans to get a license plate VI4EVR.
