Here we identify harmful inner-platform/softcoding effects.
- web browsers
- office software with VBA or similar
- emacs/jEdit/Eclipse
- the whole UNIX userland
- big CMS that rebuild entity/key-value systems in their database

What else do you have, /g/?

SAP.
It's shit. It's horrible. I don't understand people who get into it.

Good catch.
>It's shit. It's horrible. I don't understand people who get into it.
As in for those who buy it: Those are managers and don't have to use it.
As in for those who program that stuff, money is nice I guess.

>>61821482
I was being told to get into it because the money is good. I just shudder at the thought.

>I just shudder at the thought.
You might think so, but judging from the analysis most other software is shit, too, so it's just another flavor.
Well, not liking ERP is another problem, I guess.

>>61821006
Web browsers aren't intrinsically harmful. Letting NeXTStep lovers and corporate weenies design them is.
>>
>>61821674
Yeah, in some parallel universe there might have been good web browsers at one point.
Here however web browsers have always been a cesspool from day one where drunkards invented crippled img and blink tags.
>>
Web browsers at this point truly are operating systems which run applications over the network. They're like really shit thin clients. It's the biggest clusterfuck of the current technology era.

Animated text effects I understand, but what's crippled about img?

>>61821006
All frameworks are inner platforms. I guess we're fucked.

Some small details, but mostly I put that in here because it was invented when Andreesen was drunk again.
As for technical reasons, it should for example have included a list of file formats the browser had to support. We could have had mng and other proper image file formats 16 years ago.

Also stuff about different sizes and preview thumbnails etc. Some of those things are solved now.

Kek, point. Required file formats didn't work out so smoothly well for video, though. I wish there were a good, comprehensive way to query what a browser supports or pretends to support, that didn't enable fingerprinting.
Personally I wish they'd deprecate any document format outside of strict-XML markup, and by deprecate I mean burn with holy fire.

for the money dude
sap consultants can drink cocaine smoothies for breakfast every day.

This, and for any website that comes malformed the browser should display:
>Unfortunately this page was malformed, so we couldn't display it.
>Hope you don't plan to conduct business in any form with the owners of this homepage.
>Since making websites is fairly easy, imagine what else they will fuck up.

>>61822344
this, I should have gone this way

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
