Why is this the top-most comment when the user obviously didn’t know how to use HTMX?

Long-winded article. I’ll give you my take: people like their phones. They identity with them. It’s a singular piece of tech that isn’t cumbersome. It does multiple things well and sometimes at once. Why would I want a duplicity of devices to do similar things at the cost of more stuff?! Answer me that riddle.

I like the first part of your username. Not so much the latter.

Google spearheaded this and yet their browser only has experimental support? While Safari shipped it in 2023? At least, that’s how I’m reading this.

There are nuggets in this article that people enamored and, dare I say, crippled by their dependent use of AI and note-taking methods will never want to admit — or can’t — about themselves.

It’s all roses. AI is what exactly what the world needed. How can we not be grateful.
