[bitwize]

Love: That any terminal anywhere that speaks VT100 -- including real DEC hardware from the 70s and 80s, "communications programs" for DOS or Windows, and modern ssh clients -- can interact with a program that also speaks VT100, and that program thereby can produce a clean, usable, if not elaborate UI on 8-bit hardware with KiB of RAM through to 64-bit hardware with GiB of RAM and beyond.

Hate: Mainly kids who've never seen or interacted with a dialup or other serial connection, let alone a real hardware terminal, who think that "the terminal" is some software construct which can (and therefore should) be thrown out and replaced with something based on the ergonomics of a 2017 Macintosh.
