It's shit but, eh, that's the way the world turned out?

We are in agreement.

People have every right to be annoyed because the people who were entrusted with the concept of the web implemented it very badly.

Again, no disagreement. But in the meantime, implementing things is still my preferred activity to complaining.

Well, I agree. And asm.js etc are better than what we had before, so some praise should be allocated to them. But it is not innovative or elegant; it's a hack that takes us back to the state of the JVM more than a decade ago, and we're going to be paying the cost for it for some time. Hell, they can't even get the simplest possible thing - the syntax of HTML - right. So it will always anger me when I see web types touting their "innovation" etc. They are good at one thing: marketing to stupids.

Windows. The market has spoken. Let's just all be smart enough to not be defeated by the marketing to stupids.
