Mozilla on the coming version-100 apocalypse

Oh no, do you mean that "the web is universal" and "standards" are a lie? That developers "adapt" their website to devices instead of letting the browser doing it? What a world! This is "Father Christmas does not exist" all over again! T-T

Does it also mean that when I charge the laptop I'm using to write this onto the grid, my energy provider especially reduces voltage to 12V for me? The "charger" must be sending a special UA...

Oh hang on, that could explain very well how the dispenser in gas station magically "knows" when to stop! Oh everything makes sense now! My car must send a UA so that the dispenser can adapt itself! I suppose the kind of gas is also specially prepared for my car: there is no way my crappy car would really fancy my neighbour's Jaguar's favourite beverage...

Now that I think about it (as I'm taking notes), pens probably also implement something very similar... After all, writing on white paper is not the same as blue paper... or cardboard! There is no way there would be a universal way to write on all these with the same device if there is no such information exchange! How else do you expect a pen to work?!

I've been blinded for so long... but I've seen the light: standards and protocols are a lie since all devices/situations are different one can't expect to use the same abstract concept over all these peculiarities. After all Firefox on Linux, Osx and Windows don't use the same binary format! How could I expect they would interpret HTML, JS and CSS in the same way? They are not bit-to-bit identical to start with!

Now, more seriously, UAs need to die. I'm not saying they can just vanish tomorrow: I understand they currently have their use. However we should strive to make their use server-side obsolete. IE is dead, it is high time the last platform-specific issues are ironed out and with them the last use-cases for UAs.
