I think it would be cool to have opengl capability in a browser; it just seems like a huge piece of poo poo right now but then again pretty much all technology is a piece of poo poo

it's kind of like the AI effect; as soon as the browser can do something new it's expected behavior that nobody thinks is special

Web optimization is handled by google they've optimized web performance so much that web code can run to great acclaim on the server, or even as part of your database

write verything in C, and what? you're still poo poo out of luck and don't have anything functional. you still need your web framework, and then frontend coded, and pretty soon you need like a dozen people with various expertise in 2 dozen languages and programming paradigms.

or you just use node + express + enyo, and anyone on your small dedicated team can debug and fix any part of your app stack.

"Oh god, bob is the only one who knows his lovely C optimized beyond comprehension code, and he's on vacation, so we're poo poo out of luck for 2 weeks while angry customer bang down our door." you may lose slight performance versus C, but shipping maintainable code faster is way more important than a 5% speed hit.

nope, just write everything in c

if your programmers can't write c, then get programmers who can write c

php is pretty much a nice, friendly wrapper around c that takes out all of the retarded unnecessary stuff (pointers), adds in modern advancements that you have to have to actually be considered a usable language (memory management, a good oo system, lots of ez web stuff). so i write c every day, but it's good, modern c.
