JS is the web's CO2, and we should start asking why the biggest polluters aren't cleaning up their respective acts. Loudly. Insistently. Even when that's uncomfortable.

You’re inventing a position I did not state. But equating the suffering of 7+bn people with any technology is ludicrous. I don’t know why I should state this, but I’m extremely not okay with the web going away.

Fair. If you have a better analogy, happy to adopt it. Scale of the challenge is similar and pollution dynamics have similar externality roots.

Yo alex, just fyi, the initial tweet looks kinda naive. This particularly tweet looks outright bad faith. JS proliferation will not cause a self-reinforcing spiral that will destroy, regardless of human input, the web, humanity, or all life on earth.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
