what if I spent today doing some web dev stuff on Parallax

*starts up the local dev copy of the website*

*stares dumbly at it*

*goes back to hacker news for a while*

@anthracite Then you can read about JavaScript until your eyes are DRY, go back and add all hundred untested frameworks, and then cry as you rip them out again?

@chalcedony god no, I'd rather keep on dealing with the steaming pile of PHP that is my website. It's a big mess of Wordpress and assorted plugins and custom styles and it could probably be done much more elegantly but I'd have to spend weeks, if not more, getting everything looking good again.

@anthracite You could spend those weeks procrastinating on the actual work though! ^..^
