What ever happened to c2.com ?
It used to be one of the best sites on the internet. Now I cannot even read it with and ad blocker.

1) curl -s http://c2.com/wiki/remodel/pages/WhatIsNull | jq -r .text
or:
2) Go to http://c2.com/wiki/remodel/pages/WhatIsNull
In the web console :
document.body.textContent = JSON.parse(document.body.textContent).text
document.body.style.whiteSpace = "pre-wrap"
I hope one day we will have some kind of standardized markup language that allows presenting text in a browser in a plug and play way… text/plain for the most basic stuff would do, and we could add some kind of tags to have stuff like italic / bold parts and titles, and links, too.
You should mark this as sarcasm or some young "data architects" will not understand your point here.

Forming the committee does not need script validation.
People put "no ads" signs on their mail boxes. Do you really think they'd see such a thing as a feature? Crazy stuff, no browser on their right mind would shoot themselves such a bullet in the foot. People would immediately turn to the competition, should such a thing happen.
What next? Document viewers weighting several megabytes? Containing a full-fledged garbage collector?
I'd say let's keep things simple. People like simplicity, and stuff that works and that does not freeze or crash every other hour.
But it's absolutely essential that the styling language not be turing equivalent! That would be a nightmare. So it must have a minimalist design.
That’s absurd.
