Personnel

gollark: This doesn't even make sense. What is it DOING?
gollark: MY EYES! MY EYES!
gollark: I'm not really disagreeing as such with use of HTMLy apps, just with the ridiculously bloated thing they became.
gollark: No it's not. Who cares about "runtime" or "not wasting billions of CPU cycles", nobody should have to actually learn a GUI toolkit to make desktop apps! The only way forward is to bundle an entire instance of a browser with every single desktop app!
gollark: A programmer *optimizing*? In 2018? Unnatural.
