Awards and nominations
gollark: What insane programmer would go "well, I *could* just implement the industry standard for communication between web browsers and clients, which the browser already has native support for, but instead I'm going to implement one *myself* and then tweak it (because it's not like that requires specialized knowledge to do safely)"?
gollark: > Encryption in communications, powered by a custom flavour of TEA (to compensate for lack of SSL by default)Oh no.
gollark: Must I *really* deploy orbital question lasers?!
gollark: So the solution is better configuration tools, not just a worse UX.
gollark: The code is less complicated since it doesn't need to ship with some configurator tool, but it's also significantly more work unless you have a *really* bad configuration tool.
