Kso can't be horrible
Kcheckmate
Kdotnet xml isnt horrible its old and sluggish
Kits the old grandma who cant go very fast anymore but people still respect
Ayeah when i said horrible i just meant manually reading it
but then
its better than most other xml readers i've seen so
but then
its better than most other xml readers i've seen so
Kthe actual reader/writer types are good just slow because of all the allocations
Kthe serialization part is real bad though
Kxlinq is also real good just slow too
Kefficient XML parsing is like basically impossible
KXML predates streaming
Kyeah
Athere's a time and a place for human readability vs efficiency though
Axml is an absolutely fantastic human-readable format when used properly
Awhen used improperly it is
Anot
Aand sadly a lot of xml is done improperly
Klooks at modern websites
Ayeah thats an example of improper usage
Khtml isnt xml but its close and much better as an example of doing it wrong lmao
Ayup
Kthe sad thing is people think thats an issue with html and not an issue with like, modern webdev practices
Kyou can write good human-readable html that works great
Ayeah simple html is actually quite nice
Aits just
Ksimple html like that is why i dont despise webdev lol
Asame
Kbecause i just never left that realm
Aalso same
Abut no
Aall websites must be reactjs slow runtime high memory usage pieces of garbage!!!1111
Aor something
Ai know very little about how modern webdev works cause i do not even want to expose myself to that mess
Keveryone got so focused on cutting out location changes/redirects that they forgot that the point of that was to cut down on web requests
ALOL was that really the point of it?
Athat is hilarious
Alast i checked these websites fire off absolutely shit tons of them
Kbecause caching was lacking
Ksomething something going to new page means re-loading all the assets and css etc thats bad and slow because its the mid-oughts and consumer internet is slow
Kat least thats always what i heard and learned
Apersonally i say fuck it to slow internet traffic users
Aeverything on every site i make reloads a new page
Ano ajax or js to be found
LaaaAAAAAAAAAAAA
so the game is happy if i do THIS, but if i do it the proper way (parsing the HTTP headers and returning back the actual substring), it connects, then IMMEDIATELY disconnects, like the value failed to validate or something

Ajust raw html and php and good ol redirects
Kit was like 2005-2008 everyone was slow internet users back then
Kajax itself isnt inherently bad but its gone way too far
KI'm aware the conversation has moved on but I believe this is a valid XML tag because I don't even know
syntax:
syntax:
STag ::= '<' Name (S Attribute)* S? '>'<ᾯ #x9 :='&&ᾙ' #xA #xD>Kalso ajax is a bad name imo but thats seperate
Lthe parsing code looks like its returning the right data
