		anon22981 on Feb 12, 2024 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: It Can Be Done (2003) You do realize that good specifications and requirements do not necessarily mean trivial and easy implementation? Also, indeed, not all dev work is equally costly / hard / basic. It’s a crazy thought, but maybe that’s partially the reason why different devs can have different pay grades. :O

Yup, the basic HTML spec for example is pretty well defined by now. That really does not mean it is easy to implement it as a working browser.
