Should we remove XSLT from the web platform?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-12-01 12:37:13

What is the issue with the HTML Standard? XSLT v1.0, which all browsers adhere to, was standardized in 1999. In the meantime, XSLT has evolved to v2.0 and v3.0, adding features, and growing apart from the old version frozen into browsers. This lack of advancement, coupled with the rise of JavaScript libraries and frameworks that offer more flexible and powerful DOM manipulation, has led to a significant decline in the use of client-side XSLT. Its role within the web browser has been largely sup

Every time new iPhone models roll around, I ask myself two questions: Should I upgrade this year? And, should this be the year I finally make the jump to the larger iPhone Pro Max?

But as we get closer to the iPhone 17 announcements, I just might make the leap. Here's a rundown of some of the features rumored for the iPhone 17 Pro Max that I'm most curious about. Don't mis

US government agency drops Grok after MechaHitler backlash, report says

xAI apparently lost a government contract after a tweak to Grok's prompting triggered an antisemitic meltdown where the chatbot praised Hitler and declared itself MechaHitler last month. Despite the scandal, xAI announced that its products would soon be available for federal workers to purchase through the General Services Administration.

The 10 Best Movies Peacock Has to Offer

That said, the NBC Universal-owned streamer is jam-packed with must-watch movies of all types. And I think this is something more people should be talking about.
