To this day I think the bar for what’s considered a ‘hack’ is much lower in the world of front end. We’re working with what can be considered old technology. While new, awesome things are getting added every single day we still fall victim to some legacy implementations we just can’t get around.

Case in point: the aforelinked article. Clever solutions like these are what make the front end both thrilling and frustrating for so many people.

I like my job.
