ARPD things
The arpd has a law-tracker again. You can find it at laws.arpd.zerr.cc or arpd-laws.zerr.cc if the first doesn't work.
The problem with schools.
Now, don't go running to respond with "oh! But that's AI's fault" no, AI may be contributing to the lack in critical thinking, but it's not the root cause. What is the root cause you ask? Rote memorization and just "memorize this equation", "tell me exactly when WWII started off the top of your head", and "write a story on this one specific topic which we've guided you to use instead of writing about something you find interesting " teaching. Memorization of facts teaches you nothing, not how to think, how to find a solution to a problem, nor accomplish your life goals, it's simply memorization, nothing more, nothing less. I could write more but I feel this rant has summarized the problem well enough for now. Until next shit-post - zeedith.

New, or legacy? Maybe both?
Nota bene, it's not an avant-garde idea by any means - but I truly believe a site should be usable from any browser. Sure, you can pioneer the use of a new JavaScript api, but contrarily it should still have some form-based fallback for people who can't use that standard; this may sound like basic backwards compatibility - but it's not. Whether the user is using the latest nightly release that fully supports async functions, webgpu, and web-assembly - or a decade old PS3, iPod touch, or even a antiquated text-only browser it should still WORK, you may not implement all the niceties the core functions, navigation, and general usability of your site should stay intact with forms, hyperlinks, or heck - even applets if it comes to it.
