If you think I’m talking about an actual calculator app inside a web browser 🧮, I assure you, you are not understanding this simple concept.

I have already given examples of systems that calculate. “Calculators” they call them.

Mortgage calculators Interest calculators

… I could go on.

All button pushing in a non-JavaScript world requires a round trip to the server. Some people consider this slow and full with privacy concerns—and they are right.

At this point if you are still confused about what I’m saying… then you aren’t ever going to catch up. But please, feel free to continue arguing and embarrassing yourself.

I do not want to find myself in the International Court, accused of not getting down on Friday.

There are many different types of calculators. Please educate yourself on them, and consider your question silently to yourself. If you are not a full stack web developer, I feel further communication would be fruitless.

It’s not simple if you use laravel as a framework just to return calculator results ;)

Why would you want basic math in a web browser. Currency conversion? Shopping carts? Mortgage and interest? Dynamic inputs?

Basically nothing would be dynamic. Everything would require a round trip to the server.

Now, I think this “new web” would just simply not cater to those types of “dynamic” desires. Web design would be wildly different. Probably in a good way.

Yes. Absolutely. And I for one would like to see it. But as an entirely different system with all-new DNSs.

I would propose a system like HTMX (yes this uses JavaScript, but not if it was part of the browser itself) for interactive and partial support.

Would it be faster? Ehhh, with proper backend. But it wouldn’t eat your processor or be all janky.

But, in favor or JavaScript: you can’t make a simple calculator without JavaScript. (Please don’t link me to the crazy css hacks!!)

It’s as valid as me saying music peaked with Rebecca Black’s Friday.

Wow, bold Radiohead statement.

No one knows who you are in life or on the internet. No one is impressed by your memorized words.

Because using a big word alone isn’t good word usage.

But you didn’t compliment my clever wordplay, so poop on you!

People are more likely to get compliments on proper word play than simply being able to use a thesaurus and dictionary.

There’s nothing wrong with using “ecclesiastical” when it’s the right word. The problem starts when every sentence arrives dressed for high mass.

;)

Probably the lung cancer.

Depends on the game engine, and the game. But it’s usually not one big thing. Also keep in mind a lot of how a game engine imports the data could be doing quite a bit behind the scene. So, refer to the engine docs or communities.

I wish people got angry. They buy a gun and knee pads.
