I have nothing but good things to say about the author of that piece.

Pah, amateur. I made two at once.

Well ok, my wife did most of it, but I was definitely a contributing maker.

Funny, isn't it. They ruin API access and overcharge for it, so everyone scrapes, and in trying to stop that they ruin the product for the users, without whom it's worth nothing.

Reddit, take note, this is you in 6 months.

I see you've played poundy, spoony before.

Thank, fixed.

> The author is British?

What ho, old bean. Yes, I am.

That's amazing.

I did consider suggesting replacing the semi-colon with "innit" at the end of each line, but it didn't really fit with the theme.

It's funny, I wrote it very much tongue-in-cheek of course, but as someone who grew up writing HTML and then CSS and using "color" all the time there's probably a little nugget of genuine pent-up irritation hidden in there somewhere.

It's morning here, but thankyou all the same.

No, it's a joke.
