Oh hey, if only html was text based.
Oh, wait, it is.
I'm rapidly developing grumpy old man habits about this gulf between "web" and "terminal". Imagine a world where we do `ls | grep .files.size` or something.
I mean, I get why we're here, but it feels so close to giving us all the power of html/css/etc while also having pipes and shells.
You know its funny...
