Looking at an item from This Week in Rust, I see an item about
http://rust-lang.org being converted from being served by something
called Heroku to being static.
The short description included the virtue:
Removes the complexity of managing a web server, which is unnecessary
to serve static content.
Wow, static web pages are so beastly simple that they seem to not need a
web server.
The whole World Wide Web was designed for static hypertext. But the
"let's make this extensible" afterthought of GET/POST/PUT ended up
eating both the web and neary all of RPC.
So now it is a great innovation to do static pages. I'm feeling old.
-kb, the Kent who is old.
