On: Ask N.YC: How hard should we work to support those who don't use cookies or javascript?

@rw:

It seems some people disagree with your sentiment.

With a mouse (to downmod) and no keyboard (to enter the discussion), I'd just assume they hold a lot of contempt for you blocking everyone's wonderful javascript.

@topic:

I agree with Hexstream above. It's still important to simply not rely on the javascript, css, etc. Make the logic and interface simple and upgrade to "bells and whistles" mode if additional features are available on the client.

I think the downmod was to say that the statement "javascript 's foremost use is for ads" was wrong, since clearly javascript is used for a lot more.
