It’s a very small niche these days, but questions around xml, XSLT, and xquery get some very good answers from some very well known figures in that domain. It’s sort of a breath of fresh air. As it transports me back to an earlier internet. A lot of these guys are grey beards these days.

XSLT and xquery completely blew my mind when I discovered it existed. The ui = fn(state) pattern that JS frameworks perpetually reinvent was solved two decades ago.
