Microsoft begs you to stop using Internet Explorer
In a blog post, Microsoft senior cybersecurity architect Chris Jackson said continuing to use Internet Explorer is racking up companies a ton of "technical debt." Essentially, by continuing to use IE, organizations are creating additional costs down the line by selecting the easiest, most convenient solution now rather than the approach that is best for the long term. Jackson laid out a scenario in which a company, choosing the easiest possible route since Internet Explorer 6, goes to make a webpage today and ends up using a 1999 implementation of web standards by default.

Recall that Cousin Chuck, despite coding in FORTRAN, having a Master's in Architecture from Harvard and having been his high school Valedictorian - yes, it's not just me, my whole entire extended family are smart guys and smart gals - teaches at a graduate school of architecture.
That school's entire website other than its homepage consist of nothing other than PDF documents. The Homepage just barely has enough markup and CSS to esthetically present the links to those Adobe Reader docs.
