I think it is a bit extreme and voluntarily biased, but I enjoyed the
reading, both the UI part and the math part.
I agree that most calculators are broken: that's why I produced mine. I
just addressed many o his complaints in a different way.
I disagree with certain conclusions though and also the extreme
complexity he went through: WebKit and all the related stuff to make a
Calculator? You know you went too far... and he knows himself how
fragile is monstrum is.
