  1. #HTML fun facts. The @WHATWG specification of HTML, at html.spec.whatwg.org/, with a print length of 743 DIN A4 pages, does not once say what “HTML” stands for. (It’s “HyperText Markup Language”, of course.)

      The latest @w3c edition of #HTML, by the way, at w3.org/TR/html52/, does expand “HTML” right in the opening paragraph. Still, I actually like it if the @WHATWG omission was intentional 😄
