We had a nice chat with Håkon Wium Lie, a prominent figure in the web industry. Håkon has made significant contributions as a standards activist and web pioneer. He served as the Chief Technology Officer of Opera Software from 1998 until the company was acquired by new owners in 2016. Håkon is most notably recognized for his work in the development of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) while collaborating with Tim Berners-Lee and Robert Cailliau at CERN in 1994.
