So you do agree that browser sniffing is a short-sighted method to test for browser capabities and that clj has been preaching on it since 07? I'm not judging

I'm not judging or anything, but sticking around on clj and trying to argument could have been very beneficial for both jQuery anc clj itself. There are ways of ignoring people in usenet, you know.
Also, Juriy, whom you cite in the book's preface, was a regular there long before his website really took off. That means you didn't dislike every member ;)
- pbiggar 14y agoHe just wrote a post about being attacked, and you attack him? (Perhaps I'm misreading your tone, but it seems to be really aggressive)
- duko2 14y agoLet's just stifle real discussion so we can be sure no aggressive statements are made and no one's feelings get hurt. The nannying influence of people like you is poisonous to a community. Your own comment is a veiled but difficult-to-analyse attack. Your weak observation asks us cow to your vision so that we will all respect one another and feel good about ourselves. You do not respect the technical aspect of this community which would value truth and quality discussion over feeling.
- gilini 14y agoI'm not attacking anyone (at least not on purpose), I'm just trying to make a point here. Resig's actions towards clj effectively turned his whole userbase against everyone and everything that was written in that newsgroup. Thousands of unexperienced js developers shunning great advice just because it came from someone Resig had a beef. I do believe that it had a negative effect on the javascript industry for a few years.
