So the concern of being able to cache the CSS (and delivering a smaller amount of data in subsequent requests) is now a non-factor when it comes to maximizing your page speed (or minimizing paint time, or however you want to describe it)?

Yet it remains, sadly, all too accurate. Newer tools like SASS and LESS help a little, but not enough.

I would lean towards 'no'. Adding letters to a common word is currently much less common than removing vowels or combining consonants, so will be slightly harder for people to remember. The exception might be if you have social cu

Helpful answer: Python is a programming language. It can be used to create scripts, making it a scripting language as well. More or less by definition, a scripting language is a programming language. In a practical sense, and as stonemetal

True enough. But all they'd have to memorize is one hard password (or even a pattern like 102938), and one modifier pattern based on the URL of the site. A simple example, using 102938 as the base password would be taking the main name part

My brains alone. Over the years I've developed a pattern I can remember easily, and apply another pattern to it based on the site or app's name. It's a simple math formula that changes the entire password instead of just applying a suffix o

There's a min()/max() polyfill at https://github.com/indyarmy/jquery.cssMinMax.plugin right now. Someone with more patience might be able to extend it to support calc() as well.

I seem to remember having a 30 minute bus ride to school through elementary school, and if I missed the bus, it was an hour's walk (though I could do it in about 10 minutes by bike if the swampy bit was mostly dry). I guess I'm fortunate th

In your example, if both developers are using TABs instead of spaces, why would it matter that one sees it as 5 spaces and the other as 8? It's still just a single TAB character either way. Plus, each developer has the freedom to choose how

I'm no Python expert, but the only reason I can think of is a combination of developer inertia and tradition. In most IDEs, a TAB can be displayed as any number of equivalent spaces (8 being the common indent size), so if I switch back and

The driver for not paying attention, same as now. A road painting might be a distraction, but it will only panic you if you see it at the last moment - which should only happen if you weren't watching where your speeding, multi-ton, flammab

One way might be to run the audio stream through a speech-to-text engine and parse the resulting transcript. A video recognition system could also be used to identify faces, landmarks and common objects.

A web developer needs to understand the entire chain of technology, from his text editor or IDE all the way to the browser. You don't need to be able to build a server from scratch (although you probably should be able to), but you need t

I would say that any good web developer should know how caching works - not just in browsers, but also proxies, firewalls, and every other link between your language parser (which may also cache) and the user's browser. It's "domain knowled

I always use the integer representation. I believe (no testing) that it is faster due to the lack of a conversion step, math is always in seconds, and as long as the number you store is based on UTC (or GMT), there are no timezone issues. F
