That's definitely 1999-era HTML and layout, except for the "This is an archived page" header, which is the only CSS on the page. The rest is all well-known tricks from the time: tables, image maps, a few embedded images. He

Heh, I could almost tell that story. We had a bug in a React app that started when a new Chrome release came out. I boiled it down to a small piece of JS that V8 was clearly misinterpreting and which looked like it might be memory corrupt

Thanks for your perspective, very interesting. I'm really surprised that all it takes to be declared qualified is the signature of someone else who's qualified. That leaves lots of room for slippage and social pressure, like the d

By "majority" he may have meant majority of Linux distributions, not majority of Linux users. There are a ton of distributions derived from Debian: https://wiki.debian.org/Derivatives/Census . All of them w

I really wanted Bourdain to become a salty, profligate old man, throwing barbs from behind a stiff drink and an ever-craggier face. Sad news.

Here we go. We'll now have the first traffic fatality trial where it's not drivers-trying-drivers but people-trying-a-megacorp. (Disclaimer: I'm a bike advocate, so I may have a different perspective on some of this than mos

Perl 6 feels like what happens when your answer to all bike-shedding questions is "both!" and your answer to the follow-up question "how will we tell them apart?" is "we'll add a secret codeword." Still, I

That's not Linus' position. The "API contract" for the kernel is "we don't break userspace code," not "we don't break userspace code that follows the specs." He would bounce (and flame) t

Sort of. Strict null checking now lets you distinguish between the types Foo[] and (Foo | undefined)[]. The first will type with the assumption that there are no out of bounds indices (which, as you say, could be wrong). The second will

The TypeScript team's philosophy* is that they want to incorporate features that have either ~0% or ~100% chance of making it into ES. Types they put in the 0% bucket. Once a feature is near 100%, they'll include it. But if it&#

BTW if you're curious, browser DOM operations have advanced now to the point that doing work in dom fragments is often slower than just doing it right in the main tree. See, for instance, one of the recent optimizations to the vanilla

If I understand what Glimmer is proposing, they want to slice a long update process into a set of batches, so that they can pause in the middle to let the browser render a frame. My points were that a) they don't know how long it will

Yeah, I was just looking at the Glimmer opcodes format. I'm a bit surprised it's an array of arrays, rather than a flattened array. It looks like it goes `[[1,"id","bar"],[2,<other param>],...]` rather

For 1) and 2), some frameworks solve the size issue by creating functions for the basic DOM ops, which then get minimized to single character names in production. So in your example, there might be a setNodeAttribute(node, name, val) funct

Ah, my bad. Are you aware of any benchmarks comparing v8 to LuaJIT? Looks like LuaJIT got removed from the alioth site (?).

There's a branch of node, vee-eight-lkgr, running the new v8 5.8 compiler chain. You can read about how to try it out (and help test it) here: https://medium.com/@bmeurer/help-us-test-the-future-of-node-...

I can see how this proves that 20 is possible, but not that 20 is the largest possible, which is what the question asks. How would that be proven?

The difference is that cheap Dutch bikes are super simple: no gears and a coaster brake. The Walmart bikes aren't. They've often got 21 speeds, shocks, etc etc, all of which is pure crap and fails after minimal use. There's

It's not much, but the code redirects the user to a 'member.php' page after 2 seconds. So whatever the target was, it probably had a member.php page.
