Actually, I think it would be rather straightforward. I'm a bit embarrassed for HN that they're still using tables and spacer gifs and see it as an intentional pushback on "caving" to modern web techniques. Despite CSS b

Just because something is legally available to you does not mean it is the right thing to do. A good example of this is one's right not to wear a mask; or ride your unmuffled motorcycle around the neighborhood at 2am. The list goes on.

I think Occam's razor leads me to the same conclusion. The only part that still has me questioning are the large number of reported visual sightings by the very same pilots reporting radar contact.

Thank you! I now know what this phenomenon is called. I went through "diversity training" when I worked at a university, and was appalled at the presentation. The Kafkatrap was _exactly_ the trick used throughout the entire "

Take a look at Modafinil. Not a traditional stimulant. I've been taking it routinely at the start of the workday for focus with great success. No "come down".

I hold/held the opinion. I've asked several of my doctor friends what they think of a future like this. They are all resoundingly pessimistic, due to the false positives they think would result and a general sense that it would re

I wonder how this is different from Lambda@Edge.

It's good, but still has some work to do. Still no support for JSDOM (or equivalent).

To extend the OP's line of thinking does it really matter. Exams can be rescheduled, extenuating circumstances taken into account. As someone that has fallen ill quite suddenly through examination periods due to chronic illness I nev

I paid $2,000 for a haircut once. It was meant to be $10 but the hairdresser didn't know how the machine worked (it was new) and entered the '00' for the cents. Two transactions in a row. Five minutes later my credit card had

Dan Abramov claims that React hooks haven't jumped the shark. All I'm seeing in this article is exactly that.

For anyone who has not yet read of the books from The Culture series, I highly encourage you to do so. They are an amazing - agnostic - version of what our far future selves could be. Iain M. Banks had quite the mind (no pun intended).

I completely agree, but the question remains what experience do we provide when JavaScript is not available? (Progressive enhancement isn't just for "people who turn off JavaScript", it's an defensive approach to providi
