Note that as is mentioned on the website, this has indeed been tested on users, and the results of the study have gone through rigorous peer review and published at a top tier academic conference on HCI. And yes, the audience is programming

IE 11 is a dead browser. Development stopped 3 years ago. There will never be an IE 12, it's just Edge now (which Mavo works in just fine).

Nope. There were many people around, and it was clear that he didn’t know all of them. There were people he didn't know just as close as I was. He apologized only to me, nobody else.

THIS. There is nothing wrong with dick jokes. The only sexist thing about them is the imbalance: We need more vulva jokes too :)

FOUC? It's only some CSS3 that won't display until DOM load, not the whole styling. As for the performance, I'm pretty sure you're just guessing, and haven't done any testing.

Yes, eventually the prefixes get dropped. In some engines sooner than others. Eric Meyer recently wrote a nice article about this, on ALA: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/prefix-or-posthack/
