Maybe this is the chance to finally get rid of “Java” from JavaScript. My vote goes to WebScript.

I think it’s really cool, but not sure about the button design (seams to trap germs) and placement (index finger is not where I naturally exert pressure when cutting with a kitchen knife). Also would be nice if it can be fitted to existing

I think a hosted solution is best, unless you know for sure that they’ll always have a developer willing to volunteer their time to manage their server and keep everything up to date. The cost is peanuts compared to the hourly rate of a dev

I disagree that you shouldn’t use document.write for <script> and <style> tags, as it’s the only way to force dynamically inserted script to run in a parser-blocking manner during parsing, and to prevent flash of unstyled conten

Ok I guess if you are that level of paranoid - even though both Chromium and Firefox are open source and under a heck of a lot of scrutiny for security vulnerabilities - then I understand why you prefer Gemini. I just feel the fact that it

You can create a browser plugin that detect such tag and automatically turns off JavaScript. You can even configure the plugin to detect if a page contains JavaScript while claiming not to be.

Instead of inventing a separate protocol, you can invent your own html meta tag that marks a website to be JavaScript-free. This will let you create search engines that crawl and index these sites specifically.

My father pays for ChatGPT and it’s his personal consultant/assistant for everything - from troubleshooting appliance repair, to finding the correct part to buy, to guiding him step by step to track down lost luggage and drafting the e

The logic is simple, as soon as you collected and/or processed IP addresses, you need user consent as it is personal data. You don’t get to “undo” this requirement by discarding the IP address afterwards, the law doesn’t care. Others h

A couple of days ago I was researching website analytics and GDPR/cookie law, and it seems clear that you need user consent even if IP addresses are only processed or temporarily stored before being discarded. Arguing otherwise is like

This is just people being lazy and asking AI to do their proverbial homework instead of using it as a teacher to help them improve.

He’s politically naive. I agree with him on much, such as don’t make workplace political, and cancel culture and DEI have in many cases gone mad, but his tolerance, even gentle celebration of Trump in the name of free speech is a classic ex

I too lamented the loss of HTML imports and ended up coming up with my own JavaScript library for it. https://miragecraft.com/blog/replacing-html-imports At the end of the day it’s not something trivial to implement at

I was handwriting HTML for a while but found that I write a lot more with an actual CMS. At the end of the day it doesn’t matter what your setup is as long as it helps you write as much as possible.

It’s great that this works for you, I hope you write lots. Everyone’s brain is wired differently, and for me Kirby CMS works best as I can blog anywhere and can run scripts server side. Throw it up on NearlyFreeSpeech.Net and I pay less tha

It depends on how you use AI - are you using it as "smart shortcut" turning comments/pseudo-code into code blocks? Are you using it for pair programming? A senior programmer to bounce ideas off of? If you want to learn, AI is

Is this really a performance concern though?

In the final demo, when I click on "Conclusion" in the side nav, it doesn't even bring the content into view.

The Zhihu answer linked, which supposedly has over 20 million hits, has less than 7,000 people who clicked on “Agree”. And someone decided to make a sensationalist news article out of it.

Use “survivor” frameworks, things that last a decade will likely last another. Tailwind, React, Vue, PHP/Laravel, Rails etc. are all very much alive and kicking. Plus there is nothing wrong with using outdated front end framework other

That’s pretty much what happened to those domains.

Haunted is a weird way to call them, these are stigmatized domains.

I have no horse in this race, my site is powered by Kirby CMS due to my preference for simplicity and security. Wordpress seems like the dying Emperor in 40k where the daily sacrifice of thousands of psykers (developers) is the only thing s

A lot of countries have a national food reserve that is used to calm prices when demand fluctuates, it allows time to adjust production while you’re putting food in or out of the reserve to control prices. Does Japan not have that?

I coded my own JS based HTML include leveraging script tags. https://github.com/miragecraft/x-include The main advantage is that it’s not subject to CORS thus works directly from the local file system without having to
