Its good for americans britons and australians. For everyone else its just bad. Regardles? Forced medication? No thanks


The last bit is funny, it would take a lot of words to explain. The most important mechanisms are filters that exclude topics from your friends feed, self-moderation and 3rd party monetization. You are a guest, it isn't your place, you should and shall behave as such.

I dont know who your fb "friends" are but mine are diverse enough not to bother them with stuff they dont find interesting. You should post a picture of your lunch not some 1000 word article.

Also, if you wrote the above on your own site i would return to read more. Here i dont bother.


One witness noted that if people thougt he was simply insane he should not be the one to turn the key for the nuclear missile. Or worse, if his sanity was ever so slightly in doubt he should be removed - according to himself.


It's hard for many to acept not knowing something. Or to make a joke from it: It uses propulsion we know to be impossible.


It's an UFO until it's a drone. (Joking)


I thougt it sounded very professional since tracking employees could be illegal while assets are fair game.


Fun.... ok...

Make an asmjs implementation of https://www.vttoth.com/CMS/projects/13-4-bit-processor/134-v...

Complete with an old skool disasambler to code up the typed array in.

Also think up some method to populate the webpage with text using canvas and some way to call the mothership using Victors amazing.


I would use only my own votes since quality is merely an opinion.


Create your own "problem" and post it to Reddit. Its fun seeing people strugle and to see creative solutions. Here is mine

Ill suggest notepad. Ill slap together some basic html doctype a head with style and script tags, yes inline, a body with some simple divs and in no time at all it will look as good if not better than the hipster 50 000 line Frankensteins monster of bloat.

In the 80's we knew that a single small optimalization was worthless but if you acumulate enouh of them the sum of the parts blew the mind of even the most sophisticated software wizards. The trend nowadays is to hoard deoptimalizations while arguing it doesnt mater.

I keep wondering why popular modules so rarely make it into the language. I joked the other day that it would be nice to have sortable <table>'s out of the box. Imagine the table code was <table json="{}"/> and that we could do <form json="{}"/> too. The amount of code we could discard. lol


>and in no time at all it will look as good if not better //

Back in the day, you then tested it on IE and did the other 50% of the work.

Then you basically created a framework to ease that, and include fixes for it browsers too, and then you realised you were making a framework and that it was more optimal to use an established framework that 50,000 man hours had already been spent on ...

Before you know it you're theming WordPress on a shared hosting server, rather than ./configure-ing httpd and writing everything in nano.


This is what React actually lets you do... It just also acknowledges that UI components must be sufficiently typed and coded that they can accept lambdas as properties in order to provide the expressivity needed. Template languages must be real languages because templates are macros at heart.

I expect Web Components will learn that lesson slowly and painfully instead, as they cling to the broken ideas that got us here.
