Yeah, for smaller sites plain old manual DOM manipulations can work just fine. You're writing productive code right from the get go. No need to learn the nuances of a JS framework. But if the site or web app gets larger, I would want t

Not when you've gone into the BIOS and configured the BMC to only operate on it's dedicated port. I'm responsible for netsec at my company and I've never seen any indication of the BMC network activity on primary network

Yes, you also pointed out this fact up above in the comment chain as well. And as @strainer pointed out, it leaves us with more questions than answers. Specifically: how could he have participated in the study but publish a blog post that c

I think you need to look up the definition for "equilibrium" and then re-read the article once more... Either way I'm done with this tangent.

The soil is not only a meter deep. In most places it's several meters deep and it's that deep despite constant heavy rains and erosion. The soil does not need to be millions of meters deep in order for the forest to be both a net

We're talking about oxygen production. Not carbon sequestration. Regarding sequestration: the carbon goes into the trunk, branches, roots and leaves of the tree. Leaves fall off the tree, rot and become soil. The tree eventually dies,
