I thought webassembly has no GC. Is this implementing a GC for go as well, or did something change?

Me and a lot of smart developers before me have learned on our skins that you should never make a rewrite. I think web design has the same problems as web development in regards to rewrite but the design community has yet to internalize tha

This case appears to be the registrar's fault, not the top level domain's fault. Unless 1and1 uses a "sub" registrar for .sm domains (which is actually quite likely) then I would say the moral of the story here is to not

This might not be a popular opinion here, but yes, SPAs are indeed a silver bullet. Or at least, no you shouldn't make a site that isn't SPA. With universal rendering, light frameworks like Preact/Inferno.js and things like

As I understand it, and I think this study concurs, permanent eye damage isn't caused by computer use. Rather it's a combination of genetic susceptibility to being near/far sighted and straining your eyes during the susceptib

I think the tricking he is referring to is the fact that as games progress they turn from skill-based to money-based games, which is how all of these games get people hooked. Setting a "max payed" will most definitely warn you of

Is there a reason why ssn numbers can't become national id numbers? It's the easiest path, all you need is to make new cards with biometric information (probably a photo). The number can remain. Even if you add a validation digit,

I don't think it matters where they are hosted, but I think it's disingenuous to say that all blogs look the same. Sure everything on medium looks the same, but there are many many blogs not on medium. Here, just after a simple se

Why should I use service workers to cache urls as opposed to using checksum urls with cache control (I.e. script.hz15cbsj.js etc...) Unless my site can actually do something offline, service workers for caching is just an extra headache

Unit tests and integration tests are tools, some tools are better at some tasks then others. The idea that a single tool is the only one you need is preposterous. If you are writing a library write unit test, if your app mostly binds two li
