I don't know how to feel about this. The concept of "commenting on web page" is old, but with so much people connected to internet, do we really need a comment section on all pages ? From my point of view, comments are most o

With that amount of money, I can live 100 years. Housing, insurance, food, every basic need covered (and I ll own my house for goods, no loan). Why the hell would I start a company ?

Vim is not hard to learn, a few hours give you the basic. Vim is hard to master. 3 years ago I started to use Spacemacs with evil (so vim) and I keep learning new vim tricks. It's a lot of fun and I really can't go back.

RSA is not at all a basic income... Basic income should be unconditional and would affect every one in our society. RSA just prevent people from dying too soon.

As I said, if you are building a template for Wordpress, you don't really need NPM to do it (you can of course, but should you ?). There is a lot of upside/downside to NPM/Node, largly covered by smart people on the internet.
