> Or maybe it is accurate, but is hard for men to accept that. There is a clear difference between sexism and misogyny. In fact people that swap one for the other actually have voided both words of any sense and made it a generic insult.

User engagement will drop. But again, open standards to the rescue. RSS and pingbacks were meant to solve this very problem at first place, but since content creators are focused on "impressions", they are unable to take advantage

Just an innocent question , does it really need to be in the spec ? I mean typed arrays make sense, but isn't that too low level ? Things like that, just like async or even promises concern me. Javascript, the language, shouldn't
