The agents can implement any input mechanism. If I'm writing a text-based browser, I should be able to accept mark-down. Chromium can do whatever fancy thing they please. For output (the value of the field), HTML is good enough already

I think we should approach the whole selling-sex thing less emotionally and more logically. We have extensive rules here in Germany to protect the health of workers. In that spirit, any physical and mental health risks taken by people who a

I'm quite disappointed that even in the year 2022 the best solution HTML offers for rich text editing is the infamous contenteditable attribute. I can never expect a WYSIWYG editor from a library to work 100% without friction on every

This, and "we do what we must because we can" from the GP are references to the ending credits in Portal, the game, if anyone is wondering.

Apple is upfront with what's going on. You may not like it, but they are "honest" about it (with the disclaimer that corporations cannot be honest etc.). It, however, leaves a bad taste if you are running an open-source show,

Such a great, pragmatic, versatile programming language (C#), having a great FP side-kick (F#) that can be used next to it, and years of corporate experience and a great ecosystem of closed and open-source libraries, 3rd party tooling that

I really don't want to be a downer but all I read in pro cryptocurrency posts are: It's still new! It needs time! You need to follow the latest developments! It has a lot of potential! It's time already that someone shows som

Protecting the environment and sustainability is also 100x more important than that. Do we ever draw a line where our responsibilities end or as developers do we have to gather knowledge and make the best decisions until we reach singularit

Why should it be demotivating trying do something perfectly as requested? Many of us, including me, come from freelancing, and perhaps that trained many to answer most customer requests with "ok but what you really want is...", bu

Ottomans took it as an insult when called Turks and avoided Turks in their upper echelons particularly after 14th century. Funny how they scored one last point like this. Disclaimer: I'm of Turkish origin and I still find it very funny

Well, turkey (the bird) is called hindi (Indian) in Turkish, maybe change that too? But seriously, I'm from T... Türkiye (?) and I don't think the name confusion is a big deal, but I'm not impartial as I really love turkeys :

I'm not a fan of node, but python is horrible in this regard, especially with package management and environments. I'd take "make random js code work" to the python equivalent any day, which is already a bigger challenge

You need to write a lot of helpers to come close to jQuery. Also edge cases aren't that big of a deal now that IE is near it's EOL.
