Client side JavasScript, all you need is a json document and a lot of heavy lifting on the client. Not a good solution for sites with a lot of content, but for the simpler ones... yeah. You won't get search, but still... For things lik

I don't consider that trolling, just statement of fact. But I guess it depends on what each person considers free. GNU has a concept of freedom that it tries to protect via the GPL. Licenses like the BSD or MIT do not. Personally, I th

I always thought the common order was: 16th of December, 2013. You can also argue that it has been that way for a long time. For example, the English King James' Version of the Bible uses dates in the same dd-mm maner (not always inclu

However, performance is shite. I ended up going for a native install and you can appreciate the difference. That is, if you run Gnome 3 (which is a pile of shite as well). When on other DMs, if you can call xmonad a dm, virtual box was just

You can also run it as an unprivileged user (in osx, I think the user `nobody` might be a good choice).

Speculate on house prices just because there's a vegan restaurant round the corner? No thanks. I don't approve of that logic. There's a potential vegan kitchen in every home, it's not a luxury, it's not a commodity,

I noticed the "Omnivorous" check box, but clicking it doesn't show that many more places - I assumed omnivorous would mean something along the lines of: every pub, restaurant, and shop in London. Apparently not, so, can someb

In the end it's not so much about the money, but I'd be surprised if you didn't get top candidates for 100K (obviously). I don't think, however, that money plays a big part. In my case, I'm earning in the 30-39K range as a full-stack web de
