I don't get it - they could ALWAYS read your notes ("if We need to do so for troubleshooting purposes;" said the old T&Cs). The only thing they added is the new machine learning thing, from which you can opt out. And you

Vitamin B12 supplements are ESSENTIALS for vegans, and recommended to vegetarians. Vitamin D are also recommended. Others vitamin supplements are quite useless.

The criteria you use it to judge it determine whether it's assessed as broken or not. I maintain it is NOT broken; it's your broken-assessing criteria that are wrong.

I imagine you would write the "lowest common denominator" SQL which run on all of the database. You can do that with JS too. But then you miss out on all the browsers latest APIs.

You don't get it. In FE the target is Java 8, 7, 6, 5, 4 and 3. Everybody uses different browsers, on different devices. If you wait for the least common denominator all websites would still look like geocities

Well, yeah, by then we'll have to go back to serve different JS files for different browsers. Luckily old IEs support conditional comments so it shouldn't be an issue.

That's not the way FE works. You want to focus on the latest browser APIs as possible, to build more complex interfaces more efficiently. For the unlucky ones stuck on old browsers, you provide a fall back. Luckily modern browsers all

Nobody's really mixing versions, it transpiles ES6 and above to ES5. You don't have to use Babel, you only use it if you want to use the latest version of JS, ES6. You can happily just use ES5, and many people do. Why use ES6? F

As a insider to FE development, I'm tired of hearing comments about JS fatigue and all the rest. FE development is made of many moving parts and standards managed by different players. JS, for example, has to work on a variety of brow
