The government is not any smarter, they would let people starve to death if food could be easily transformed into fire weapons.

Is actually easier than that; when you use "print" in Chrome an other modern browsers you can select the text and pics there without messing with HTML tags.

Search any jQuery plugin, many insert DOM and listeners that are not slightly configurable, most of them don't follow simple rules: http://coding.smashingmagazine.com/2011/10/11/essential-jque...

In that context any kind of comparision would be a strawman unless is _your_ way of mixing jQuery with native code; maybe this would become more clear with different examples: #Ex. 1 $("div").map(function(){ return $(this).css('backgr

It is referencing the native Array.prototype.sort; I just wanted to make a native-only way. Yes, you can use other native methods and polyfills with the same API, for example here is a jQuery plugin for reversing elements: jQuery.fn

The one called "MUCH MORE PRACTIVAL native equivalent" is a mistake, it doesn't do anything. I didn't know documentFragment lacks the innerHTML property so is not doing any parsing like the others.

I'm with you in that argument, and here is some code to prove it; a little script that orders all 'divs' based on their size; the jQuery implementation freezes the page for a few seconds while the native one does not (Chrome 26 - i7/2.67GHz

At least we agree is crappy. BTW sorry for ruining your perfs, I really wanted to test some few things.

If you ask them to use another browser some of them will; so I argue is less than 10%. As a side-note "document.querySelectorAll" is supported by IE8, but unfortunately it doesn't have Array.prototype.filter nor other basic array methods.

Is not crappy because is slower, is crappy because it destroys all the eventListeners and custom properties of all their childNodes.

For the people saying "just use jQuery always, is not that much of a perfomance hit", is just blatantly false; any complex manipulation and you start seeing the difference right away; many times I have to use both, native selectors for perf

False, any complex manipulation (graphic-less or not) of all DOM elements in the current page an you notice a significant performance cost in orders of magnitude.

And when the clients pay their employees are the ones who ultimately pay the tax; it's a coherent but meaningless analogy.

Legitimate patents can die for all I care. We have a brain too; using it in a particular way before someone else do should give you no advantage. Let the implementation do the fighting.

It will happen with programmers too (at least to some degree); first with high-level abstractions and then slowly approaching low level.

Because you can't know the net positive in advance; is way too dependent of the context and that includes the size of the company. It also discourages the searching of flaws in the system because even if you get away with it once (net-posit

Yeah, that's why I think exponential grow in fines for repeated offenses by a company is a good idea, it will eventually be net negative for the company so they will stop doing it.

I think a better solution is to make fines exponential (for repeated reasons), for e.g. 1st time $10, 2nd time $100, third time $1000 dollars and so on.

Some people in the USA tend to forget that there are other characters besides the ones the use, a little encode_url would be enough. Special Spanish characters don't work neither (áéíóúñ).
