   I was doing that like a year ago. Now I have moved on to using "hipster" ironically.

   Not being able to boast ie6 support will be a huge blow to the egos of anal-retentive front-end engineers everywhere.

   I find the title of the title of this article bizarre. I almost expected it to be some kind of takedown or smear article. But it's just a standard interview...

   Wow that waiting for the pope image is incredible, and frightening.

   hey pushmatrix, thanks for replying. does batman.js have anything like angular's custom directives? are there any other features/advantages a possible adopter should know about besides the similarity to a Rails API? EDIT: or perhaps phrase

   Is batman.js supposed to be an alternative to angular? If so, what advantages does it have?

   The one I mentioned above, you cannot conditionally create functions using function declarations.

   >> I just don't get what it adds to your code apart from hiding simple function definitions in the visual trappings of a static helper object or closure. Javascript is already homogeneous enough without making it visually even more.

   I don't believe so. It sounds like he prefers using function declations to function expressions. And this is incorrect according to most js gurus. For example: http://javascriptweblog.wordpress.com/2010/07/06/function-de... From that l

    I don't think many would disagree with this principle, but I don't think his response qualifies as out-of-limit discourse. I just read it as honest and accurate. He's not being a dick just for the sake of it. His thoughts sound exactly li

    Congrats, and I'll add one nitty comment. I think the main email address should be "help@" or "support@". I get that you are trying to be whimsical with the "hi@", but I think you should stick to using your site design as your branding to

    In addition, per Crockford, shouldn't we be using "===" instead of "==" in a best practice demo?

    Beautiful work. One easy-to-implement suggestion: Add the ability to name major drafts. Are you using git under the hood? If so, it would just be a named branch....

    These are orthogonal issues. Yes, Cordain should provide proof for the diet he champions. Separately from that, she has written a book called "Paleofantasy" which implies proof that the diet's precepts are invalid. Hence from her side sho

    The "plenty of time" of time argument only shows that Cordain's reasoning is not bulletproof -- it doesn't refute it. Just because it's possible to adapt to a new condition doesn't mean we will, or that our adaptation will be complete. La
