But browsers already take care of this. They collapse all the spaces in markup for non-pre-formatted blocks; they render block/inline elements accordingly; insert newlines where needed, etc. And then, once you select some text from the

(author here) I'm working on text editor with real-time spelling correction where `innerText`-like retrieval has to happen quite frequently; it's what pushed me to research the state of affairs with `innerText` in the first place.

Pretty much the only feature, yes. We'll be adding it shortly, sorry for the confusion.

Definitely. And that's why we give different weight to different features. Smallest ones (Math methods, octal & binary literals, etc.) have a weight of 0.25. Medium ones (Map, Set, rest parameters, etc.) have a weight of 0.5. Final

For now, yes. Modules are difficult to test (via regular means like `eval`) and the standard is still in the flux so we're trying to figure out the best way — https://github.com/kangax/compat-table/issues&#x2F

I noticed that I can't do more than 5 quality hours of work as well. And mostly, it's all about density. 2 hours of debugging a tricky issue, while having your tools fail you multiple times in the process, can drain me out for the

Exactly. Once you understand underlying concept, `this` is not complicated or weird. Small addendum to your list: "whatever is left of the dot at call-time" is a nice way to explain "base reference" concept, but be wary

A much more interesting question indeed. There's been numerous (human and animal) studies showing benefits of strength training for elderly. Ergo-log covers [1] those [2] all [3] the time [4]. Then there's evidence [5] suggesting

This is nothing new. Back when I was starting, it was all about "JS libraries"; when Prototype.js gained the most traction at one point, beating in popularity older Dojo. Still, there were new libs popping up again and again — Moo

Damn, this is bizarre; the kind of elitist attitude that gives Crossfit bad rep. 5 basic lifts with a linear progression (SL/SS) and some mobility/flexibility work is absolutely fantastic way to create foundational strength. Rippe

You still can't edit JS like you can in chrome devtools. This is such a boon and a basic thing, really, that I can't switch until they add it. Aside from that, yeah, FF is getting pretty good.

Good point, updated. These were done on 2.3GHz Core i7 & OS X 10.9.4. Note that "max" settings were used, meaning that, for example, both JS and CSS had to be minified (and that's delegated to UglifyJS2 and clean-css pack

It's not so much about invalid HTML as it is about superset of HTML. I don't like it either but certain constructs seem hard to implement otherwise. Changing attribute value is easy within HTML boundaries but anything related to p

I think it's safe to say that there's some sort of correlation, although of course obesity is a complex issue. Higher caloric intake is just part of equation. Sedentary life style, increased stress, reduced sleep, "western&q

And ironically, death rates from obesity just crossed those from hunger. The abundance of food (or rather, abysmal diet culture) is now starting to hurt us.
