So many JS libraries these days, I can barely smell which ones are real anymore

This is pretty clearly spam, right? These aren't examples from exemplary professionals, these are examples of one particular CV tool in action. And they don't even look very good, they're all very "try hard" resumes

+1. There was that push for the Web Platform site[1], the fancy flashy unified source for web documentation, but I haven't gone back there since day 1... MDN has more content, more contributors, more love. [1] http://www.web

That's very fair. I look forward to it! I enjoy your reviews so far, the trend of legitimately useful sitebuilders is interesting. I yearn for a return of the geocities days, when everyone was pumping out lame websites instead of socia

Agreed, especially about integration. Many web apps expose their functionality with RESTful JSON APIs or similar. It seems to me that integrating data & functionality from across web apps is far more common than in the desktop setting.

How do you feel about Webflow? I haven't used it personally but from what I've seen (watching over shoulders) it is more technical than most builders but very solid. The interface actually reminds me of Weebly, like expert-mode We

This is one of my favorite aspects of JS. It won't win many prizes for its language design, but the community of people and the proliferation of projects & libraries is worth a little struggle.

One part I didn't like is towards the beginning the author says: "Nobody knows why we don’t observe these kinds of strange superpositions in the macroscopic world. For some reason, quantum mechanics just doesn’t work on that scale

Chrome uses a separate render process for each tab[1], so when one crashes it doesn't KO the whole browser. However this also means Chrome has a larger memory footprint, since each tab is taking up the resources of a little browser. Fi

You're right. In my case, I only use HN on mobile as a time-killer, cruising through interesting articles and emailing myself the ones that catch my interest. I don't get down and dirty until I'm on a desktop.

These are fun JS "gotchas" but this article should be rebranded as such. Edge-case trivia are not useful interview questions for finding a solid developer.

Stopped complaining when laypersons misuse it, sure. But can't we keep the real meaning within our own nomenclature? When I go to a hackathon I expect to be building something.

According to the Swift language guide Strings, Arrays, and Dictionaries are all copied on assignment to a variable. So wouldn't the author's primary assumption (that let a and var b refer to the same array) be false? And this whol

Is a plain for loop with a counter significantly faster than a forEach? With Object.keys I've been enjoying the simplicity of statements like Object.keys(obj).forEach(function (key) { console.log(obj[key]); }); but does t

I was under the impression this is true of all browsers, don't all client-side languages like Dart or TypeScript compile to JS before they can be run?

Ah yeah I agree with that, I love the product but the communication has been... obtuse. I was really happy to see that post from Kari the new PR person, but no more word after that... http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/vi

I also have found Font Awesome to be an easy and comprehensive solution (mmmm that huge icon selection, dang!). I honestly don't understand, why hasn't FA been folded into Bootstrap? Is it some licensing thing?

They've acknowledged broken hovers as a bug, good ones are slated to return in 3.0.1 https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/9879

The subtle color enhancements are nice (nothing like lowering contrast to make things look classier) but the button hovers appear broken.. that was an important bit of sparkle in twbs2 I hope 'twas just an oversight.

And the society reflects the corporatocracy. Our culture and way of life have been deeply shaped by marketing. Producers producing too much are finding ways to make more consumers. So we're stuck in this endless cycle of consumerism th

Funny to think about. Like in the 80s/90s when digital graphic design got big and everything was stuffed full of heavy textures and raucous splashes of colors. Then we got a grip and started scaling back to minimal. Same thing happenin
