Looks like a lot of these are in libraries. I see moo tools, tinymce and others like that as well. There are possibly specific reasons why a library author has chosen not to include the radix parameter, or they could just be old versions as

I agree, your point is probably the most interesting thing and at the time of my comment IE10 beating Chrome seemed to be stealing the show. Hence my mention of the apples to oranges comparison.

Yeah, I certainly understand and appreciate the concern. I simply don't know if there's a set of specific builds for that purpose or I would have certainly included them.

You can get installers for whatever the latest build is in each channel here: http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel It's updated so frequently I'm not sure there's a better way to get a specific build.

Comparing IE10 to Chrome 10 isn't exactly apples to apples. Chrome 11 or 12 should be compared to IE10 since those are the development versions.

I hadn't heard of the beta blockers having such a large success rate. I'll have to look more into that. I tried Propranolol with no luck.

I'm also a lifelong sufferer who has found no trigger or treatment that works. I've seen more doctors than I can keep track of and none had indicated that it was uncommon, of course that could be because I'm primarily seeing specialists.

I suffer from migraines and it's very unlikely I'd use any type of digital medical journal. I say that from the experience of setting one up for myself. Due to light sensitivity trying to look at a monitor just makes things much worse for m

If you read the article it says that they are looking to optimize price for high adoption rates unlike many of the existing community fiber projects. Until pricing is announced no one knows what that means, but it does seem to be pointing t

Given that the fiber is placed inside of duct that it's strung from the poles you could reasonably expect it to have the same resilience as existing copper infrastructure. Hanging anything from the poles, especially if they are used for del

In places like Palo Alto all of the fiber to the home is done with fiber strung from utility poles. I believe the same is true of the fiber to the home setups in Washington state (east of Lake Washington at least).

The survey I linked to is the 2009 version there's also a follow up with more info. My guess is that after a year Chromes market share was so small as to be not worth discussing. The newer survey, which I should have linked initially, still

Maybe your app could be the launching point for one of those frameworks as well, it might be a nice value added feature.

I wasn't trying to pick on your wiki app, it was just a readily available example where input/output sanitization wasn't happening. I'm not sure what your target demographic is, but I would be surprised if this wasn't a very common problem

One other small note. I don't see where document management is handled. I see the document listing and can get back and forth between documents I've created, but I don't see any way to delete those documents.

Thanks for the quick replies. Given the additional information I can better answer your original question in the post of "would I use this." Due to the lack of a trusted agent anywhere in the stack I don't have any use cases that fit your m

Why in the world would I want to collect garbage. Sure I can post process all of the survey data but it's trivial to do it on the front end so why not. In a significant number of other cases failing to validate input would simply be a non s

Thanks for the answer, but my question isn't about user authentication/validation but validation of input from the user into my application. A simple example, I set up a survey app. Several of the questions contain user input in the form of

To walk a little further down that path, if there is database access how is validation done since none of the client code can be trusted to have been executed and all input from the client should be considered suspect?

A lack of sleep and too many hours is the first thing that seems to be highlighted in a lot of startup stories. The second is a lack of good nutrition and the idea of subsisting on ramen. For example the most recent article[1] on the startu

Agreed. There's a lot of room for disruption in recruiting as many agencies/recruiters have poor/unethical practices. Unfortunately this misses the mark for me as an employer and would scare me away if I were looking for work as an unreason

Some people might be able to figure this out before applying but most probably wouldn't as a lot of that type of information isn't publicly available. More importantly, if I can figure out what compensation (equity/salary), travel, work, et

I would add that it does nothing to help determine if the candidate is qualified which is the larger hurdle for most companies than attracting job applicants. This doesn't address that point at all.
