PS: On a sidenote, and as Torrent Freak has written about them, I must point that Time4Popcorn are pretending to be developing another version of Popcorn Time. The truth is that they are ripping some of our community work without crediting

I used to find these types of articles useful. But now I see them more as dogma. Great engineers don't struggle with things like JavaScript inheritance because they understand best practices and trade offs. So in general, I find it

this smells like a js engine optimization. you wouldn't expect substantially different machine code to run for "Direct assignment" and "other". i wouldn't be surprised if the loop is being unrolled or something.

If this is their IP they should license the technology out to an established company. If this isn't their IP they're kind of screwed anyway.

Pathetic? Care to elaborate on that?

I see some criticisms (that I agree with) of the "security" model here. Implementing the self destruction protection on the client is problematic (even in the case of SnapChat) because the end user is in control of the client. So if users

Not CSRF. XSSI. It's actually completely different

Actually this prevents XSSI (cross-site script inclusion) not XSRF (cross-site request forgery). XSRF vulnerabilities allow an attacker to issue web requests on a user's behalf; oftentimes though people only call it a vulnerability when you

"It is ironic since whenever I have met with our elected officials they are invariably thoughtful, well-meaning people." Maybe they come off as thoughtful and well-meaning because many of them are sociopaths. Indeed, politicians are much m

My favorite part is the tongue in cheek title for Tim Berner-Lee: "Web Developer". That's an understatement (as well as a perfectly accurate one).

Don't use this. Mutation events are insanely expensive.

Have to disagree. This has already been mentioned elsewhere but comments with little value are already penalized when people downvote them. If you notice more crap comments that aren't being downvoted that's because a) the community standar

You might find the fourth page of the code examples for the date function helpful. Shows several formatting examples.

Like a 3 clawed hammer, there simply is no reason for this :) j/k It's really cool. And really impressive. And if you can make it perform well in the browser (big if I bet) I can think of several valid use cases. Nice work

First of all, technically this is a CAPTCHA still. Second of all, you can eliminate the vast majority (or sometimes all) of your spam using honeypots much simpler CAPTCHAS like "what is four + 2?".

I don't think any of these suggestions make JSON easier to read, generate, or consume. What problem are you setting out to solve? Opening paragraph: "JSON is strict. Keys need to be quoted; strings can only be double-quoted; objects and ar

Wait...when you say fail are you saying they fail to produce something optimal or fail to produce working code?
