I don't know why, but I love the fact that someone is selling filters strapped to fans on a reasonably glossy and well-made page.

I wasn’t just thinking about the features themselves, but the big picture. It does seem a bit exploratory to me (weren’t the non-V8 parts written in Go once?)

Wonder what itch this is scratching (security? RiiR/TS?). The IMHO biggest flaw of node (no std lib) still seems present.

Well, it's not real C, and simplifying a language makes things a lot more easier than having to stick to a lengthy, detailed standard. Not that the compiler ever argues that it does something different than that, it's named "

Not saying it's not useful, just that this arose from them not using a hard-coded comma, but referencing some default separator, that happens to be the semi-colon in some locales. I might be wrong and this could have an older precedent

Excel is mostly responsible for wrecking any attempt of "standard" CSV, not that there ever was a chance. If I remember correctly, non-Anglo CSVs using a semi-colon as a delimiter is fully to blame on it.

When we're talking about reinventing HTML, there's a bit of a difference between a regular block of HTML between template tags and JSX I'd say.

I've got some mixed feelings about this, although I don't disagree when it comes to the heart of that suggestion. For one, ORMs certainly reach their limits far too soon, and after that dealing with it is beyond the average use ca

Yes, it seems most of the posters are mostly familiar with the JS build … situation, where the last addendum of the post regarding multiple languages would apply anyway (as you're often building JS, HTML and CSS in one fell swoop). Mod

I'd say it's the opposite, Windows gamers are more used to this. I think by now one of the biggest parts of Nvidia/ATI drivers are patches and workarounds for certain games. Add the patches to the games themselves, and you&#x

I did some experiments, after watching the quite helpful design videos by the two main developers, and it's been quite useful. Definitely best suited (or only suited?) to a component-based system, where the repetition is soon factored

Component-based architecture doesn't imply JS-based versions of HTML and/or CSS, though. React does it that way, e.g. web components don't. Not that I'm averse to "reinventing" HTML or CSS in the first place, a

I don't think I heard "SSR" in a context where it's just about backend HTML generation like we did in the olden days, only when it comes to reify JS views on the server. Haven't heard of an embedded JS interpreter o

Writing System 6 software with C++17? Now that's an interesting version of retrocomputing. Are we getting more Slack clients for old systems/operating systems?

Yeah, I never quite liked the currenly en vogue mixed approaches, where it's harder to draw a line, you often have to serve two masters and you feel it's mostly done that way because React developers don't want to learn anyth

> But SPAs offer best UIs I don't consider this a settled conclusion. Mostly because it's a false dichotomy. There are alternatives to both SSR of component sites and SPAs, and every solution has its inherent advantages and dis

So is this a straightforward delivery system for the default CSS file or is there some URL-based way to configure it (custom palette, disable parts etc.)?

Yes, "technical" clothing for regular use seems to be a unfilled niche. You either get stuff for trekking, or that awful "techwear" trend that makes you look like a ninja who's really into Nine Inch Nails, with a bi

Really? This page might be older, but it's a pretty "modern" page, no tables for layout, no Gimp-Fu created header, just some text styled with CSS. Not late 90s Dreamweaver/Geocities, more early 2000s CSS Zen Garden (the

I don't think this is a failure of OOP itself, nor does it come down to any language's shortcomings. I think it's mostly a market failure. The units of trade were complete software products and/or services/apps thes
