I'm not sure if your original choice of words was regrettable, or if you're trying to cover a retreat. The tenor of your comments (here and elsewhere) certainly suggests the latter. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume the form

In what context could those statements (1) make any sense, or (2) be in any way acceptable? And further, you wrote one piddling paragraph. Any reader can plainly find the context: It is that you believe in gender roles so strong, it sounds

Somehow we came to believe that women can be as good employees as men men lost their natural advantage in the workforce To be able to make these claims so boldly .. you must have no shame whatsoever.

I don't think parent is suggesting the whole website be written in C. I think parent sees the CS focus as a sideshow, and that a C version of the "escaper," even if not designed ideally, would still smoke the Ruby version that was acting as

Regarding the "made a deal" assertion, I wouldn't take the IRC log hook-line-and-sinker. There's probably a mixture of truth and lies.

Your argument rests on the flawed premise that the reader is a passive fool waiting to be spoon-fed their morning panic ration. An article may be the top story of the day, but that doesn't mean it is important or relevant to me. Clearly the

JavaScript provides arrays and objects, and also functions for grouping data (via closures). What else would you expect it to come with? The quality `goog.structs` package speaks to how easy it is to create very high-level data structures.

You touch on a good point, but I'm not sure it has to do with this particular piece. Rather, the author seems really confused: There are great projects like Underscore, Sugar, Prototype, jQuery, CoffeeScript and many many more that

If you twist your glasses enough, you can make history into whatever you wish it to be. That's why it's called revisionism. In your case, you are going overboard to show that Protestantism was the driving force behind much of the renaissa

Your interpretation of renaissance history remains revisionist. England was perfectly able to compete with Spain, etc. particularly following the Spanish Armada. Note that Spain had been crumbling from within for a long time. Only at that p

A fair assertion. Also, it is important to note Adam Smith et. al. got many of their ideas from the Islamic world (credit economy and such), not from Protestant reforms. Popular history seldom gives the Islamic world the credit it deserves

If that were the aim, and he's content to rely on JS, why not set the href attribute at runtime? In any case I'd think a small contact form a worthy investment, as I doubt he's charging pennies.

Good to see people using the Closure Tools. It really is a powerful toolkit. Just a reminder that I (and some others, hopefully) are in ##closure-tools on Freenode to help you out if you have questions. Make sure to stay in the channel if y
