Curious to know, what's your business model? You mention you self-funded, but is the intention to have paid accounts, sell advertising, etc?

React is notable for this: inserting HTML strings directly into the DOM uses `dangerouslySetInnerHTML`, and also has used names like `__SECRET_DOM_DO_NOT_USE_OR_YOU_WILL_BE_FIRED`: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=114470

Electron definitely isn't the greatest: it's inefficient, duplicative, and makes your app way larger than it needs to be. With that said, IMO Electron is great purely for the reason that it opens desktop development up massively.

The Consumer Guarantees Act is like the Australian Consumer Law; the ACCC is just the body responsible for enforcing it and representing consumers. The analogous body in NZ is the Commerce Commission: http://www.comcom.govt.nz&#x

The consumer guarantees are specific rights that you cannot sign away; that is, there's no such thing as no warranty. Whether you agree to it when you turn your phone on is irrelevant. As for misuse, that applies only if it caused the

Pharmacies are typically separate to supermarkets in Australia (potentially legally so). Tobacco products are sold at a different counter in the supermarket though (since they have to be served by a person).

There are already strong social norms in Australia against smoking, partially because of these laws. (See other comments in this thread.)

It's specifically not a vacuum, but rather a low pressure system. > Just as aircraft climb to high altitudes to travel through less dense air, Hyperloop encloses the capsules in a reduced pressure tube. The pressure of air in Hype

it depends on the caching layers you have built on top of it, but the API did power parts of HillaryClinton.com during the election.

We shipped a REST API in WordPress 4.7, and the API is going to continue to be a focus of the project going forward. The great thing about that is that it allows building entirely new interfaces without touching any backend code in WordPres

WordPress out-of-the-box is pretty secure, and there's a team who actively work on security, including a specific security lead. The main issues most people run into are with security of plugins and themes. This is basically a result o

All the data in the API was carefully chosen to ensure we don't expose any more than is already. RSS feeds already expose a huge chunk of this.

WordPress 4.7, due in a couple of weeks, includes a brand new REST API which means we can finally start removing some uses of XML-RPC and maybe even someday disable it.
