Is it possible to do inline video, or is it possible to write a plugin that does it? I have a highly specific note taking application in mind, if you'd like to have a somewhat concrete use case for a specific market and you'd like

I think they meant 'can you do stuff other than sending data' - other things that you'd use javascript for that is not sending data/ajax. Validation and stuff. I'm writing some extensions in what is essentially a &#

"because today’s consumer buys on potency." Why is that? Is it cheaper? Would you be able to supply less potent product cheaper (maybe shorter growing times or less work or other reason)? I know nothing about this field but I find

No, the next times they drove the horse trailer up to the gate and chased the animals in. The gate was somewhat awkward to access with tbe trailer, hence us catching it the first time, but I guess everybody underestimated how strong these b

On stories about catching large birds: when I was a teenager I had a job at a DIY store, the owner of which also had a pet store, which in turn was known in the area for selling all sorts of exotic animals (this was 20 years when this was s

Lots of software would be better (from the user's POV) as a desktop app. However as a developer and as a software business owner/investor, it's (much) better to write web apps. So it depends on what you're asking here. S

I was watching an episode a while ago (forgot which one) where it was obvious the two rappers had never even been in the house before, like having to look around what sort of room it was before saying 'this is the lounge' or whate

Did you even read what the person you're replying to was saying, or did you ctrl f 'video games' and just assume anyone mentioning them is attacking them?

Well they don't know, and neither does anyone else. So it's either throw out an arbitrary goal now, and run the risk of having to change it and people saying 'you keep moving the goal post', or not doing it and people sa

Probably downvotes because the answer to your question is the same as to 90% of all uninformed questions online - "we don't know". There are so many unknowns, things go day by day or week by week at best. I too get annoyed at

Ugh I loathe this concept, although it's real. But 9 times out of 10 when you ask about a complicated problem online, which you've reduced to its simplest components because it's impossible to explain the entire context to an

Also, I think as a student you're quite shielded from it. Ask your professor (not the postdocs or the assocs, the real ones) some day, I'm sure they have an opinion on it.

Fair enough, although I'm not sure how what you say is at odds with what I said. As you indicate, Dutch students don't care much if any (yet). It probably depends on the university as well. The highly international ones (Wageninge

Sure, but that first job is likely to determine the rest of your career, if your career path is somewhat traditional. So the school reputation would still have been quite important overall (especially if you wanted to aim high and get hired

From within Dutch universities, rankings are considered very important (more by the non-academic staff than by the academics). The general public doesn't really care all that much yet, but they do more and more each year. It's esp

Oh OK, I too bought it years ago at $20 - but still, that $10 doesn't materially change my point.

Why is that relevant to the discussion? The GP doesn't even mention anything about others. You are the one saying, literally, "Soviet body builders only used free weights and a pull-up bar. You don’t need anything but that to ge

Doesn't matter from the pov of the university. The GP's point was that 'money source' and 'educational facility' are the same in USSR, but not in the West.
