My point is that defining a complex behavior for a custom tag is not possible without js. For example, you can't define a reusable 'host-element' tag and expect some additional elements (or some behavior) to automatically app

I'm not a fan of these custom elements. Unless you do something really interactive, dynamic and reusable (an element with complex behavior), I don't think it's worth to use them. The SEO / accessibility becomes more chal

jQuery was very useful when many features were missing or not consistent/standardized between browsers. Nowadays, JS / DOM API is very rich, mature and standardized. So, jQuery is not as necessary as it was before. https:/&#

Maybe you are not required to close, browsers are ridiculously tolerant to html mistakes. But do you think it would be easy to maintain that HTML file and not accidentally include something in that unclosed tag? I often format with indenta

If it's possible to do with vanilla JS in any environment then it's not cheating.

C is fast and maybe has predictable performance, but, for example, strcmp(), strlen(), strncmp() are not as fast (and also secure) as C++ std::string analogs, unless you don't help a bit by storing the string lengths.

Some AI videos are harder and harder to distinguish from real ones. This terrifies me, since it's not that obvious AI fake that some average grandmother would fall for. In short videos, it is more difficult to distinguish AI fakes from

Weird. If V8 produces different optimized codes for different loops, this might be true on some CPUs. But when I get 100% convergence when increasing the repeats, this becomes a bit suspicious. Also, it might be some timing difference relat

Yes, It's called ShadowChicken, and it has negative implications for debuggability. To make debugging tolerable, JavaScriptCore added an (intentionally silly) mechanism called ShadowChicken: a shadow stack used by Web Inspector that ca

Yes, it's proxy. If there are no serious privacy concerns, I think it's fine to use it (if there is no other option).

Again, it seems we are arguing because of our subjective differences in the title correctness and rigor. Personally, I would not expect such title even from a pop-math type article. At least it should be more obvious from the title. "T

Yes it's "likely" to be transcendental, maybe there are some evidences that support this, but this is not a proof (keep in mind that it isn't even proven to be irrational yet). Similarly, most mathematicians/compute
