The Sputnik version. That indeed reminds me I swapped the wifi card for an Intel one. Because they are better supported and it was cheap. The original one was definitely working though.

How much is he able to influence the British Virgin Islands? As they seem to be one of the top havens for years. If he is, and being a leader in the push for reform, what was on his agenda for BVI?

Not meant to be negative, just another take on some of your points: * Dyson has a factory in a country with low wages. * Dyson uses modern styling in their product lines. * Dyson has a strong brand. (* Dyson knows about electrics) It sounds

Yes, it's a smug joke, but I think it's a funny joke nonetheless (if you got the context). Don't take it too serious. So many good things happen in the JavaScript ecosystem. Nothing is perfect. This kind of criticism can help

Was there ever a slowdown? I only recently started playing (learned about it here). I'm pretty impressed by its quality. Version Alpha 19 runs pretty smooth on my Ubuntu XPS 13.

This isn't really readable on Chrome on Android. Seems like a viewport related issue.

As a European I consider trains to be the most comfortable way of traveling available today. Planes have these awkward boarding procedures and trains, even in economy, have nice amounts of moving space. It is so mind-boggling to me how trai

Why this forced line between work and non-work? Haven't you ever had a moment that your work was so interesting that you wanted to share it with someone else in your 'non-work' time? I would say: talk about what interests you

Does that mean you assume reducing population to be easy/easier? Increasing our habitat isn't simple. But it at least is likely to get more feasible over time. While reducing population seems to be the opposite of our 'nature

I absolutely didn't intend to say anything about the importance of education. The transfer of knowledge is one of the most important features of humankind. The comment was intended solely as an extra view on the overpopulation subject.

> Education is the best way of reducing population. Going slightly off topic. Overpopulation can be solved in 2 ways: reducing population or expanding our habitat. Education contributes to both, but the second sounds like a more feasib

You can choose a different phrase in the settings. Wouldn't that help? Something without 'okay' maybe?

Not much. These are actually the Web API attribute names you should use when accessing these attributes from a non-HTML language (e.g. JavaScript). The React folks didn't make them up.

w3schools might have gotten a bit better lately, but please use MDN as a reference: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/cla... They offer so much more context.

I don't agree either. The first part of the argumentation is indeed based on the author's feelings. The second part I don't think is an issue for most real world use-cases (Objects, Strings and, to a lesser extent, Numbers).
