I think you're getting Babel and SystemJS confused - the latter allows you to use TypeScript files as the source attribute in script tags and have it transpiled within the browser, which is sometimes used in examples and tutorials beca

Book two is very intense and gripping, but it features a different cast of characters from the first which some people find jarring. The third book returns to the characters from the first, and is definitely where most people find that they

It's simply that Portugal hasn't legalised anything, so they're not in conflict with their treaty obligations. The same as the Netherlands, use is simply decriminalised, not legalised.

None of those countries legalised - they merely decriminalised usage, avoiding having to break their treaty obligations.

Do you have any actual evidence of that? Sounds like an even more implausible scenario than the Venezuela one that turned out to be just endless hype.

My knowledge is that the rights to some albums end being packaged and sold in large batches, which can lead to some oddness when only some of an artist's back catalogue is included - not that uncommon to see on Spotify, which also has

Until Houdini is available everywhere so that you can hook into the CSS engine and provide your own custom layout managers, I think masonry layouts will always require some JS. Using CSS grids might make the code simpler though. PS I think

You're missing the fact that an exchange can execute trades where they're both the buyer and the seller, and so they don't end up spending anything overall. Illegal on actual stock markets, but very easy to do in the murky re

It's sometimes called "level 2", stock markets do charge fees for access to the feeds - at least the LSE did when I worked on a site that showed the information :)

I'm not sure you could do exactly that even with Stylish as there's no way in CSS to match elements based on their style - you could define a global font-weight just by adding this to "chrome/userContent.css" in you

Probably you're finding it simple because your Gulp build script does nothing more than defer to Rollup - a module bundler like Webpack - to handle JavaScript bundling. You're literally just using Gulp to watch the file system and

In what part of London aren't there multiple cab firms operating locally? Certainly not "as far out" as Zone 2, where I've caught a cab from dozens of times, and that's not even thinking about firms like Addison Lee

It's certainly not obvious, I'd agree with that. It's a kind of a hybrid of tabs, sessions and bookmarks as far as I use it.

No, iTunes on Windows was at least as shit as it was on OS X, both in terms of awful UI and the sheer bloat of it and all the extra crap it installed.

So it's a clone of Ethereum, managed by Bitcoin-style consensus (see UASF), that has no purpose or design goal, and right now isn't even finished. I can totally see how that's worth $250 million!
