   So then just assume that this is the next step towards the unattainable (during which endeavour we'll discover something better(?)) and go with it? :) I am drawing conclusions here but it seems to me you're implying that simulatin

   Uff, that sounds insane. I suppose they released those "features" gradually and people just went along.

   "Right" and "wrong" can often be quite an over-simplification as well as cultural (among other things)... But I also clarified things in a sibling comment.

   You don't happen to know a good translator..? I was going to try the Garnett version but now I'm having second thoughts.

    Meh, that's his problem if he gets hired due to this and is expected to produce something similar from scratch. Neither one is trying to make money directly off of this, what's the big deal?

    Yup, just wanted to share in case you hadn't scrolled to see the actual price. :)

    If you scroll to the bottom of the page there are some prices as well: "Varjo XR-3 now available for €5495 + XR Subscription" And the subscription seems to be 1.5k/year. :o

    Sounds like a solid/healthy strategy to me. With ignoring package managers, do you mean that you instead of running "npm/yarn install/add <package>" you inspect said package (which does what you need) and cher

    Quite surprised Finland isn't in the top 10, it has similar historical importance here.

    The unattributed precursor to Google Earth. Just finished watching The Billion Dollar Code (four episode miniseries) on Netflix and yeah, "Don't be evil" stopped being a thing quite a long time ago. Broke my heart.

    Wait, so setting this up will give me a REST endpoint where I can send data to, which then gets pushed to my Android phone? So that I can ship any kind of actions/events to my mobile? That's awesome! I've wanted something lik

    I see the definition of SPA as a web app that doesn't require page reloading when navigating. So both a SPA an an MPA can have the same URL structure while the latter requires page refreshes when switching between them. I might be wron

    Wow you seem quite sensitive. It's an analogy from the author's perspective, you don't have to take it personally just because it happens to clash with your own perspective.

    WP admins don't have much control (granularity) over the nginx cache. The options I've seen simply have a single "Purge" button.

    Side note: To my knowledge the only plugin that supports fragmented caching (specific non-cached portions of PHP) is W3 Total Cache.

    Personally I always go with Cache Enabler (by KeyCDN) with nginx. Simple and rock solid. Creates static HTML. For optimum performance (bypassing PHP altogether) configure nginx to try_files (or equivalent in Apache) in the wp-content/c
