Care to give an example? Are you referring to Unix tools (grep, awk, sed, cat, etc.), piping and redirection, or shell scripting overall?

On object looping: Object.keys(obj).forEach(function (key) { var value = obj[key]; // ... }); Not the best thing, but it works in less lines than: var key; for (key in obj) { if (!Object.protot

Yes; just give me something; I don't care what it really is, as long as it works with how I use it (i.e. adheres to some interface).

Exactly. This is my problem with the `new` syntax . There are still other problems (in my opinion) with the concept of constructor functions. It basically boils down to mixing data (prototype) and code (constructor funciton). Side-effect

Ah; I definitely understand that (and I've felt the pain).

list($firstElement) = $this->method(); array_map(array($this, 'doSomething'), $array); Yes, neither is intuitive. And the syntax sucks. And it's not as easy to read (except sometimes where a method returns a tuple; `list

What's wrong with `data Foo = Bar | Baz { a :: Int }` ? I'm not a day-to-day Haskeller, but I find the record syntax very nice and succinct.

JavaScript. Kill the "new" operator. Make prototypes less magical (i.e. use something like `Object.create` to construct). Secondarily, kill getters and setters. (That includes `Array#length`.) I want code and data, not code, data, and co

I only realized there were examples on the front page after visiting HN. They're completely below the fold for me (1440x900). The examples page had a similar problem. The examples (pretty close to the fold) looked like comments. I went t

Okay, I missed "The mouse will be anchored to that position" part. I really disagree with this part of the proposal. Thanks for pointing it out. However, the comment about the cursor moving to the centre of the screen is an implementatio

The article's suggestion does not say the mouse would be moved or locked by the web program. The program would be able to hide the cursor (which it can already do) and receive 'virtual' mouse coordinates. My main concern is number overflow

Sprite sheets?

That's how I do things (unless a semicolon follows the keyword, as in `return;`). Exception: `typeof` in C# (`typeof(Object)`, for example).

Either Javascript or JavaScript is acceptable.

JSLint complained when I had two `var` statements; it wanted me to merge the two into one. I repeat `var`, so this annoyed me. (Of course, it wasn't hard to fix, but the examples didn't show any multi-`var` usage so it may be a problem fo

I don't have an iOS device, so I can't comment on the app itself. The flavour the site's design adds is excellent. Major props for that. I think it'd be cool if the background was `position: fixed;`. I also really like the social aspect on

It took me a while to figure out this was a slideshow, and that only part of the page is clickable. (Plus, keyboard keys do nothing.)

I didn't check, but I think the 681 includes the CSS and such. The "doctype" part is case-insensitive, according to the pseudostandard on WhatWG.org: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/... I guess your editor was

Three bug reports: In Opera 11, the blog post doesn't show tags, but the main site does show tags. This may be the problem @tsanzer was experiencing. When zooming (ctrl-scrollwheel, e.g.), the tags are not in their correct positions (at le

Good points, but it seems some of that (scrolling, selection, form data, etc.) should be left to the browsers to fix/implement/deal with. Granted, it is a really bad user experience. Seems like this should be made a JS library in the mea
