Because it's a basic site with a handful of pages with a blog that is built as a single page app. All the HTML of the page is generated by Javascript and dumped into the lone div inside the body. So, you take the big hit at first load

For me personally, I would rather corporations be honest with their customers, investors, and employees. I know it's unfair to generalize but the average behavior of corporations in the last few, well forever, hasn't been good. Fo

For the time being I would assume you would notice the 360 degree camera making its way through your house. That is, until we work out using a stable wormhole as the means of observation.

I don't necessarily think the complaint is that they are incompetent because they are female. The complaint of gender bias is still valid even if the people who benefited from the bias are fully capable of the job. If it can be shown t

I worked at a company that was purchased and the new management switched us to this type of system. During my time previous the buyout I had practically doubled my salary through reviews. With the new system I was one of two who got the hig

Just because a feature was added doesn't mean you need to make use of it. You can still style a website using well-documented and easy-to-use CSS Level 2.1 if you really want to, it'll still work. If you feel even that's too

This "no table for layout" thing is so strong that people keep insisting that I am saying table elements for layout. I am literally saying "using table elements for a table" and not "layout with a table". It is

That's not that big a deal. Today's high end gaming is tomorrow's mainstream gaming and the day after tomorrow's budget gaming. If the market wants it, the market will get it.

You work with what you have. But, I would be curious if the state doesn't have different teams to cover different sections of the state to alleviate that problem. If they don't, then they're doing a bad job of it. I would hop

No, you don't understand. I don't want to use tables for layout, I want to use tables to display a good old-fashioned table. A table displayed in an otherwise normally marked up page. That is what's getting the pushback. I gu

>> Those who obey the rules are at the bottom of society and those who break the rules (in clever ways) are at the top. This is not exclusive to capitalism. It actually goes against the basic idea of a free market.

Depends, there are a level of technologies on cars based around accidents that require more money to obtain. Small, cheap car that meets bare minimum safety regulations versus big, expensive car that goes beyond required safety regulations.
