Definitely cheeky. All work on CodePen is by default MIT. Looking at the first demo on the homepage, the act name is “cpmirror”, so fair to say people looking to jump on making money from others work is a big incentive... but also, what’s n

Google will also happily surface a stackoverflow article from 2010 about how to solve a js problem... frustrating the top 3 answers will be with jquery, when its not the approach someone would take in the last 5 years. Definitely frustratin

Up until recently, if you left the country, Australia had no real way to make you pay back the loan since they wouldn't track your income and would see no tax return. Last year new rules came into place to claim back income from people

One of the biggest wins here is this little tidbit: > When you install Puppeteer, it downloads a recent version of Chromium (~71Mb Mac, ~90Mb Linux, ~110Mb Win) that is guaranteed to work with the API. A lot of the chrome interface libs
