(And they just rejected my intern application, which is very sad.)
...which doesn't exist on Windows. So, are Windows git users are all doomed? Or should all Windows users download WSL in order to access this sacred tutorial?
Also, not really related, but from my experience, Kahoot is really popular in education. I bet at least 80% of my classmates in college have used it at least once. I am a bit surprised you never heard about it.
(My NAS isn't strong enough to burn subtitles in real time. Even it does, I just cannot get the fonts to work. All CJK characters are displayed as squares.)
I don't think this "nihilism-ish" view is healthy. Otherwise, you might as well just argue nobody can promise anything, and anyone who believes any promise is a fool.
I think these are some reasons why our mileages differ:
- I need my scripts to work in both Windows and Linux.
- I am not very experienced with bash or other shell.
- Most of my "automation work" only involves reading text from a file, transform it, and write to another file. (Generating SQL commands, doing stats about town names, etc.)
To be honest, I doubt that. Maybe I am special, but if I am releasing some code under GPL, I really don't want it to be used in training a closed source model, which will be used in a closed source software generating code for closed source projects.
However, deciding which language to use for a certain task is a legitimate choice that people to make. When making such decision, people need to analysis the pros and cons of a language. For countless times, I have seen people claiming JavaScript is bad/inconsistent/weird for reasons like `"1" + 1 === "11"` but `"1" - 1 === 0`. All I am saying here is things like these should not weigh too much when deciding whether to use JavaScript.
However, that is not to say JavaScript is without footguns. For example, the classic `[1, 2, 3, 10].sort()`.
If yes, then I agree this is super helpful (and magical).
If not, how is this different from a normal constrcutor (with runtime input validation)?
I kept trying to drag the graph, but ended up selecting a bunch of text, which is a somewhat unpleasant user experience.
- When the user input is plaintext, you will output using .innerText, which means such replacement will actually break those special characters.
- When the user input is actual html (or contenteditable), such replacement will also break those tags. If you don't want tags in the first place, why make so that user inputs html?
