Mine didn't in any great detail.

I switched from being a math teacher and union official to web developer at 35 and have loved it!

I'm extremely proud of my tiny contribution to freeCiv. Not sure it's the greatest C code but it sure is a thrill to know that bombard damage is reported now.

Really good! I use flexbox a lot and enjoyed it.

I did not know about key codes and physical position! Thank you!

I used this when I ran a lockdown family zoom quiz,to do music rounds. So much easier and reliable than some scrappy web based version

I was interested to learn about 'no-cors' where you get a sparse response. Was hoping to use it to find out if a web page was being accessed from a client's internal network or not (by trying to get a page that only existed there and inspecting the response)

In the end I didn't get to find out if it worked or not due to boring reasons.

I didn't know about strings and I've been using Linux for years now. I like that there's lots still to learn.

I mean, there's a lot I don't understand about macOS but that's somehow less fun

I have always wondered why this was, compared to DOS!

I feel like mixing these terms up might put off RMS, amongst others?

We support IE11. Mainly high end websites and web apps about employee benefits.

I think one of the main drivers of IE support is clients who will test in IE because it's their default browser or only allowed browser at work.

I'd love to see some stats on page load times etc.

There's a lot of repetitive debate on HN about JS web apps slowing things down and I'd like to know if the effects would be as bad if you could use the latest browser tools unpolyfilled.

I get that this is for learning purposes, but doesn't this tutorial start by making your database insecure?

Isn't he just describing his emotional response though?

I think it's valid to be annoyed about something you specifically allow in your license... So long as you don't try to stop it?

How about a more generalised collaboration system, where you just edit your files lot Cally as standard, but can kind of dial in using o collaboration - a bit like a screen share on a call. So suddenly the people you've dialled can leave comments on your work etc, but when you cut the connection, they can't any more?

I would use vanilla JS rather than jQuery now that most browser compatibility issues are sorted. But most of my work doesn't need to support versions of IE older than 11.

He is pretty horrible. An example of the Everyone Who Likes Music I Do Must Be A Good Person fallacy I held to when I was younger.

I think six hours is pretty good for what is a rather large task?

Thank you - much better to have the text than my paraphrasing.

'Cool's cool.'

I don't have my hard copy here and Google is failing me but this is addressed by Terry Pratchett in (I think) Only You Can Save Mankind.

The context is some teen-agers talking about how it's not cool to say Yo, or Crucial, or Well Wicked, but Cool is always cool.

Would appreciate the full quote if somebody can find!

I haven't got a solution here, but it's extra friction for them to do this, you have a time window for processing and not all trolls will bother, so you would still have a better experience for other users by implementing it

I wrote a tree traversal algorithm to allow some custom logic to be specified in an external JSON that we didn't control... Felt great!

NP, and good on you for having such a good contract!

I would like a browser extension that removes all articles and links to articles where the only source is twitter.

We do this all the time with clients

I made a weekly zoom quiz that stores questions: text, audio, image, video links as json files and it works fine when parsed with Gatsby.

In the UK at least, it's not this generous, even with the legislation from the EU working time directive. What country are you in?

Nitpick - wasn't the SNES 16 bit?

Is this an attitude that is safe for people of all races, though?

Also, can everyone afford to pursue lawsuits?

Yep, I'm pretty sure for the majority of users it's for watching porn or logging in with a different account to something, rather than any expectation of privacy at the other end
