For me the hump was from the get-go. Following the book, I installed Rust directly, but then i realized that I should've installed it via Rustup. Next, I want a good editing enviro…

To people helping others on the internet who claim to be security professionals, remember to make sure that the person is actually trustworthy, so you're not helping criminals. Eve…

It's an encoding that isn't good at anything: it's neither ASCII-compatible (like UTF-8), nor fixed-length (like UTF-32), but because most characters require only 2 bytes, develope…

If you don't need to dynamically evaluate the code, compiling ES.next code will be more performant, e.g. using Babel.

Perhaps you didn't catch that basically the difference between let and var is that let is block-scoped, while var is function-scoped? let result = 0; for (let i = 0; i

In general, it looks really good. - I'd like some more focus on keyboard navigation. Make sure that everything looks good when tabbing, even if you've used arrow keys first. - Anti…

I note that mozilla.org is on that list. Does anybody know if they're affected?

Oh, didn't know. You could even force highlight colors, by explicitly setting border or outline colors.

Such a simple idea - but it does make it easier to follow. The only problem I have is that it's very mac-centric. On my system the focus color is orange and it looks a bit off. I'd…

Somehow, despite not understanding why exactly we exist, what our purpose is, and that at any given moment we could die and cease to exist, we don't go insane. Do you have any idea…

But I thought the point was that they didn't consider this to be a security vulnerability.

I can't get that to work in Firefox 25.

If you can get a user to click a link which exposes CSS injection, it can be a security issue. For instance, you could change the text of links and buttons, and otherwise trick the…
