    I'm surprised people still think of Perl like this. You realize Perl is being used by major sites such as imdb, booking.com, and duckduckgo? Maybe try watching the video before mak…

    I have been slowly migrating away from my gmail account and I intend to delete it very soon. I highly recommend Protonmail as an alternative web-based email provider.

    It depends on the type of application and the requirements and expectations of its users. I wouldn't recommend having a web app talk to its database over a WAN, for example. Unless…

    But you are part of a very tiny proportion of users smart enough to realize this. And it doesn't address the issue of someone sending private (or incriminating) messages to you, wh…

    Well said. It's why I have no respect for people who work in the porn industry, however successful they may be.

    Why is this a problem? What's wrong with living a reclusive life, if that's what you want to do? I live alone and don't go outside unless I have to buy food. I work online, and mak…

    That depends on whether the Promise specification gets cancellations. I like fetch's clean API, but being able to cancel my ajax requests is essential.

    One reason I still use jQuery is because its ajax() API is much nicer than the XMLHttpRequest API. Edit: another reason: slideUp() / slideDown() are very useful and not easy to imp…

    I was looking at this a few days ago http://www.philips.co.uk/c-p/AC3256_30/3000-series-air-clean... It has good reviews on Amazon, but it's not cheap.
