Really? Seems like it’d be more reliable and a lot faster to just hop in one of the hundred rickshaws on every street. Besides the fact that they’ll overcharge you if you’re a tour…

My school’s JS IDE [1](“JavaScript without the bad parts”) has a history feature that is just a scrolling list of thumbnails of the code at every change. The IDE doesn’t have many …
