    > Yes. However, one thing you fail to see is that it directly compiles to function calls. I understand how JSX works, stop patronizing me. The only thing I fail at is seeing how an…

    You can just use DOM templates with Vue.js. Basically write your HTML the way you normally would and add the Vue.js attributes that tells Vue what to bind with. If JavaScript is di…

    I believe the patent expires in 2021, however I'm sure their lawyers will likely find a way to extend it well into the future.

    It's too bad SawStop saws are incredibly expensive (and going up in price Feb 1st.) They are definitely worth it compared to the cost of an injury, however many people are priced r…

    I'm skeptical that this book will ever be finished. The last time I bought an unreleased book authored by John Resig it took two and a half years before it was published. If I reme…

    I'd love to see a tutorial for JSONB to be used as an alternative to an EAV model or a hybrid approach.

    I mostly hope they are fixing the terrible performance issues. Seems like I'm always waiting for photos to load properly.
