Slightly off topic but this code in example #5: get() { return new Promise((resolve, reject) => { fetch(`${baseAPI}/heroes`) .then(response => response.json()) .then(json => resolve(json)) .catch(err => { reject (err); }); }); } Why not just: get() { return fetch(`${baseAPI}/heroes`) .then(response => response.json()); }
A: No.
Long A: Org-mode is plain text. So it org-modes, but not in a meaningful way.

In general, one should serve HTML on the web unless you're doing something that requires JavaScript. JS is a big security/privacy risk. At the moment, I keep JS and CSS off by default on my main browsing profile, overriding it with umatrix when a site requires it and it looks useful enough to bother.
In general, one should consider the audience of the content, not NoScript users, in this case. > JS is a big security/privacy risk. No, 3rd party JS (and 3rd party cookies, JS regardless) allow you to be tracked. And ad-blockers deal with that. Blocking 1st party JS is of tenuous benefit w.r.t security/privacy.
Just say no to those ligatures.

I can't speak for gp, but the reason I whitelist Javascript is because the dozens of third party scripts pages load provide no benefits to me as a user and only waste my bandwidth and cpu while risking my security and privacy. Sometimes the first-party scripts do something useful and I enable them. That a simple document with embedded videos "needs" js to load at all is sheer lunacy. The modern web is a massive house…
One of the increasingly popular uses of JS is to save bandwidth. Using JS, you can ask the browser if the user is on a metered connection or an unlimited one, what their estimated bandwidth capacity is, what their real resolution is, and load appropriate assets (or conditionally load content). With JS disabled, a user on a pay-per-kilobyte 360x640 cellphone is going to get assets deemed acceptable on the manager's 14…
That said, given my experience of running the web with NoScript, I'd be surprised if those sites that double the usage when they can't detect these things come anywhere close to eating up all the bandwidth I'm saving by not loading auto-playing video ads.

The audience for this site is front-end developers. Front-end developers don't tend to view the web with NoScript. Just like 99% of users don't view the web with NoScript.
Is it just for front-end developers? I'm a back-end developer, but, when I wanted to indent that HTML in order to post it, I switched over to the instance of vscode that I virtually always having running in order to use its pretty printer.
1 out of 15 examples (the Docker one) don't involve HTML or JS. (And backend JS devs are generally pro-JS so likely aren't using NoScript either).
Do you use NoScript? Maybe you do and you're the <1%, but fact is even if you do, both you and GPP turned it off to view the site already ...
In the spirit of cranky HN bikeshedding, I present: The page body, as seen by a NoScript user: Web developers: Please, you can do better than this.

Please know that no one really cares. You must realise you cannot expect to consume our applications but only on your own terms. Theres no contract saying you should ONLY serve HTML on the web.

Is there a way to have intellisense sense work with python dictionaries? It seems like intellisense for json would be a similar issue as nested dictionary representations in json, but I can’t find anything that does this and don’t want to use another class just for faster coding.
You'd need access to the runtime environment in order to do that. That said I wish somebody would make an IDE that would tightly integrate IPython so I could get IDE autocompletion in a paused test. I spend way too much time writing code in IPython prompts and copying it back.

That's bezerk. You should turn off the CPU in your computer, too, and just use the screen and keyboard. The CPU is where all the security breaches happen.
