JavaScript
  • I've read different defenses for JavaScript for cases like this, which usually runs somewhere from you shouldn't be doing that anyway all the way up to if you just understood the language better you'd know why. While I agree with both of those points strongly as general principles, JavaScript also violates the principle of least surprise enough to make it concerning.

    For what it's worth, I do like JavaScript. I really don't think that there is any perfect programming language.

  • TIL that science does still not fully understand how cycling works

  • What should I know about buying / replacing a garage door opener?
  • You may just need to adjust the sensitivity of the safety reverse on the door, but to reiterate what everybody else is saying, working on garage doors tends to fall squarely into the camp of "if you have to ask, you need to hire a professional". I do a lot of DIY around my home the garage doors are something that I won't touch for anything but the most basic adjustments.

  • ABC News: DOJ releases proposed rule to reclassify marijuana
