Interesting exercise/experiment. It parses JS into a syntax tree, then puts it back together to JS again. Not sure if that can be called a "compiler"? Admirable effort to write the comp…

The substance of the text has merit, but it was difficult to get through a whole article written in ALL CAPS. It also makes it look less professional.

The paper covers a range of topics - OOP, DOM operations and events, AJAX, animation, touch - much of it modelled on jQuery. There is no copyright or author attribution, which is surprising, since the…

What a coincidence! Earlier today, I was wondering whether SSH could be used in place of GPG for encrypting messages; a common answer was that SSH was designed for a different purpose and that it woul…

This article brings back some memories of pre-Internet days. 12 years old with an NEC PC-9801, dialing up a local BBS of techies and motorcycle enthusiasts. This led to getting deep into a BBS written…

The fact that this fungus is strongly antibiotic-resistant and so far has only been found in healthcare settings, suggests it may be "iatrogenic" (resulting from activities of healthcare pro…

This reminds me of a recent article by the author of Redux, who wrote ["You might not need Redux"]( https://medium.com/@dan_abramov/you-might-not-need-redux-be4... ). It …

I really liked this article, and I thought other web developers would enjoy it too. The concept is to write functional UI components which are decoupled from the DOM rendering engine, such as React, h…
