@Lighty Your punishment for criticising CSS will be to live for one year in a world of iframes and table-based websites, gifs and whole sites based on flash.
@Ninefingers yeah it was a bit painful for me to do that, but I'd been meaning to look at node for a while (it crops up on tests sometimes), so I'll need to use them at some point anyway....
There is mention of not wearing short skirts; does that mean skirts are required for women when wanting to visit places like churches, the Vatican, etc.
@Lighty Still doesn't make sense. If they don't allow short skirts, the logical conclusion is that if you have to wear a skirt, then it must not be short.
If a venue has a rule that says "You're not allowed to drink strong alcohol on this premises", would you say "Does that mean that I'm required to drink some kind of alcohol?"
i think its handy, because if there is a NaN (in other validation function where it checks if its filled out or not) adds a red colour to the input field, using twitter-bootstrap's CSS
@RоryMcCune I'd love to answer you, but I can't. If I want to write something complex for my little embedded device (grow up, @Terry), then I'd go with C. If I want to test something small on some web page, then I'd go with PHP. Currently, if I wanna build a web app, I'd go with Node.JS.
perhaps it's 'cause I'm not a real developer, but the idea of being equally conversant in a wide range of languages seems odd, I'd always have a preference
@RоryMcCune I completely agree, and I don't think it's possible. That's why I'm not a dev. at heart. I use whatever tool that is good enough to do the job.
When it comes building software, that's out of my league.

@ThomasPornin Maybe no one is actually good at software development, the world is doomed and we should all go back to planting crops and hunting wild animals.
@ThomasPornin Anyway, on a more serious note, a large part of "modern" software development is knowing what libraries are available for a particular language. That's difficult to do for multiple languages.
So I officially switched to Firefox .. so far so good. Haven't noticed any problems and I can have at least double the number of tabs open as in Chrome per same amount of consumed memory and it doesn't bork up sound and other I/O trying to hardware accelerate beyond what's possible. Even made everything else exactly the same, addons, looks (well, almost but same useful area), startup and new tab behavior...
Personally, I perform all my online activities under the assumption that it could be all printed out and shown to my mother, my employer, and the pope (not necessarily in that order).
@TerryChia Haven't so far ... and I did frequently in Chrome, sometimes even BSOD because my system disagreed with its resource use and prioritization. It even runs raster if not exactly as smooth (but good enough)
@TildalWave Firebug has things as step-by-step debuggin in console and script tab (as in, it runs through the script on execute, and lets you look at the changes step-by-step) :3
> I'd rather have 10 hours per week of quality coding experience than 40 hours in the Java mines maintaining someone's VibratorFactoryVisitorSingleton.
@TildalWave Cookies. Firebug makes working with cookies super simple. I've never bothered to try and figure out how to work with the in the FF debugger because Firebug works so well, and Chrome is utterly retarded in this aspect.
@TildalWave I also just like the Firebug UX better than the OOTB debugging tools in Firefox. It feels more like Chrome's debugging tools to me, where the OOBT tools feel like IEs.
@Xander well considering that just firing up Chrome eats up more resources than now using FF for hours with all the tabs I need open I think I can afford one or two more plugins :)
What's surprising about FF is how fast they moved from "I hate it" to "I love it". Seems only like a year ago that I absolutely disliked FF, even considered it a bloatware. How things change LOL
@raz Sometimes there isn't a great option, and you just have to either pick the least bad, or go to off-topic and write a custom reason. I think I picked "unclear what you're asking" for that one, since the things he would like compared are not directly comparable, so unless he can clarify so the question makes sense, it's not a real question.
@TerryChia I was responding to "not hip enough" requirement... but modern C++, e.g. C++11, is very powerful and can be used almost without ever typing "new" and "delete".
For the security/crypto heads: In Finland, now it's more and more popular to ditch username/passwords for government service login and instead use the new government-issued ID card that is equipped with a smart card chip that serves an SSL client cert.
I was testing it today. So cool!
I shoved my card in the computer, and logged in to the tax authority and did my tax papers in 3-4 minutes.
@Adnan Here we use a shitty-secured "DigiD" service that runs on old windows 2003-type service and is maintaned for which city you live in (every city has its own server it seems), whith the best security evah -.-
There are now tons of CA's, many unrecognizable without a lookup or reference, that are trusted by default in major OS's - and while there have been attempts by the NSA and others to "hack" or otherwise exploit the root CA's, is there anything preventing the NSA from becoming a CA itself? it cert...
@Undo The reason would be that you want to visit some site, or use some application that requires that certificate. If you are confident that you will not need to do that, or that you can work around it, then there is no reason.
@TildalWave Nobody made the claim that there would not be consequences for doing what you want with your own computer.
@TildalWave Even entirely legal decisions, such as punt-kicking it across the room when it has given you some displeasure does not come without consequences, such as the potential need to purchase a new one should you in fact decide that you wish to use a computer at any point in the future.
I go look at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada and my browser on my office machine (IE 9.0) warns me that "Java has been blocked because it is obsolete and must be upgraded".
hmm tried setting to Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; MSIE 9.0; WIndows NT 9.0; en-US)) but not seeing JAva here yet (that said I am just emulating with FFox at the moment)

Whats the difference between Oauth protocol and https protocol?
