The name of the game in web development today is Node/React, Angular javascript et al.
Which is why the biggest site on the internet is programmed in PHP.
The paper doesn't seem to discuss just how they are going to get these molecules into cancer cells, but not in healthy cells. That seems like the more important issue. After all, if you can get a particular chemical inside of cancer cells, while avoiding healthy cells, there are any number of ways to kill them.

“Recently, I was asked if I was going to fire an employee who made a mistake that cost the company $600,000. “No”, I replied. “I just spent $600,000 training him – why would I want somebody to hire his experience?” -- Thomas John Watson Sr., IBM
For a while, we had the inverse relationship - it was the browsers which all defined their own behaviours, and to interact with it, you had to know exactly which browser and version you were running inside in order to know how to make a call which got the result that you wanted.
Notably, such society would be a lot more violent, as anger is one of the more prevalent feelings and rational rules and laws constrain people acting out in anger.
Caring about people's anger does not imply allowing people to express their anger violently in any manner they may choose. It implies accepting that people will feel anger, and then understanding and addressing the reasons they feel that.
Long term, caring about people's feelings of anger should result in us minimizing a lot of the problems that cause people to feel anger.
There are 130 million paid subscriptions (at at least $10 per month) and 3m artists. $2 per subscription would be almost....
almost $87 per month per artist?
Doesn't seem like much.
Being the only source of accessories is not an issue - you are a monopoly, but you are not abusing your position as a monopoly provider. Being a monopoly is not a crime, nor is it an ethical problem.
Using your monopoly position to exclude competition is the problem.
In your example, preventing others from providing accessories for your devices is an abuse of your monopoly position.
Everybody except sub-saharan Africans were originally "white" for example.
Except that they weren't... IIRC, Irish and Italians weren't originally "white"...
I do not look forward to every cable having 52 different connectors.

It's not about whether there are 52 connectors, but rather whether we are willing to accept them...
No, we want to create an appropriate legislative framework, law enforcement process, judicial process, and social contract for online activity which mirrors the legislative framework, law enforcement process, judicial process, and social contract for offline activity, accounting for the lower barriers to socially unacceptable behaviour online.
Modern email is protected by end to end encryption
Where?
SMTP between mail servers *might* be encrypted under TLS, and SMTP/IMAP between client and server is probably protected by TLS. But the message is received in the clear at each hop. There is no end-to-end encryption.
Lotus Notes defaulted to signing and encrypting messages within an organisation, but even it has to fall back to cleartext messages once it wants to send to anyone else. And everyone loves to hate Notes.
PGP provides the ability to do end-to-end encryption, but no-one cares about PGP today.
So how is "modern email" encrypted "end-to-end"?
Security researchers at ERNW have detailed a vulnerability, BlueFrag, that lets attackers silently deliver malware to and steal data from nearby phones running Android 8 Oreo or Android 9 Pie.
The problem, as you might imagine, is that many of the affected devices have either lost software updates or don't receive them consistently.
As the owner of two Android devices purchased in late 2017, one Sony and one Motorola, both of which have stopped receiving security updates, it is beyond shameful that a product which is still covered under the manufacturer's warranty (24 months in Europe) will remain unpatched, leaving users with only one true safeguard of not using Bluetooth — an advertised feature which consumers paid for.
