It's more of an API issue than a language issue. Node.js offers a file system API, and the W3C File API has wide browser support.

A third-party library simply isn't an option, as any such library would depend on the underlying API.

So... what's wrong with it?

Please, "typing" a "program" in C is not "writing code". If you're not toggling bits from the front panel, you're not writing code. You don't even get into the underlying instructions that are actually doing things.

C is just giving you some very basic concepts. It's not "writing code", it's using an interface that has some basic programming logic for users to practice "concepts".

Do you live in the Unixtown, were everyone specializes in exactly one thing?

I can only imagine the conversations you must have over there: "Hi, I'm Bob and I know Javascript" "Hi Bob, I'm Alice, and I know HTML" "Nice to meet you Alice. Let me introduce you to Carl. He knows CSS. If we got together, we could make a webpage." "What a great idea! I'll call Dora. She knows a cookie recipe. We can put it online If we can find someone who can use Apache."

I'm not going to rehash this with you. If you want to relive the experience, go hunt down the old thread. Maybe you'll understand it the second time around.

My advice to you? Move on with your life. It's not that important. Just let it go.

Ah, I remember. It seems that you missed the entire point of that waste of my time.

The point was that your proclamations were absurd as, if we were to accept them, you'd be forced to that conclusion.

How you came away with the belief that I "believe in homeopathy" is beyond me. After all, I did not, and still do not, agree with your ridiculous assertions.

Ummm... That does not in any way lend support to his laughably absurd claim.

Where did you come up with that? I've never advocated homeopathy.

Wow, no. Where did you come up with that particular bit of complete and total nonsense?

You seem to be under the misapprehension that belief is subject to the will.

Try any undergrad text on epistemology. You seem in dire need of one.

How simple minded. If you only believed that which can be proven to be true, you'd believe very little -- almost nothing.

Manzier!

It's sad, but true. iOS still has the best accessibility options for blind and low vision users. Well, you might as well say it's the only option as it's completely unmatched.

They're used to getting screwed, paying way too much for accessible tech.

I'm starting to seriously doubt your credentials...

That's not an hypothesis, not in the scientific sense at least, as it's not testable. Not for any given combination of 'we' and ___!

I haven't met anyone yet with the interest but not the aptitude. I taught computer programming to adult learners for several years as an optional part of a computer literacy series. I had exactly two students fail to complete the course -- both because they refused to do any of the exercises. You can't learn to program without programming, just like you can't learn to drive without driving.

Programming is absurdly simple. It's been my experience that anyone can learn to write computer programs with surprisingly little effort. This terrifies some people. I'll let you puzzle out why.
