I last downloaded popcorn time in 2016 and have used it every waking hour of every day since... wtf are they talking about?

Why do people care so much about the lack of women in tech but don't seem to care at all about the lack of women or men in other fields? And even when they do pretend to care in other fields there is only a push to hire more women in general in various roles but never an explicit push to put them in exactly the same dangerous jobs that are still filled by 99% males.

Meanwhile other users are saying if they don't get 64bit and multi-process they will switch to a different browser. But to make those things happen requires breaking the things you like. They can't win over everyone.

Only on your computer.

> ripping out cool Firefox features like full themes support and tab groups the free up development and test time for these boondoggles. People have nagged them for years for multi-process / process-per-tab and the changes needed to make that happen will break many things. So either break things and deliver the speed/stability features people have been begging for or don't break anything and never satisfy those very vocal users.

The same thing stopping all browsers from dropping support for Quirks Mode.

possible reasons: The developer is dead. The business owner is dead but paid for 6 years of hosting up front. The business has no budget for any changes. The business has no idea something is broken. There is no business, some one just put up a page full of dbz gifs on a free hosting account and it got popular. That person has moved on to more interesting things and has no idea some visitors see a problem. They just keep it up because the ads on the site generate about $50 per year.

Um.... https://kat.cr/usearch/uk%20to... For me that's pretty damn convenient. Drop a .torrent file into a dropbox folder and within the hour all the mp3 files appear on all 10 of my phones/laptops/tablets.

Services should not care about whether or not my password is easy to guess (easy to remember). They should only care about making sure nobody can hack into their data center and steal EVERYONE'S passwords.

If a print out is all that's needed then anyone with knowledge of ctrl + shift + i or photoshop or paint or using a photo copier can do this easily.

And don't teach any typical "web design" GUI applications. Knowing how to really understand text and how to manipulate it, mass find and replace, regular expressions, utf-8 vs ISO Latin 1, line endings, tabs, spaces, byte order marks, etc. These are very useful things to know. On many projects over the years I've had to convert ancient custom storage formats (that luckily all turned out to be plain text files) into mysql data and knowing these things about text itself were essential.

I'd like to suggest:

Intro to HTML itself could be condensed to 1 or 2 days.

A lot of time should be spent on HTML + CSS
and then HTML + DOM + basic JS transitioning to HTML + re-usable JS transitioning to HTML + jQuery
and then the Javascript language itself
and then the best ways to organize your app/site's JS code
and then a server side language
and then HTML FORMS + server side code
Might also be useful to introduce the idea of using DOM outside of browser JS, like with PHP on the server or Node

And don't confuse web *design* (as in graphic design) with web *development*

Full time web developer for 12 years, no vacations, no co-workers, no college, no experience with "real/serious" languages, no math skills, no appreciation for CLI. I suggest some modern quick and easy stuff like frameworks and jquery initially to allow them to have the feeling of actually making something. But after that all the focus should be on foundation skills that would also be useful beyond just websites/webapps. Having those skills will make it possible to quickly pick up whatever else they encounter in the future. But make sure everyone takes a math test before starting the class. I go years at a time without having to use ANY math at all and then when I do need to I take 10x longer than any normal person to build the simplest things.

I've been doing the same from 2002 to present. Around 2009/2010 we started charging extra for IE 6, 7 and now 8.
