2. one var for multiple lines creates additional work for reviewers to figure out whether or not newly added variables are correctly scoped. Save yourself some time, use JSLint or JSHint. 3. There are as a matter of fact more non-developers supporting this RFC than there are opposing it. I'm assumi...

Why?

If I changed my mind when posting and decided to close browser tab, I did that on purpose. I don't want script to second guess my decision. There are cases when you accidentally close a tab. Many times I've hit cmd + q instead of cmd + w. Restore previous session is one of my favorite features. Aut...

I'm asking because another thing to consider is the user's bandwidth. If user's have their phones configured to get E-mail from the same account they get their notifications sent to (like I do), if the images are not cached, that 1-3 KB text E-mail gets doubled to 2-6 KB for the text and HTML and t...

The problem is that, at least in their examples, it uses a structure to design the HTML elements instead of just accepting a block of HTML code. I've found a simple example for ad...

I understand that you don't particularly care for code review, which involves reading the diffs, which is I'm guessing why you attempt to discount readability of diffs as you just did. There are many tools that make reading a diff easier. These tools, even github, make it real easy to see that only...

When I say doesn't support I mean that it shows the raw bbcode in the rich text mode. It doesn't have a WYSIWYG component. Rich Text: This is bold and here is a [custom]custom bbcode[/custom] Raw (spaces added to prevent bbcode from rendering): This is bold and here is a [custom]custom bbcode[/custo...
