Even make her perform a very awkward wink.

setInterval(() => {var style = document.getElementsByClassName("iris")[0].style; style.display = style.display != 'none' ? 'none':'block'}, 2000)

This is brilliant, really well written as well.

That's an awesome eulogy. I tried to describe to my son this morning the kind of man Stephen Hawking was and struggled - I wish I had read this first!

Quite surprised at the use of gifs on this page, just the images weigh in at 92MB.

If the results can't be trusted, don't use Google or (especially) Facebook as your news sources. As understand it, Google will aggregate its news - it hasn't got someone picking the articles. Stick with an established news source - i'll pick the BBC because I live in the UK.

For all the 'power' these smart phones have given us, it fills me with confusion, pity and annoyance when I walk in to someone's house only to see all the inhabitants looking down at their phones. Occasionally, they'll be engaging on the same content/media, reacting digitally and sometimes (as it's usually humorous) verbally. I've banned phones at the dinner table (mine only) and for a future vacation, will set out very clear 'acceptable usage' limits to my wife. I'd like to think I could give up mine but still a sucker for a good meme to lift me times are low.

For me there's too many eye brow raising parts to this story so i'm sceptical of its validity. Still, it prompts those 'did you hear about the x that done y and z hit the fan' stories.

I absolutely agree. From an outsider, the reaction from Garadget will stay in my mind far longer than the initial review. Imagine this in a bricks and mortar high-street shop? 'The customer is always right' is a difficult but noble stance - if a customer is being difficult, suck it up, be sickly nice then go out the back and scream when they've left.

I wonder how many javascript libraries they're up to already?

I had to move off WebStorm after the sheer amount of memory it used to chew up.

Agree - VSCode is such a good IDE, I'm constantly seeing it replace editors other devs have relied on for some time.

You adhere to the traffic regulations in GTA? :)
