The reason I never use Heredoc is because you need to abandon your indentation, otherwise your tabs/spaces get included in the string. Is there a way around that?

Your English is great. I too follow the demo scene and got hooked on a JS1K thread on HN several years ago, and stayed since then. I like how the top rated comment isn't the lowest hanging fruit, which seems to be the case on every other internet forum.

Single-page apps are forgivable for media oriented sites, so the video/music can keep playing as you navigate the site. in the past this was done with pop-up players and was generally messier, so I like SPAs for this.

Literally every other type of website on the planet should use traditional loading pages.

Was this the birth of i2hub?

I remember the first time I saw a file download faster than 80mbps was using i2hub. It was 4am and I remember thinking at the time "shit, I'm gonna get flagged" and sure enough my dorm internet was disconnected the next morning. Fun times.

TheVerge purposefully left that out of the headline for clickbait. It's really not hard to write "Amazon's Older 2G/3G Kindles" or "Lose Their Cellular Connections"

Yes, but the author is most likely using a Win API that is known to exist since that operating system & service pack. I doubt they tested every version, unless they are the curious type :)

Assuming the lowest wage possible at $7.25, you can make $100 dollars in one week; that's only 14 hours of work... 3 hours per weekday.
