We call the things that, "sit in the middle," Middleware.

Did you use Shoelace, or is the name a coincidence?

Prabhakar Raghavan is Search Engine syphilis.

tl;dr - It's okay to refactor code now and then.

I bought my first keg with the cash made from un-fucking Dreamweaver output.

You should take a look at Mermaid.

Edit: words are hard.

I'm another git-flow fan. Have not encountered a situation that would motivate me to change workflow. We use submodules all over the place, too.

YIj54yALOJxEsY20eU has compromised on their privacy values by not including a special character in their username.

We found out two days later that Becky didn't blow anyone, no one had herpes, and the entire field hockey team got mononucleosis because they share water bottles.

Mostly nothing. The Unicode Consortium isn't run by the US government. Neither is ANSI nor IEEE. The IETF and ISO are international bodies technically headquartered in Switzerland. FIPS picks standards, it doesn't author them.

Congratulations, you're already living in a world where "smart people [are] working for other smart people."

Wait hang on...

did not blow up, it faded, with its oriental counterpart well-flourishing for 10 centuries after that

How long do you think a century is? Did you mean to say decade? Even then, the US wasn't really a global superpower until the 1940s. There are people still alive that remember the Dust Bowl. If your question is, "what happens to regulatory standards 100 years after the US is gone," I'm not sure what quality of answer you're expecting.

For someone who doesn't want "chud shit," you sure do leave some pretty huge doors open for it. Especially when you don't go into any detail of what these regulatory bodies do. It reminds me of 14 year olds loudly declaring "I don't want any drama..." before "...but I think Becky got mouth herpes from blowing Steve at band camp."

The customer was UniSuper, a $125B Superfund. It was not the confused Grandma in the thumbnail.
