Is that like "I don't know PHP so I'll make PHP in Javascript"?

I'm really embarrassed to say that I use git and didn't really know this. This is due to me first learning the minimum I needed to know about git during a time crunch and then lazily not ever reading about it more.

Perl code:

$divideby = 1;
$count = 1;
foreach (my $entry in $options) {
    $html .= "<td>a checkbox and label using values from $entry</td>";
    if ($count / $divideby == 4) {
        $html .= "</tr>\n<tr>";
        $divideby++;
    }
    $count++;

Odd, seeing that PHP itself is a templating engine, that has massively grown out of its original purpose.

(By the way that code you quoted is not PHP, it's Perl.)

Html in code is bad, but code in templates is bad. There's more code than html in all rewrites I've seen - really, what's the point either way?

You're telling me its impossible to create a completely cryptographically secure communication application in the browser? Thats an interesting claim.

What is it about browser based applications that makes them impossible to achieve security?

Is there a reason they can't just replace (what I assume is) their own implementation of HMAC with a small wrapper around OpenSSL, since they're already recommending that and it's part of the standard library?

I wish I could dump large bits of my company's codebase on here, because I could demonstrate quite clearly the ways in which dumb people use whitespace.

It doesn't really have anything to do with tabs vs spaces, though--at least where I work, it seems to be more "this script won't run, so I'll just add more braces at the end until it will" kind of stuff.

Not quite the same thing, but how about a while-else?

code:

n = 5
while n != 0:
    print n
    n -= 1
else:
    print "welp"

One of my old coworkers loved to put for loops on one line.

code:

for (var i = 0; i < j; i++){ if ( i > 10) fartbong(); else if (i == 5) { yep(); still_one_line(); } else console.log('dog');}

Some were even longer than this.

The "argument" for NodeJS was that there were a shitload of JavaScript "developers" and NodeJS let them spread to doing server-side stuff without using a sensible language.
