Who happen to keep their jobs no matter what happens to the company.

We believe in meritocracy, egalitarianism and equal opportunity disdain for all bad people after all.

Multi-paradigs languages, if done right, combine the best of two imperative & declarative worlds beside they're very friendly to beginners and they don't have this intimidating quality that other "pure" languages like Haskell have.

Also, procedural coding is easy to do and carries low mental overhead in writing and not every programming problem has be modeled in functional terms or worldview to be solved. Sometimes, it's economical and efficient just to get the work done in two lines of code without going through all those functional hoops just to capture a field value in some form.

What you're saying amounts to basically an instruction not a relation or declaration in the programming sense of the word.

We Arabic speakers also enjoy or suffer , it depends on your perspective, from this phenomenon as we mostly speak in dialect all the time but in formal contexts esp. in writing, we use the Modern Standard Arabic instead. However, writing in dialect or MSA derived languages is becoming more acceptable in literature and the press at least where I come from, that's Egypt.

BTW I'm centrist on the issue of gun ownership & carrying but I just wanted to point out the flaw in your deduction.

No wonder Jeb Bush is taking a lot of flack for speaking Spanish in public when you got crowd like this.

I took a look at Hiccup. It looks interesting and promising but I'm an indentation oriented developer and that's why I favor Jade and Sass and the likes.

Also, I like the design philosophy that they chose with Jade by absorbing JS in HTML and not the other way around like in JSX where HTML & CSS being subordinates to JS thus making the process a whole lot more tedious and time-consuming.

Handlebars is an application of JS (Node) for templating engines and so is Jade. Even though I still prefer Jade over Handlebars for mostly static/frontend oriented web apps.

For people big on JSX, can they tell us please what do they like most about this framework that they don't find equivalents for in Jade or Handlebars for example?

I'm afraid I don't share your perspective, runners can easily get performance feedback without going overboard with fancy and shiny gadgets.

I'm a regular runner and I live in a coastal city and I frequently take my runs by the seaside. I start at a fixed point and set my finish point within the confines of a certain district/neighborhood and when I can complete the race as I had predicted, I consider this to be success and progress. Sometimes, I set instead a time limit to cover a certain distance and see if I could make it within that limit.

So, no runners can certainly measure their progress and performance improvements/shortcomings in very simple metrics if they so desire.

I don't see this argument holding water and it seems to me that my interlocutor is comfortable with Apple stealing/copying other people's work but when they do to Apple it's all hell breaks loose, double standards maybe?

So, if you think that Ruby or Python could get things done for you and you're very familiar with them, go for either and get it done but to pick on Node just because you don't quite grasp its inner workings is really odd of you and the whole reasoning behind your critique is rather absurd.

The leading 0 denotes probable instability in the API that devs are willing to take the risk for and act upon.

You're familiar with SemVer, aren't you?

I don't think so. The iPad, iPod and iTunes sales are suffering and the Apple Watch and Apple Music are lagging and facing huge obstacles in making headway in the market.

So, this leaves Apple with the iPhone and Mac products that are keeping it afloat and if we factor into our calculations that the iPhone is getting old and slowly tiring, we can see that Apple will be in for a bumpy ride in the next 5 - 10 years that it should be ready for.

We have npm already to cover the plugins functionality and on the front end it's a framework-a-palooza with libraries and themes popping every other hour.

So, it can be done and I believe it can be easier and simpler whether for the end user or the developer as developing for WP is not really a walk in the park and there's a lot of gotchas and magic involved in this daunting process.

I am not talking about this particular person here, I'm just talking in general and in principle.

Also, I don't see why there wouldn't be a viable Node blogging platform that could be as user-friendly and as easy as WP if not much more. This definitely is very doable and Ghost and Co promised to achieve to do that but they failed yet to make any meaningful impact on the market.

Some are good at it and can conceal their true intentions and some are not really good.
