Have you missed all the posts on intercooler.js - http://intercoolerjs.org/

More up to date cache of /r/programming and /r/python?

Hello, I am a cubicle prisoner with no direct access to reddit programming and reddit python. The cache for both [1][2] seems to be out of date. Are there more up to date sources for these resources?[1] http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:www.reddit.com/r/programming [2] http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:www.reddit.com/r/python

Re:Intercooler.js – Making AJAX as easy as anchor tags on Monday November 07, 2016 @11:19AM (#12892203)

    <!-- When this button is clicked an AJAX POST request is sent to /example and the 
         response content is swapped in to the body of the button -->
    <button ic-post-to="/example">
        Click Me!
    </button>

But what if I want the response to populate the content of another HTML element? E.g. if I wanted an accordion-style FAQ where when you click on the question (or on a plus-sign before the question), the div below the question is loaded with the answer from the server via AJAX.

I'd never heard of Roedelius. Kind of an interesting minimalist piano style. Very likeable. I'm listening to "self-portrait" (or at least that's my translation of the German).

    > The idea of savoring experiences is a good start.
Sort of. But real Buddhist mindfulness would call that 'savoring' craving. Nirvana lies in lack of attachment to the rise and fall of phenomena, not savoring the rise.
and here's mine. Torch up a phatty and inhale.

    > I'd bet it's inversely proportional to the number of things we have available to worry about.
When I was financially free I almost went crazy from lack of stress.

    > Combine the power of Java and your existing investments with the simplicity of JavaScript.
I would much rather use Clojurescript and Clojure to cover this technical area.

Beyond even that, Google is in sore need of some creative people with business sense. They continually create and cancel products. And the products they create in general just dont fly. Besides email, search engine and ads, they just fluster about confusedly.

I dont see the application myself either. Why not leverage existing robust technologies like a relational database?
>It has a flagship SoC rather than a mid-tier SoC.

What is "SoC" an abbreviation for?

Also see PlantUML, which also has experimental code generation tech.
I fought like hell to install all the deps before throwing in the towel.
It seems that the body cam often "falls off" just before the cops tase, beat the shit out of, or kill someone.
Yes, a bank is a business not a charity. Customer service is important but saving their own skin appears to matter more.

    ORM mapping into Java?
An ORM would not have lower-level semantics would it?

Holding wealth in the dollar means holding wealth in a depreciating asset. Gold, silver, bitcoin, real estate, etc much preferred.

But given that my income and expenses are head up (at the moment), I'm in the same boat ... 7k net in and 7k out, a lot of which is me re-buying my own CC debt with loans from lending club, etc.
