First off, how do you know whether it's doing anything correctly or not? Secondly, what's wrong with how it renders newegg.com? Keep in mind that newegg has more HTML errors than I can count.
Sounds dangerous to me. There could be unintentional side-effects to that kind of aggressive completion. That said, I've never needed that functionality.
In Chrome you CAN sort by type and you can filter to only see that type. In fact, it's trivially easy to do. I'm guessing that you spend most of you time in Firebug and simply don't have the same mastery in Chrome's dev tools. And you're right, your console issue is pretty contrived and so easy to work around as to be a pointless comparison.
A) You're still not getting that those were British companies -- not American, and B) companies like the EIC were essentially an extension of the British government. As corporate as America has become, we still have no analog to that. Ergo, you have no argument here.
No, there weren't. At least, nothing like we have in modern America. Back then they were under the complete control of the state in which they were created and the state would create a charter for a business that could have whatever restrictions they local government cared to add. Violating your charter in any way would generally result in the loss of your charter and the end of your business. Companies typically had restrictions on how big they could grow and usually could not be involved in politics. These are things that never happen in modern America.
A) These were not corporations. There was no such thing in America. The local government could take away your charter to do business at will. You apparently don't know what it means to be incorporated, I suggest you look into it. B) These were English companies.
First off, the EIC was a British company. More importantly, it was granted a royal charter and was, for all intents and purposes, a part of the government. No such thing existed in the US.
In the time of the founding fathers, there were no such things as corporations. Additionally, businesses could be taken out of business by the government at the drop of a hat. They had no protections whatsoever. This was intentional. Of course over time businesses worked the system and got laws passed that allowed for the concept of "corporations" where the owners were largely protected from liability and government prosecution. Because of their protections and lack of regulation, corporations can grow in size almost indefinitely and they now use that weight to influence politics greatly.
But feel free to educate me on how overly regulated we are.
For starters, any full time teacher works AT LEAST 40 hours. There's a lot more work than just in the classroom. Now, you can argue that they don't work all year (unless they teach summer school too) but 40 hours...easily.
Also, the only reason workers feel comfortable with tell their boss that they will quit is that they have a union that helps cover them during the strike and organizes all of it. NOBODY is going to risk losing their house on a whim. It has to be well organized and the negotiation has to be properly managed. Otherwise, it's trivial for employers to manipulate employees into folding. Sorry dude but this shit is all well documented. Maybe you should consider studying history some time instead of browsing the internet.
I hate to tell you this but if you want a website that's actually modern and can compete with similar websites, you HAVE to use javascript. And frankly, most companies don't have the cash to spend on supporting a non-JS version of their website. Accessibility readers have to move with the technology or get standards implemented that allow them to do so.
I'm fine with this so long as noscript can still disable JS for whatever sites I specify (which is all until I whitelist them). In fact, this is the main reason I still use firefox at all. If this goes away, then for me there's really no point in using firefox any longer.
Because if it's officially supported by MSoft, then I have confidence about coding a solution that will run on multiple platforms. If it's random dudes on the internet, they can just lose interest and I would have to be a moron to make a business decision based on that. It also means that Microsoft would be considering Linux in their design decisions.
And Oracle supports Java. Don't play cute. You many not like Oracle (and I sure don't) but they do support the product. I have zero concerns about Java being multi-platform. I cannot say the same thing about.Net.
Very well, Germany. They're doing the same thing. It should be noted, that this is just what we know today. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if numerous other European countries were all doing the same thing.
Given recent events, apparently your freedom is pretty damn illusive in a lot of these other countries as well given that a lot of US allies are doing the exact same thing.
You have to declare yourself an atheist to the government? I don't understand why you have to make any kind of official religious declaration. It's none of the government's business what you believe in.

Maybe I should have made it more clear...there were no corporations IN AMERICA. They simply did not exist.

So at the end of all of this, you have no fucking point to make whatsoever.
Sorry but you'd have to be an idiot to run production web servers on a .Net whine installation.

lol, that's funny because we say the same thing in programming. The longest lasting code is usually the "temporary" code.
Cute but not supported by Microsoft.

You mean like Britain, which does the exact same thing to their own people?
War is Peace
Freedom is Slavery
Ignorance is Strength
(I tried to do all caps like in the book but /. wouldn't let me)
Really? Last I checked, they were in on this whole spying thing along with several other US allies.
I agree especially since we can defeat their war machines by just making them play tic-tac-toe and realizing their is no real winner.
