Oh, that's LAN - I thought you'd put ian and I was trying to get the joke. Stupid sans-serif fonts.

It's naïve to think that marketers have any interest in doing things ethically, unless there's a legal or business reason to do so.

That's where I'd heard of them, that channel is a goldmine.

Thank you and goodbye to lazy-static, I'll think of you every time I use a regex.

[Making cracks visible is] helpful, but what would be ideal is a way to not just find the cracks, but to fix them.

That's what the article says, they're hardly implying it's nonsense. Or are you saying that the self-healing is nonsense? There are examples of self-healing materials, like Roman concrete.

Good article, apart from talking so much about choosing a language for the user and ignoring the Accept-Language header, which exists solely for this reason.

Most websites seem to ignore this header and just show you whatever their geo-ip says.
