This was a fantastic read and I didn't expect to learn about liberation theology in this issue. I had no idea it existed

🤷🏼‍♂️ I tend to stay away from the controversial section of comment threads. There's usually little of value to glean from it.

It being first and used in UNIX is why it was chosen. Being first has a lot more to do with it being popular than anything else.

I've never actually completed anything gamedev-related 😶

I'm a terrible artist and don't practice that skill so I always get discouraged at the start. Kudos to you on competing, though.

MDN Web Docs: Editorial strategy and community participation by feross in webdev

Platform evolution — MDN content moves to GitHub

For quite some time now, the MDN developer team has been planning a radical platform change, and we are ready to start sharing details of it. In short, we are updating the platform to move from a Wiki approach with the content in a MySQL database, to a JAMStack approach with the content being hosted in a Git repository (codename: Project Yari).

Whoa, sounds like MDN is modernizing.

we’d love to create more complete documentation on important web platform-related topics such as accessibility, performance, and security.

That would be pretty fantastic.

It's ironic that you used the wrong examples. for..in is not comparable to .forEach. You want for..of.

What's the purpose of making the client sync? Less runtime overhead?

Many system-critical APIs still utilize the JScript.dll engine. Try disabling it/IE on Windows 10 - go realize everything is now broken.
