Now we have open-world set of user-defined elements

Maybe this is true at Google, but I just don't see much demand for s/Web Components/Custom Elements.

I'm still stuck on this point. Would you expect a kind response, even in public, if someone overheard you talking to friends and just said "Language."? Now take that and move it to social media which is hardly a public space where manners are the norm.

He made an error here and clearly he feels guilty about the way he addressed it.

For you this is true since you're fully aware of the context, but if you're being flooded with thousands of notifications and someone just inserts themselves with a single word "Language" I would imagine many people would react in a similar manner.

If he had said, "I work with NASA and your language here is inappropriate" then we wouldn't have heard anything about the incident. He approached this poorly.

I'm having trouble following my own thoughts on this one.

- Posts about an exciting thing to online friends with the word Fuck - This is ok.

- Random person inserts themselves into the conversation trying to be a moral compass - Good intentions, but not ok.

- tells person to suck dick and balls - Not ok.

So, while the offer was rescinded due to the mob mentality of Twitter following up on this exchange, I would definitely have second thoughts on hiring someone if that's their go-to attitude.

In the end, I'm glad one stupid tweet didn't ruin this person's life, but I hope it's a wake up call that there is no wall between online and offline.

Amazon has almost all of them, all the way back to the first episode. We subscribe to PBS kids (through Amazon) for our daughter, but I'm not sure if that's required for the Mr. Rogers series.

Really nice work making this concept into a usable library. I look forward to hearing more at the next SeattleJS meetup.

The thing that's stopped me from exploring this concept is how much extra code must end up on the page with inline styles.

With css I can reuse the same styles over and over with only the class name as the repeating element. With inline styles you could have many rules repeating (say a long list or table).

Have you found this to be a problem for performance?
