Non-schizophrenic people have been responsible for more killings than schizophrenic people. Please be respectful and avoid stigmatising.

How do you manage the bus factor? You die tomorrow and what happens to management of the domain and therefore access to their emails?

You can look through my history how many times I’ve brought this up to people and they just don’t seem to care. A defence is that they’ll buy the domain for a century and not care once they’re dead which is fair but the situation in this article is a valid one. I will always stick with Big Email for accounts.

Please read TFA

> for most web apps, you’re much better off with good old DOM elements. Take the humble element, for example. With it, you get crispy rendering at any resolution, support for tab, focus, selection, mouse interactions and arrow key navigation, internationalization for right-to-left text and Asian compound characters, accessibility for screen readers…

They update the docs every year. The videos are for people who want a demonstration instead of reading docs and trying things manually to see the result.

Because the native request prompt contains a very short string. You may use a permission for a number of things and need more description length to explain it. See the Apple HIG for an example:
