>>People need one little thing, like an accordion, but all they find are plugins for JQuery, so instead of 10 lines of JS, they have 84 KB of JQuery and seven lines of Javascript.
Couldn't have said it better.

JQuery has been the golden standard for more than 10 years and even though there are still valid use cases it is mostly used by lazy developers.

The problem is that 99% of all javascript related Google queries will give you a SERP full of JQuery solutions so it's really hard to move on.

Google PageSpeed Insights might be the needed accelerator to speed up the transition to Vanilla JS because downloading and parsing a big library like JQuery will screw up your PageSpeed score.

Apparently you need gloves to take it out of the box. How do you wear it

Sounds like GDPR to me

> I realize that just because the overnight rate from a central bank goes negative, that doesn't mean that your mortgage goes negative, but that is the end point of that logic. And that's where it seems so squirrelly.

That is the reality in Denmark. We can get a 10 year mortage with negative interest but then you have to pay fees.

Fun fact. In 1917 USA bought the US Virgin Islands from Denmark for 25 million Dollars.

Stumbled over this: https://www.ax-semantics.com/

I haven't tried it but it looks cool sites with lots of product data.

This is good news.

Of course it would help if people stopped throwing plastic in rivers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PavA4rUypE

The world has all the plastic we will ever need. We just have to recycle it.

Earlier this year scientists announced that they have improved a naturally occurring enzyme, which will reduce plastic to its natural building blocks. There are many types of plastic and each type probably needs a different enzyme and needs to work on a large production scale. There is hope.

Haven't you heard about the super rich Nigerian that died a couple of months ago. The local police found a billion in cash in his house. Apparently he had tried to give it all away but nobody would answer his emails.

GM is planning to put autonomous steering wheel-free cars on the road in 2019: https://techcrunch.com/2018/01/11/gm-and-cruise-reveal-their-fourth-generation-steering-wheel-free-cruise-av/
   
We all know that autonomous steering wheel-free cars is the future, but 2019? Wow!

It seems to me that Tesla is turning in to a spearhead tech company, which is showing the way for the rest of the industry but fail to keep up when the technology becomes mainstream.

Tesla is still the leader in electric cars but that too is changing. All major carmakers have plans for electric cars within the next five years. If the industry manages to lower the production cost gab between an electric car and a regular car the competition will be completely reset and Tesla will experience a Nokia/Iphone moment.

We have a lot of Tesla's in Denmark and Norway has the highest Tesla market penetration in the world. In both countries Tesla owners are complaining about many weeks of waiting time on service and repairs because Tesla has supply chain and service issues. The simply don't have the muscle and experience that the traditional carmakers have.

So now they are planning to make a fancy semi-truck and they have already sold 1000. Congratulations. I still don't see Tesla as anything but a spearhead tech company.
