I read the blog entry and watched the video. I'm not sure that you did because the main message I saw was Ms. Danilec encouraging women to enter the field. That line you quoted was about about attitude, not making the technology more accessible. It's the Barbie doll "math is hard" thing. The message is to encourage women to take it on and not worry that it is too hard. She gave personal experience stories to show that technology is already accessible to women.

Nowhere did she suggest you should make the command reference accessible to women. It's a message of encouragement. Why would you be opposed to encouraging women to become developers?

This:

  const difference = +new Date("2020-01-01") - +new Date()

will only work they way you expect it to if you are in the UTC timezone.

Which is basically what I said. Your boss is paying you to use angular.

It's more likely that your boss pays you to use Angular.

That does not explain the anxiety displayed in the comments.

There are also explicit laws about jaywalking, but I don't go around trying to enforce them.

Those of us who are fluent in English enjoy extraordinary privilege online. It seems that some are worried about any reduction in that privilege, no matter how small.

Why all the defensiveness? I can't read this either, but I'm not feeling the need to down vote it.

I am sure there are many people who can read it. Why would I make it more difficult for them by helping to hide the article?

The only authoritative statement on spelling in that paragraph is the spelling of ECMAScript.
