React.js can help with some of that layout thrashing. The jsx syntax makes it easy for designers and front end engineers to work together effectively as well.

Re: Still a bit confused

Yep, it's being moved, and that's still a very good thing.

1. Power plants are more efficient that car engines, the pollutey far less per unit.

2. Every time a petrol car goes on the road, it's stuck polluting. When an electric car is delivered, it's possible to change it's ultimate power source. Commission a new Nuke / windfarm / solar / hamster wheel - all the electric cars get cleaner. The petrol ones do not.

Have Brits fallen for Netflix, or do they still LoveFilm?

Dakuan

The thing that grinds my gears about Love Film its the websites ghastly UI. It's better than it used to be when every episode of a series got displayed individually and you had to scroll through pages of doctor who episodes to find anything. But it ought not to be beyond them to display a TV Show as one item, rather than each season.
