I will never understand why novice developers include jQuery at the cost of 100 KB and an http request. All in order to write $("#some-id") rather than the more easily understood document.getElementById('some-id')

It was supposed to be a polyfill to support all older browsers, but 99% of browsers now support things like setAnimationFrame, XMLHttpRequest, etc.
A lot of designers argue that the browser caches jQuery anyways, but modern websites are concatenating all js files into one single file, so that 100 KB has to be redownloaded for everyone. Maybe I am too old, but I see beauty in saving bytes. To me, there is a big difference between if a website loads in 100 ms or 500 ms.

Both forms are incredibly gay. The only proper way is to write it into machine specific code. None of that pussy assembly either, that's cheating. Break out a hex editor.
