Misread as "Legacy Mitigation Strategies" - that would have been a good read as well.

This plus moxie's comment (currently top) really sum it up nicely. Unless I get on the order of $500 or more for it a month, I won't stop seeing something as a side project or hobby. I certainly don't want the support responsibilities that

I've been trying to think what is the root cause of this sad state of affairs on Windows. Attacking the scammers is not going to work since obviously their scams are profitable (and legal enough to get away with...) Is it (the lack of) educ

A big thing for me are the Macbook trackpads (and the standalone magic trackpads). They're just so awesome to use and no other manufacturer's comes close to Apple's.

The problem this is trying to solve is an annoying one - so much so that I just wrote something similar a couple of weeks ago: https://github.com/suan/quick-debug Letters seems like a better way to do it though.

One reason is that many distros are very slow to update the versions of these packages. It's much easier to get up-to-date packages from language-specific package managers.

Plugin author here. There seems to be many solutions out there which let a developer specify keyboard shortcuts code-side, but nothing which lets their users easily enter/change keyboard shortcuts in a text box, with good usability. Here's

On my Android 2.3 phone with stock browser, when I tap an image, the image _below_ it gets highlighted, even though the correct image is opened - horribly confusing. Also when an image is being viewed, you can't swipe to go to the previous/

At first I thought the cube-like stairs were the part which dropped down into the floor when the knob is turned, like something out of a futuristic movie. Was just a little disappointed when I saw that that wasn't the case :)

I personally can't stand names that end with "ly" for no good reason (assistly, embedly, ugh. If its an actual word, like "carefully", then fine) So that leaves Flekko, which is neither good nor bad IMO.
