8 hours of work already mean about 10 hours dedicated to work, including commute and preparation. It’s 18 hours if you include sleeping and you only have 6 hours left for “recreation,” which must also include personal errands, cooking and c

Not everyone can be a professional. Companies like Amazon, Walmart and Monsanto squeeze out “mom and pop stores” so they can no longer compete and end up working for the man.

Service itself is pretty good compared to the EU. Consumer protection for goods however isn’t. Most products in the EU must come with a 2-year consumer warranty for example.

Doesn’t that already happen? Chrome currently survives thanks to advertising either way. Splitting Google would just make it a little more indirect.

Users of CSS frameworks do it to cut corners and follow whatever the framework suggests. “The small breakpoint is 768px wide? I guess below it it’s a phone, I hope you like burgers”

On iOS it just changes the UA. This means that regular CSS-only responsive sites don’t change at all, unlike what the other 2 comments are suggesting. Maybe on Android it’s different.

The author is actually complaining about narrow viewports and not about portrait orientations, without even realizing it.

It’s not that hard to display a few paragraphs. It’s hard to display complex pieces of information while also making them look good to the client (which, we should remember, pays our bills)

Agreed completely. One mistake that designers/developers do though is to completely give up under 1000px so we get this swaths of whitespace and a hamburger. That’s a waste of estate and a waste of my time.

There’s a good reason why there are no real DPI media queries: You should not decide how big things appear on the screen, that’s up to the user. The user has the ability to change resolution or to change the website’s zoom level, you shoul

People downvoted you but there’s some truth here. There’s only one thing that comes to mind: > First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. > Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I

This applies to everything in the browser honestly. Why can’t I bind a variable to the DOM natively? I want the variable X to match the value of <input> and vice versa without having to set up a bunch of listeners and hope they don’t

What a joke. You’re willing to go broke so they lose 2% of their capital? Good job.

What you’re feeling is called Schadenfreude. I wonder how long before enough people realize they made a mistake to trigger another referendum.

This is super interesting, I didn’t know that Shortcuts could track apps opening and closing.

They’re ok but they should be more precise: 1. Require websites to be concise and offer a yes/no ONLY. 2. Reverse-lobby browser vendors to turn this into an API. 3. Require everyone to use the API. Now users can block or accept all r

Don’t read this because you can’t unsee. I prefer to be ignorant of what it could have been because I don’t want to groan about it for the rest of my days.

The blog you mentioned has interesting articles. Do you have by chance also something similar but for the person on the other side of the desk? I’d like to sharpen my skills to be interviewed. I’m the developer who never has questions at th

I’m the kinda of guy who has a strict linter and will force you to rewrite every PR you submit, but the result is that most of the time better style means you see the problems better and very often the diff (or additional code) is halved. I

Nobody would like to be locked at home. No restaurants and no travel… for what? 2 weeks aren't enough to slow down the warming.

This would make sense if Rolling Stones wants to be a sort of Medium: You pay us to host your content. However to make sense they’d also have to share the profits from the ads on the page.

Because the iPhone is a pretty expensive mass-produced camera with millions of dollars in development costs that a webcam would never have. Even a highly-optimized “let’s steal a smartphone camera” webcam would never cost under $100, so it

There are no advantages. It’s heavy, limited, not very readable. It just looks beautiful and demoes OpenType’s features and the author’s capabilities. Maybe someone will find it useful, but we’re talking about 10 people on earth. Even if yo

Parcel doesn’t come for free. It does help, but it brings its own problems. If you stick an await in the code it breaks it because it transpiles it to a missing library. You have to disable Babel or import a regenerator/polyfill or wha
