Pretty much what I would do. Netflix has such a large catalog, that I don't bother cancelling during periods when I'm not even using the service. If the content I'm interested in is spread through various services, I'll

I'm on the same boat, the only complaint being the lack of history search. And I like Discord so much that I switched our office from Hipchat to Discord, despite it being exclusively marketed towards gamers. We have been completely hap

I'm Brazilian, my phone got bombarded with "<user> just joined Telegram" notifications today.

This was incredibly educational for me. My only feedback/request would be to reinforce the difference between `align-content` and `align-items`. I still don't quite get when to use which.

I too struggled on the last level, which was certainly jarring because the ramp up until that point was quite gentle. That said, I did enjoy the last level as a challenge; it prompted me not only to review earlier levels, but also check doc

I might be the exception, but I find Github comments much easier to digest and manage as an archive than mailing lists. In all the years working in the industry, I could never get used to mail lists.

For me, depends on the level of experience I have with the language/platform/library, ranging from once a month to a dozen times in a day.

Has been like this for as long as I can remember (at least back to IE6).

Valid criticism, but Blogspot is to blame here.

To counterbalance, I think the Beats products look great and I've been tempted to buy them, but this very "image" around the brand sets me off greatly. That's the problem with endorsements, you end up wrangling your bran

I've been using this for a while, and it's wonderful to parse the output from API calls requested via curl, as well as quickly checking a specific package.json field from the npm output. The --json flag is handy for the latter.

You just need to get used to incorporating Dash into your workflow. If it helps convincing you, Dash also has tabs and uses the same shortcuts as Chrome.

Apple is a big, rich corporation. But in that campus there are still human developers. Radical hypothesis: what if this started as a pet project, got the attention of more employees, then management (with or without convincing from said dev

While Angular can certainly be used for simple progressive enhancement-kind interactions, its strength lies in single page/fat client apps, and in this case not having javascript and still getting basic functionality would mean duplica

My thoughts exactly. Also, I wonder what ever happened to Google Goggles, which as I recall was very similar technology.

That's pretty neat, but this demo uses some sort of scrolling emulation, so in the iPhone (tested in a 4s) this particular implementation breaks: Taping the status bar to scroll to the top, momentum scrolling, elastic bounce at both en

The bit about taking a picture of food you are about to consume and reading/logging nutritional data might be closer to viability once smartphones get Kinnect-like 3D sensors, making it possible to read volume data. Google's [Proj

Videos are not loading for me at all using Safari 7.0.3

That seems to be the "loading indicator". I was confused for a second, then it just faded away. I don't think there's a browser API to actually know wether the user has headphones plugged in or not.

The problem is that github itself agregates value. Issues, Gist, not to mention that various package management systems use github as the repository.

I haven't used npm tasks yet, so take this with a grain of salt. Grunt has two main advantages: a rich plugin ecosystem, with easy-to-configure/use tasks for pretty much anything I can think of (preprocessing, concatenating, minif

It's interesting to think of the benefits a modern constructed language and script could bring, but a way to foster adoption would be a very difficult task. Esperanto has a lot of speakers world wide, but hardly in significant proporti

If there ever will be one, someone needs to announce it first. And if the timing is commercially interesting for Amazon, that just reflect the fact that Amazon is a company with financial intereste, just like any other company.

I imagine that is mostly due to the lack of attention to the format. PDFs with vector graphics work very well both in my desktop computer and mobile phone. The iPhone can even preview Adobe Illustrator files very well. Granted, it could cac

One could argue that Autodesk's killer feature here is simulation; afaik, Fritzing doesn't have that feature.

I usually don't mind that much when the wrong terminology and naming is used, but this specific case was a disservice for me. I was very confused to see the syntaxe he used, yet calling it JavaScript; I thought they used a modified JS

We did these too! But our little group of kids used two variants: the first was meant to be played by tracing your path with a pencil (so we could erase and reuse the map) through really narrow passages. The second was more interpretative;

To some this might come off as simple bragging, but I can relate to the sense of accomplishment (and appreciate the little insight into the tech stack).
