I envy you for never having issues with VS Code. I have to restart it far, far too often for it grinding to a halt. I'll lose my auto-complete menus completely. Forget auto-completing any paths (like for imports) when it gets to this s

You are to the point where you know what CSS can do, and can work your way through building out UIs. From here it's about adopting a system, and a system that will work well with your needs. Are you building in a react environment? Are

I'm over here confused about how so many people are using Whatsapp. Is this is the United States or other countries? No one I know uses Whatsapp over here. I did however do what others are suggesting. I installed Signal, and told my cl

This looks great, and could be a great tool to help some front-end developers. However, I must say, it's 2019, if you call yourself a front-end developer, and you do not know flexbox and grid - you are greatly missing out on an amazing

I map caplocks to control, I find the default control button in a weird spot to always be moving my pinky to (and I hardly have a use for caplocks, like yourself). However, after you said this, it reminded me of the comment I caught once wh

Whoa, whoa... explain your magic wizard. I've had caps lock mapped to control for years (i don't use the actual control keys for anything, don't like the weird pinky motion), but having a quick esc like that sounds great.

$1 per user, per month? Ouch. That's a lot to bite off honestly. We have 80+ people in our slack account, but i'd maybe wanna use this for ~20 of them. Doesn't seem to support that type of deal though.

It's lovely to assume this, but I see no mention of sourcemaps anywhere. This was my immediate gripe, debugging. Yea, the class name should point you to the file you want to look at, but that is still manual legwork. And the whole atom

I just want the comments in a fixed window that is draggable so i can put it where i want. I think that would make everyone happy...or at least be better. Great content tho, enjoying the read.

We have a few ppl in http://jam.now.im/c/bass Join up if you like bass music (dubstep, trap, future bass, glitch hop, chill bass, and the like) so we can test this with some dope tracks.

Looking pretty good for a first run, of course UI updates will have to happen, as it took a bit of clicking to figure out where i was at and what i was actually doing. Still confused as to what control/endless and just the normal room

"You mad bro?" comes to mind. Successful rants provide solutions at the end. Otherwise, its just that, a rant that has no real meaning at all other than allowing you to vent - like this post. Feel better (I do).

I am always uneasy when i see a site wanting any of my info to sign up and they don't have a privacy policy anywhere. I know you just built this thing, and wanted to share it - but you want my email address and a password, you need to

Well it looks pretty... But in terms of the web... if you can't create it with CSS3, its not worth it IMO. All those extra little shadows and light reflections... yeaaa. No thanks. More designers should learn CSS and build out little t

They are using jQuery. Their code is obfuscated, so hard to say exactly how they are doing it. But i know how I would do it. Nothing crazy going on there. You fetch your tweets from twitter, and build your html for them, position it out of

i had to refresh and all worked fine, but yes, this happened to me as well, the "cube" game play area never loaded first load. Chrome 25.0.1364.155 Either way, fun game. Great work.

While we are posting contrived examples. What was ever wrong with this? var Foo = function() {}; Foo.prototype.jump = function() { return "I jump." }; Foo.prototype.run = function() { return "I run."

I couldnt take it, had to look. Desktop: Chrome, FF, IE 9+, Opera, Safari Mobile: Android 3.0, FF Mobile 1.0, Opera Mobile, Safari Mobile 3.0.4+ Notable issues: No support for IE 7 or 8 (is there a polyfill?), No Android gingerbread support

Yea, browser support is a must have on articles like this. It was my first question upon opening the article. Some of us have rules to follow...

I'm with this guy. Basically the same setup. I still alias 'git' to 'g' also for all the other commands needed throughout the day. Not sure why yall would keep typing 'it'. I do enjoy the ascii car tho. Cheers to that. Probably will set thi

You sir, are spot on. You put it perfectly here: > Any tool that appropriately allows for all this complexity to be specified, has already become as complex as CSS itself, thus defeating the purpose. This was my immediate issue with CSS

by sic1 14y ago
I could not agree more with all your points. Source maps are the key, and i look forward to them very much. I am a coffeescripter, and i already have mixed emotions about the extra layer of complexity it puts on my code for others to get up

My thoughts exactly. Extend your main app var with Backbone.Events and u have a global event system. app.trigger 'boom'

by sic1 14y ago
I'm obviously opinionated on this point (backbone/underscore user), it just seems like it comes with so much i wont ever user - and could easily add via a mixin on a per project basis (in a nice functional manor). I also can't get over exte

I can't get past this (let alone the why of another MV*) - Why sugar.js? 6731 lines of bloat. This is going to turn off a great number of developers out the gates.

Nice, got me thinkin and tried this: _.throttle -> console.log("Foo") , 500 And it works!

I'd be very interested in ie7 support as well. As our contracts still all support ie7 (is there like an eta on ie7s death?). But hey, if you fork it, post the repo here! Ill help test it :)
