lol this is why so many game UIs are awful (how much they lack in terms of OS accessibility, keyboard controls/shortcuts, etc)

Tired of the annual "what do you want for Christmas?" group text chaos? We built WeDo to fix that. It's a multi-party gift registry where families and friend groups each get their own wish list, but can see and claim items fr

Really love the idea of this website. There hasn't been an update to the content here in a little over a year. The owners of the website accept contributions and I'm pretty sure most articles were voluntarily created and edited af

It seems that chrome doesn't work at all for me? Any ideas? Everything else seems to be working fine...but not chrome. The application just doesn't seem to register (the icon remains that of the last app recognized). No amount of

This is why "the fold" should never be a hard number. You can still design for a larger portion of the initial viewport with percentage based "folds" (along with content).

No problem, man. It's a shame that HN doesn't have two-way binding on these comment forms. I have a hard time visualizing what my comment will look like. Hope it looks good!

The usefulness of two-way binding is utterly boundless. Simply an amazing pattern that any and every one should implement at least once in their programming career.

Those companies are investing in that framework. It's currently in the form of a bunch of drafts on W3C. Web components and the shadow DOM are a few that embody what you're talking about.

I completely agree that with the right candidate this could be great -- however, that can be applied to almost any area of knowledge. I've been fed up lately with all the wrong people learning to program for the sake of learning to program.

I shed tears for the companies that hire the "graduates" of this "start to finish plan." I don't care how good of an instructor you are, you cannot make a programmer remotely efficient in HTML5 (primarily the countless APIs involved), CSS3,

What's the deal with these posts? First the one from Facebook and now this one? If it's too hard for you to differentiate between a scroll and a touch, there's about 210923423234 libraries out there that can make that differentiation for yo

Is it just me, or did a lot of this come off as "why can't everything be done for me?" The fact is, performance can never be ubiquitous, because there's always going to be many manufacturers with many different devices -- that while all imp

http://jsperf.com/tmandersondomtest The best possible way? Well, that's not true at all. In fact, that was even faster* than whatever method this article was talking about (genDom). Either way, my point wasn't to say 'just toss it all ove

This is, in my opinion, even worse than writing straight HTML in JavaScript. Before I get into anything, I just want to point out that with jQuery, you can do the same thing: $('<div id="foo"><span>bar</span></di

To be specific, jQuery is a utility library with a large set of DOM utilities. Sizzle is actually the DOM workhorse. As for the article: it's a valuable resource. Especially for those that believe jQuery is JavaScript. It's a goodie.

Any half decent programmer uses algorithms everyday without even knowing it. Algorithm is just another word that encompasses a massive subset of other words that in reality DO NOT matter. A word is of no use if you don't know the definition
