I did make a scrollbar that appeared to stick to the bottom of the table. I used a div with the same width as the table, used a scroll event listener to update the tables actual scroll position and only had it appear when the user was curre

I think this is the reason why the site is found so useful now. The meta board is a good read for anyone who wants to understand more or find out how to resolve their issues with the site.

You can work around this issue by creating a bit of separation between the height of your items and the heights used in CSS. At these heights the scroll thumb is already reduced to it's minimum height, so as long as you make sure that

I find it much quicker to write and neater to read than vanilla JS. I optimise afterwards and might consider swapping it out but it's usually low down the list of performance issues. Although it can be a bigger issue if you don't

In some countries there might also be a menu on the table for easier browsing. It does away with the frustrating parts of the experience like needing your orders ready at the exact time the waiter asks for it and having to wait for a bill a

It's the heavy unrealistic looking make-up which breaks the immersion for me. It looks like they could be having a night out in the city rather than adventuring. No realistic looking mud or sweat. I also think the clutter in the enviro

My local taxi companies will text you a link which allows you to pay online, so you can pay on the way to the destination. I usually just call and say "taxi from A to B please" before putting my shoes on, because in my experience

I lost my account from 2010 in the migration, because they require the transaction ID of the original purchase. The support person told me that the transaction ID was a key to the account.

I think normal people have just changed how they use it without much fanfare. If people want to quickly find a specific site they are looking for they know it's the place. But if they want to explore the world of cat memes they know it

For other things I make use of the "work offline" mode, to see what's loaded in and then leave. I'd like it if browser devs stopped pushing that future further away and maybe gave it a hotkey.

Isn't it an inevitable process considering how life works on this planet? I suppose you could say that life creates it, in the same way that you could say drivers create traffic patterns.

I tried them after reading here about how their support is excellent and had an interesting one-day experience. Not long after logging in for the first time their site started having some issues, such as the GUI being jumbled because the as

It's always worked fine for me when it comes to finding simple things with a search. I think it's deteriorated in some ways though. I don't find the advanced search operators reliable anymore (eg. give me all the news about

It might become an outlet for all the people who want to tell others whether they think a video is worth watching or not, making it harder to find comments with substance.

For me the benefit of using tabs over bookmarks is that from the order of the tabs you can figure out what you were doing at the time. With tabs it's also quicker to go back later and close what you no longer need.

If you're already subscribed to what you consider to be the best channels and they're feeding you more content than you have time to watch, then the recommendation section becomes almost useless. As long as you're using grid

I have several hundred friends added (think that's average) but I've never needed to do this because none of them seem to be interested in politics. Even the ones that have studied it at university only mention it occasionally and

I used to do this kind of work and found that the worst thing about it was actually having too much time. After a while I had read and understood all of the documentation and had a complete mental model, so tasks would take half the time. H

I don't think many non-developers use the dev tools for tasks, while people merely interested in technology (gamers and such) will get a gentle introduction to how cookies work from looking through the cookies in the normal interface.

It takes a bit of code but if you know the length of the response you're expecting then you can use XHR's "progress" event. Just be aware that the event will happen frequently and contain all the data so far, to avoid in

I'm new to NodeJS but it was my understanding that using await like that would help by not blocking the thread, leaving node free to process other requests.

I like to intentionally go after the small bugs which other people have put off because they seem to be relatively high-effort. I like the idea that I can focus on something that's bothering some people (occasionally and indefinitely)

I thought we were rare while reading through the comments on this article about ORMs, but then I realised that the SQL community is huge and anyone fine with SQL would more likely be posting over there. https://blog.logrocket.com

I think more people might part with their cash if they could fund the topics/proposals they were interested in. Something more like Gofundme and Twitch where people feel like they're directly paying for something to happen.

This lead me to believe that search must really hard to implement, but then a few days of getting into Sphinx convinced me otherwise. It's kind of like the big sites where you have to load the whole video before it'll start playin

As someone with an almost solely intuitive understanding of mathematics, I still find the "repeated addition" idea useful when it comes to fractions. If 4 * 4 is 4 repeated 4 times (4 + 4 + 4 + 4). Then 1/2 * 1/2 is a ha
