   WordPress recently added 'Tiled' galleries via their JetPack plugin. It seems like a similar approach. You can see an example gallery here: http://ma.tt/2013/07/jay-z-picasso/ Additional info: http

   It's not that much fun and, if you value your time, it's not cheaper. Factor in the time to buy the oil and the new filter. The time to clean up the funnel and pan. The time to properly dispose of the waste oil. Consider the buste

   I was on the board of a small non-profit. Volunteers with time, enthusiasm and smart ideas are great, but they come and they go. They get bored, they get jobs, they move on. The staff then gets stuck trying to support and maintain the speci

    Isn't the author looking at the data to find patterns to then measure it by. I'm no expert, but it seems like he is trying to find patterns to support a preconceived opinion (which I don't necessarily disagree with).

    The whole song and dance bugs me. It's not practical. What patient is really going to read a 3,000 page document? How long would that even take? How much would a typical patient even understand? Who benefits here? Lawyers? Insurance co

    True, but also keep in mind the site is still up with this spike in traffic. Must be Varnish, Nginx, CDN edge servers, sprites, gzip, pre-fetching and efficient CSS selectors.

    What's more, the site is holding up just fine under the _crush_ of HN visitors. Static HTML FTW. :)

    Using your example where a client is on retainer for two floating days per month, how do you avoid clients making urgent demands for that time? I fear having a number of clients pre-paying for time each month and then the last week of the m

    I think it's a shame that GeoCities is gone, and I totally respect this new effort, but isn't NeoCities one missed credit card payment away from the same fate? There's a lot of eggs in that basket.
