I'm not disagreeing with you, however free trade is most certainly not a default as far as the law is concerned. As such, intellectual property is for all practical purposes being treated entirely inconsistent with real property in this man

Rather than an off shoring tax, I think we need to look at the flow of assets covered under intellectual property across borders. I'm just putting this idea out there; I'm not sure how I feel about it personally. But businesses want to trea

When I was in school here in Canada, we were told the story of the Therac-25 ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therac-25 ). Sadly, we're still dealing with some of the problems that plagued the Therac-25 (e.g., poor error messages, arithmetic

Please don't. Scrolling is an inherently spatial behaviour, and changing state while doing so will confuse a lot of users. It feels like chasing the carrot.

It does. I swallowed my pride and extended an olive branch before this issue began as I sensed something was wrong. She said everything was okay. Then the next week she phoned me at work, after I'd invited her out to a movie, and she unload

I have a tendency to dwell on a negative situation, which I've learned, quite painfully, is possibly the worst thing to do. So whenever something comes along that wipes me off my feet, I decide to pickup a new skill/hobby and focus on that

I think the deflationary pressures from the economic collapse are largely offsetting inflationary pressures. I'm not an American, but that's why I'm not too concerned about the fiscal stimulus your country has enacted. I suspect we'll see a

My ideal weight is 170 lbs but I'm training to get to 181 by end of summer (buddy and I are using similar charts:-) ). I'm at 195 lbs now, so still stocky. My 1 rep max wasn't 135 at first, but it was the max weight I could do 10 reps of. A

Journalists still pursue stories aggressively. The difference is that in the 1960s and 1970s, the stories they pursued in politics surrounded things that mattered like wars and Watergate. Today, the only stories that journalists will pursue

In shape is a term you'll have to define for yourself. When I was younger, the definition seemed to revolve around appearance and weight. Nowadays, I also throw in exercise metrics. For example, this time 6 months ago I was 10 lbs lighter t

We both went to religious schools. Unlike public schools, teachers could and would comment on things that probably were none of their business. They'd also encourage and discourage certain types of behaviour outside of the academic domain.

Embarrassingly enough, I didn't know that IE supported downloadable fonts. Thanks for the clarification.

by 9oliYQjP 17y ago
But it's not about refusing to support them completely. Also, the difference between trying this strategy today and even 2 years ago is that CSS now has features that would be compelling to end users rather than just developers. Users cou

I recently prototyped a site using CSS that only Safari 3+ and FireFox 3+ could understand. I never loaded IE up once while doing it. Boy was it a pleasure being able to have a CSS stylesheet declare rounded borders with one declaration. Th

Yup, and eating right. What kept tripping me up in my 20s as I tried to get back into shape time and time again was learning that I couldn't eat like a teenager any more. I have to be really careful what I eat. I eat nutritious food now whe

I'm in a verbose state of mind right now so bear with me. You're right in some twisted way, I owe these people for making me who I am. But let me explain. I've looked at pictures of me when I was a toddler and while I wasn't a scrawny kid,

I was a fat geek when I started high school. It was an all male school at that. I wouldn't say I was terribly pushed around, but at the start, I was easy prey for bullying. Towards the end of grade 10, I'd had enough. I used some of my savi

The differences in screen quality between the 13" and 15" MacBook Pro are not because of 6-bit vs 8-bit panels. All MacBook Pros ever made have only used 6-bit panels. The 15" just uses a higher quality 6-bit panel.

Might sound like a smart ass remark but if he can't tell by looking at the displays in person whether they're 8-bit or 6-bit, then I can see why 99% of laptops on the market use 6-bit panels. I fully understand that when you compare them si

by 9oliYQjP 17y ago
Exactly. I've heard many "graphics professionals" who buy a new MacBook Pro to replace an old one and blame the 6-bit panel for poor colour reproduction. It's not the fact that the panel is 6-bit. They came from a 6-bit panel, although most

I'm not a morning person, but my experience is similar to yours. What I settled on when circumstances allow for it is to wake up early in the morning to get non-creative stuff done. Then, I have a nap for maybe 2 hours. Following this nap,

What is your current cash flow? That is all that matters. At a minimum your cash flow needs to be enough to service your debt and living expenses. Then, you can all work for equity and make a go of this. Figure out what this number is, and

I'm fairly familiar with NSNotificationCenter, but I haven't been keeping up-to-date with newer alternatives in the Cocoa framework. At least, it's my understanding that Apple is also pushing key-value observing. Do you know if NSNotificati

If I don't want to use a framework like blueprint, and I actually prefer (in this context) the CSS syntax (e.g., braces et al) as opposed to HAML, then is compass still useful to me? That's what is (now) confusing to me given your replies t

I do know about compass, but I have a feeling compass will be to less what Prototype is to jQuery, at least for me. When I first learned Prototype I thought it was awesome, but jQuery just ended up making a whole lot more sense to me. Diffe

by 9oliYQjP 17y ago
I think you made the right call. CSS isn't complex enough to need a framework. In a lot of cases, CSS frameworks abuse the primary motivating factor for trying to separate style and content in the first place. If I have to use particular HT
