People prefer to mix with other people that behave in a way that they would like to emulate. Someone that cares about their own stuff, is confident etc, both provides an example to follow and implicitly projects a moral judgment that it's O

Yep, this annoys me mightily too but I've always thought of it as a web-design fail rather than a browser fail. I was about to ask how the new Firefox knows what constitutes a "fixed header" and what doesn't - like, what if the overlay only

Funny thing I've found myself doing recently, when I'm hooked in to one of these horrible, grindy, submarine IAP games which I should know better than to keep loading up but hey I'm only human. Since my iPad is jailbroken I just SSH in, fin

darkstalker's talking about stuff being /limited/, not stuff being simple to use and understand. They're related but not the same - that's where great design can come in. (At least, I still believe!) And I have certainly seen a 'typical' pe

Anyone trying to use this on a device with its own keyboard? eg. http://www.androidauthority.com/best-keyboard-qwerty-android... Be interested to hear how usable you can make it. Whether you can remap keys or buttons to all the major modi

I haven't tried it yet, but this "Emacs IPython Notebook" that was posted a few days ago looks similar, and their docs say that it's "like SLIME". http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4185960 http://tkf.github.com/emacs-ipython-notebook/

It's worth highlighting here how Tup differs fundamentally from Make in that you specify the DAG from the bottom-up, rather than the top-down as in Make. That is to say, with the top-down scheme used by Make you think about and write things

And also because browser-side JavaScript does not have standard modules, where one is able to 'import' another. So even in the development phase, pre-minification, one is discouraged from making new files because of the pain of adding corre

Don't forget this one: http://bundle-in-a-box.com/ Some highly rated adventure games there, though I haven't played them myself, yet...

You begin on topic by talking about the experience of a user: "avoid throwing a ton of settings to a user", then sidetrack into the experience of a developer: "the effort of understanding the code, making changes, testing, even the runtime

This is essentially what I do. A seperate target in my build script fetches external libraries with simple git clone/checkout commands just as if you were doing it from the shell. I normally have it check out a particular commit but if I wa

Having read a few more articles[1] I should correct myself and say that the majority of those which explain how Gatekeeper will be implemented in relation to the "File Quarantine" feature state that the signature check will only apply the /

Two concerns. Say you've made a bunch of apps and you are signing them and one day Apple judges that one of them is nefarious and revokes your developer key. Does that mean that /all/ of your apps will now fail to run in the "signed apps on

I was prepared for an un-circumventable blackout myself, and on reflection also think that the JS overlay is pretty smart. I'm certainly over-thinking this, but perhaps there's also a parallel between the way that many people will be findin

I have a game on my iPod Touch called "Scene It? Movies 2". If I start that up while having too many other apps 'open', it shows me a dialog box saying, "Low Memory Warning - The system memory is low. To improve performance, please quit the

A thing that nobody ever seems to mention which unsettles me far more than learning key commands or modal behaviour in my brief tryouts with Vim is how its cursor visually highlights a current character rather than a point between chara
