You just have to keep submitting. Of all the things I've submitted I'd say <10% have hit the front page, but those that have, got a lot of comments and interest. I like to think that even if only one person saw what I posted, t

This is why I gave up photography as a hobby. I don't 'the eye' for it. All my photos come out bland and badly composed. These days my DSLRs and all their lenses just sit in a draw gathering dust.

One of the performance checks they use is how quickly the body text renders into a readable format as a page loads. If your site has slow loading web fonts, AND you haven't specified a fall-back font (i.e. serif, or sans-serif etc.), G

I'm the opposite. I hate being able to click anywhere on a trackpad for left-click. It results in SO many false clicks, that I revert to using a small travel mouse. I much prefer old trackpads where you had clearly defined 'button

How I've tackled this problem in the past: 1. Create a 404.php (or whatever your preferred back-end is) 2. mod_rewrite real 404s to serve that script. 3. In that script have a lookup table/db/file that lists all the r

Google treats 302s and 301s differently when it crawls. A 302 is effectively ignored and the search index isn't updated - the original URL that threw the 302, is left in. Whereas 301s result in the new redirect target URL replacing th
