You can’t thickness plane plywood reliably. The laminations are often too thin and will tear apart in low spots, or uneven glueing on the laminations will cause it to delaminate. It’s likely to make more of a mess than a usable product. The

That’s some good feedback! We’ll look into adding screenshots. As most of the components have no CSS (the ones that do are mostly layout, no theming) - they don’t look great, they are mostly useful for their behaviours.

We use Catalyst for internal components on GitHub.com, but we actually convert them to plain Web Components when we open source them, so that many projects (even those without catalyst) can benefit.

Brotli has a static dictionary (contents of which can be seen here[1]) which was created from a web corpus. It’s part of the spec[2]. A derivative implementation of zstd could make use of this as a static dictionary. [1] https://

Wrapping them in methods is an easy way to fix that... but not sure if it is any cleaner. render() { return <If cond={ this.state.loggedIn } then={() => `Hello ${ this.state.userName }`} else={() =&

I agree, the site wasn't so clear. My understanding is that it seems `align-items` is to do with the children of the element, while `align-content` is to do with the spacing with regards to the parent container. In some ways, `align-co

As someone who isn't hearing impaired, having subtitles for speech & sounds in real life sounds awesome. Especially if I'm using my ears for other things, like listening to music.

Given your scenario of serving the right video to browsers, you shouldn't need to do UA sniffing because the browser should have the right accept headers so you can do proper content negotiation. UAs these days should only be good for

I'm afraid you're mistaken, I dutifully upvoted you right after I commented. I've changed the wording to be slightly less ambiguous. Thanks again :)

That's splitting hairs - UTF-8 allows for over a million code points, enough to cover pretty much every written language, and then some (including swathes of emoji characters). ISO-8859-1 has 256 code points, barely enough to cover Eur

Thanks for the clarification about the request line, I'll edit the article to point that out! I mostly referred to it as a "crappy Windows character set" because A) it has a limited set of characters, mostly Western European,

It's quite common. I've worked at several companies, including BSkyB where the developer team is supported by a devops team - the devops write Vagrant scripts which bootstrap a VM that closely mimics the production environment and

Part of DOM Level 3 is a new set of keyboard event attributes[1], including a string value[2] which can make this whole keyboard mess much simpler. Unfortunately none of the browser vendors have implemented this - which I find irritating co

/.+@.+\..+/ would be a bit too ambitious as the dot is not necessarily part of a valid email - an MX record can appear on a TLDs DNS records[1]. Considering ICANNs new licensing of hundreds of TLDs this could be a very real concern soon. 1:

This is very common practice in large business, where the payment terms to suppliers are sometimes much longer periods than the time to purchase. Amazon, for example, have the same strategy, where they can sell the majority of their stock b

I find it interesting that Apple/RIM/Microsoft are backing a company like Rockstar. They couldn't buy the patents themselves because they'd be less valuable, as using them exposes the company to counter-action, so instead they all set up a
