That doesn't matter, though. Let's take the example above and say there's 5000 .widget items on the page. There's two properties that need to be set. Assuming jQuery works as you expect, in the first case we iterate over 5000 elements setti

I prefer Blessings[1] for terminal colors/positioning/etc (except it's limited to platforms that support curses): from blessings import Terminal t = Terminal() print t.bold, 'Hi there!', t.normal print t.bold_red_on_bright

I've been trying to "get used to" Twitter over the past year or so ever since I started working somewhere where a lot of my coworkers use Twitter a lot. It's interesting, and I've gotten into a few amusing discussions, but in the end I stil

I'm confused about the JSON > HTML part of your comment. Independent of which one is better overall, wouldn't HTML be more meaningful than JSON because it has semantics attached to tags?

Probably a personal thing. I say the word aloud as if it were a contraction, and having never bothered to actually learn proper grammar, I figured it was fine since it sounded correct in my head. In a similar vein, I get lazy with the word

The fear is that posting a bug like this on a social network will result in a bunch of people commenting on the bug about how this needs to be our new #1 priority or how we're just too slow. While both are perfectly valid criticism, bugs ju

Please make this obvious from the page itself. Don't call it an app if it's a concept, maybe use "could" instead of "can", etc. I get that you may not have anticipated the amount of interest when making this, of course. It looks really cool

FYI: In Firefox 17 on Snow Leopard there's a "skip to navigation" link way to the right (like 10000px or so) that I can scroll sideways to on your homepage. I only noticed because I'm using a trackpad. :D

Developer Tools would've scared the crap out've me when I was 11 years old trying to figure out how web pages worked. The classic view source showing just text is a very powerful message: websites are just text[1]. As a young wannabe, it wa

That uses the OS file dialog, which is far too slow for my taste, although I've never actually checked to see what kind've shortcuts there are for it.

Cmd-P is useful for opening existing files, but what's the preferred way for creating them? I eventually had to get an extension and modify it to replicate emacs' c-x c-f to create files.

It may be an issue of having multiple channels of communication, and the bug tracker is only one of them. For example, though I work for Mozilla, I'm not terribly good at keeping up with the mailing lists, so every so often something pops u

I disagree. The graphics in Minecraft match very well with the gameplay mechanic of working with a small, simple set of building blocks. It's a not-so-subtle signal to the player that the entire world is constructed with these blocks, and i

At Mozilla, we use a homegrown template called Playdoh[1][2] that includes split settings file, some sample deployment scripts, and lots of useful libraries that handle stuff like secure cookies, localization, strong password hashing, etc.
