I'll share an even better approach that works across all devices, allows better todo management and allows you to preserve the original email context. The first thing you need to know is that an email sent to username+anything@gmail.co

As Ken himself notes in the article, it worked for "retail boxes" but that model is now obsolete. Upgrade pricing will almost always lead to an abusive relationship where the consumer is on the receiving end. Rate-limiting feature

This is a wonderful library but it falls short on one major aspect which limits its design capabilities. Currently a block spanning N columns on a desktop must span N columns or 1 column on a mobile device. This means you can't have a

If you are writing a web application of sorts that needs to have a basic theme (buttons, forms, menus, etc) then Bootstrap serves a good purpose and gives you a responsive layout along with it. It also brings some sense of uniformity across

Not directly related but I have one major gripe with ELB--am hopeful you have some inside knowledge and a possible workaround. I use CloudFlare for DDoS protection which Amazon doesn't offer. For apex domains, ELB requires route53 excl

That would certainly be very interesting, especially as PHP is being nudged into that area (Twig also now offers a c-module). I really hope the author picks up on this and compares it. It could provide some tremendous insights into pushing

I'm curious to know - did you consider Varnish? It's much faster as a rev proxy caching server.

Awesome UX. I believe this implementation is called a v-buffer, though I can't find any references right now but I am fairly certain I read about it a decade back. Apple used this technique for their menus early on while Microsoft took the

That should have read "forced to deal with mobile platforms". I currently have scenarios where I want the same version on the desktop and mobile. That's trivial because I simply don't include the responsive CSS file. In 3.0 the media querie

I am not sure what "mobile first" means, could you please explain what that means for the end-developers? The only thing to that effect I see right now is that responsive less files will no longer be separate from the core. That will probab

The "edit styles" bookmarklet is a huge time saver. It's a live CSS editor. I usually tweak the styles in there then move them over to the CSS file when done.

As a developer, I would love to see what the API looks like and some sample scripting: humans = init({ count:100, gender:male }); task_navigate = task({ type:navigate, uri:{latitude:123, longitude:456} }); task_photograph = task(
