UPDATE: It turns out the slowdown at 40,000 was due to the Web Inspector being open (I have no idea why!) It's actually still pretty damn smooth at a MILLION particles! Crazy!

It's actually 30,000 particles, not 80,000. See the source: "numLines = 30000". If you set a breakpoint at that line (28), then you can edit the variable in the console to whatever you want. You can make it smaller without setting the break

I don't even know why I chose India as my comparison. It was indeed prejudice and I'm sorry for any offence caused.

As somebody who's lived in the UK all their life, I can honestly say I'm flabbergasted every time I read something about the US healthcare system. It's like how Japanese cities don't have street names ( http://sivers.org/jadr ), that comple

How hard is Xen to configure and maintain? I like VPSs because they're mostly hassle free, and all my projects are separate and isolated. It seems like running all my projects on one box would be a massive headache!

A click of an ad. Their ideal user is be somebody who regularly uses the service through the website, rather than mail clients, doesn't use an ad-blocker, and clicks the ads.

Their VPS service looks fantastic also: http://www.hetzner.de/en/hosting/produktmatrix_vserver/vserv... Their 2GB plan is 3x cheaper than Linode…and you get over 4x the data transfer! Does anyone know how the performance compares?

You can go too far with A/B tests, and maybe the Google execs realised that. You just end up with a fragment of your user base who like everything and convert well, and likely a majority who don't (to varying degrees, of course.) To mak

Oh, wow! I'd been working on what appears to be a Meteor-like framework with the very premise of "All the same APIs are available on the client and the server — including database APIs!" for the past few days. It came from my frustration of

Exactly. The problem with this and MacRuby is you're only really using the Ruby syntax. The idioms are still mostly the same, which IMO is what makes Ruby shine, not necessarily just the syntax.

We've just got to hope there aren't any major catastrophes involving life early on. Personal space travel could easily go the way of Concorde and commercial supersonic travel if companies like SpaceX and Virgin Galactic don't get it spot on

Wow, nice to see a Bootstrap site which doesn't look like every single other Bootstrap site! Good work! Though, what's the difference between this and rubygems.org? Is it just like a private version, so you can create proprietary gems and b

The worrying thing about Apple's Gatekeeper feature isn't that they may impose their moral opinions on apps, but that governments and corporate entities will have the ability to pressure Apple into disabling apps which aren't actually mal

So they'll pay you $200,000 for a theatrical release (but regardless of if your movie is chosen, you can't sell your work anywhere else for 18 months because they've got exclusive rights to buy it… all without giving you a penny ), and you

In the UK the Sales of Goods Act just states the goods must work for a 'reasonable' amount of time, no exact time frames are given. And with a £1000+ computer, a reasonable amount of time in my opinion as a consumer would be at least 3 year

After playing with TM2 for half an hour or so, I don't think I'll be switching back from Vim. I was hoping for some split-screen action and maybe some advanced autocomplete intergration, but it doesn't seem to have either. It's looking to b
