If you're talking about variables in closures, a coworker of mine has a pretty clever way to do it: "var _this = this". It's just a generally useful part of javascript.

This vaguely reminds me of record labels' arguments against filesharing. The answer to impacted profits isn't to fight trends in technology (easy music copying, easy ad blocking); the answer is to find another way to monetize. People will p

Absolutely, I thought the variable logos were a really awesome idea and would be very engaging for users to look at it. Even if they don't understand it at first, think of it as a well-liked art piece or a clever idiom that requires your fr

I disagree. If anyone learns there's a high chance their identity or credit cards will be stolen they would be thoroughly concerned; simply offering people extra PSN time strikes me as immature and even a little silly.

I checked out http://gs.statcounter.com/ . Select Browser Version, maybe view as bar graph. Africa and Asia lead in IE6 by almost 25%. I was surprised, but it does make sense -- pirated XP comes with IE6, people can't use Windows Update,
