Octopress is a great framework, although the default theme has one major issue: the default fonts. It uses both PT Sans and PT Serif, which comprise 6 .woff files that amount to 300kb and take almost 3 seconds to load. One of the main purpo

I'm sorry it wasn't clear. I actually added that sentence at the end without going further into that thought. What a feedback button actually tells the user is: "We're not sure about our design, we haven't thought it through, so please help

The navigation menu is technically really clean and easy to move through. Problem is: click on a link and it's gone. This nav/subnav system suggests hierarchy, like it's a snapshot of the sitemap. But what it actually is, is a portal. A sim

Problem is: a lot of apps require a recent version of iOS. A likely solution would be to stick with old versions of your apps running on an old iOS version, but: * you don't get the feature updates * you don't get the bugfixes * some old ve

You're right. I implicitly meant 'for desktop users'. Ideally, a slider on mobile should be usable through swiping. It's not hard to setup either.

I guess years of flash animated banner ads have made users blind to any animated content on a web page. On a side note, if you intend to implement a navigation for your slider (like dots or page numbers), I'd highly recommend triggering i

First of all, good luck on your new life. I quit my job last year to do music (sounds crazy, and it actually is a bit) so I know your feeling. Here's some advice though. Asking to wish you luck sounds like you're not entirely confident abou

I'm actually glad they did. HTML is already very verbose. Although 'header' and 'footer' appear (supposedly) once per page, styling inline elements requires to use 'strong' or the generic 'span' tag. And it's one situation when the tag is n

Nowadays, I tend to avoid gradients because it's so easy to mess it up. It's not only about choosing 2 colors, it's about eveything that happens in between. Putting some text on top of it requires to be readable on both colors, and everythi

Can you tell me how you made it work? Adding a keyword for that field uses the following URL: https://github.com/search?q=&type=Everything&repo=&#... which ends up as a regular search. So typing "g @mojombo" doesn't bring me to hi

I've successfully used this CSS Sprite Generator quite a few times: http://spritegen.website-performance.org/ For example, I had to generate a 100+ icons sprite (24x24px, 48x48px and 96x96px). All I had to do was: 1. Zip these icons 2. Up

I have a question about the way keyboard shortcuts are implemented: are the keys mostly chosen for their value or their position? For example (and please correct me if I'm mistaken), "Copy" is "C" because it's the first letter, and "X" is "

They posted several icon drafts on Dribbble to gather feedback from the users, but it doesn't seem like they listened to the suggestions (or maybe they didn't have time to submit a new icon?). http://dribbble.com/shots/442430-Sparrow-iPhon

I'm no developer, so I never have to use the terminal. But now that you mention how you use it, I'll probably give it a try.

I started writing CSS just like that. It makes reading properties easy but takes a lot of vertical space (and unlike you, I hate to scroll). So I write properties on one line, which makes reading selectors easy (example: http://jgthms.

I always write margin:0; instead of margin: 0; Here's why. The first reason I do is because you don't need to write that space. It doesn't seem like much but it makes a difference when you're writing up to more than 1000 lin

Mainly Win 7. Otherwise Mac OS X. Sometimes Win XP, and very rarely Ubuntu. But I almost never have a terminal open (and don't have a shortcut for that either) whereas Firefox almost always is. So I'm just 1 click away rather than 4 chara

Exactly what I needed. For the last few weeks, I've been trying to increase my productivity by getting rid of time tracking. So I decided to hide my computer's clock. Sometimes, like when I have an appointment, I still need to check what ti

I think what the title meant is not "Your hard drive is too big. Period." but rather "Your hard drive is too big, you won't need so much space, so why don't you go for less space but much more speed, for the same price?".

You're not that isolated. My brother was born in Ede and I still have family there. Here in France, the web is highly concentrated in Paris (I'd say 80% of all the activity), so it's not uncommon to have geographical disparities.

It may have an impact on drums but not on guitars. Playing guitar on Rock Band and playing guitar in real are totally different things. But playing drums on Rock Band gets you to learn how to associate a body part to a seperate rhythm. I kn
