The continued struggle of third parties traces to our use of the "one-vote" model of plurality voting. As long as each citizen can only cast a single vote, their opinion is reduced to favor one selection at the consequence of a

Clever idea to use a dramatically zoomed image to allow for a variety of "stops" in the gradient! I've used random CSS gradient backgrounds on my personal blog for some time [1]. The "background options" at the lef

One thought is that it puts the computational load of verifying user-provided passwords in your database tier, rather than in your application tier, where it exists today. Let's say that right now, you have a 200ms computation necessa

Perhaps. But it's also worth noting that United States vs. Microsoft was coincident with the stagnation in Internet Explorer, with the case starting in 2000, during IE 5's tenure. For better or for worse, I think the case had a l
