This shows great dedication on behalf of the team to provide a temporary solution to a more permanent problem. Well done. More importantly, though - and not to discredit any of the hard work that's been done - hopefully the companies take a

I strongly disagree - 900 hours is plenty of time for the right candidate. Granted, you couldn't put my mom or dad in this course and turn them into a front end dev in 12 weeks, but for the right candidate - absolutely. The program runs fro

It looks like there was an attempt to copy at least some of the original AI behavior. If you click on the "Learn" tab, you can choose which ghost to play and visually see their AI objectives via a little node that travels infront of the gho

Interesting idea. Do you have any examples at the individual consumer level?

I understand what mean about it not being part of Microsoft's DNA, but it seems like you're trying to blame Microsoft's poor web presence on its age. How do you then rationalize other pre-Web companies like IBM and Apple who have managed to

True, but we weren't knee-deep in the cloud in 2007 like we are today. SSH, Vim, Google Documents on 1GHz machines? You could get some actual work done now with a dock.

Not trying to be a knob here - is this an improvement over creating a webkit browser window with the same dimensions as your mobile device and changing the browser's user agent?

I was also 13 in 1996 and am now a front-end web developer. This brings back fond memories.

This is really cool. The entry barrier to building HTML5 mobile apps gets lower every day, thanks in part to developers like those at Twilio who open-source their hard work for the benefit of the community. Thanks for sharing.

Agreed. This is where I quit.

I really like the ethos of Hakyll, and have tried using it in the past but couldn't wrap my head around it. I feel the tutorials would benefit from something more for someone who is also new to Haskell and Markdown, as well.

This is probably the first time I've understood node.js.

Hopefully this doesn't sound too hypercritical - I'm not posting this simply to nitpick - but I think some of the site's English is a little off. I mean, it's readable enough, but there are a few areas where it seems like something was tran

I love these sorts of maps, but I noticed something unexpected that I'd never noticed before: Japan's IE6 usage is almost six times higher than in the US. For a country that I usually think of as "high-tech" (and the same place that gave us

2011 was exciting in that, for what seems like the first time, mass consumer reaction played a significant role in affecting the decision-making of several corporations: Bank of America, Netflix, GoDaddy, and now Verizon. Hopefully this wil

Sort of off-topic, but does anyone know anything about the software the Airbus (or any commercial aircraft, really) runs? I'd be really interested to know how abstracted the code is from the hardware.

This absolutely needs an interface demo. While the page looks nice, I have no idea what the product actually does, and I'm not really interested in giving up my email address just to find out...

While depth and ambition of this project is impressive (take a look at the screenshots in the .zip), I think the goal seems a bit lofty, particularly when there are many more-than-adequate free/open-source monospace fonts available.

You can limit a search to a directory with AckMate. Just select the directory in the Project Drawer and press Command while searching. You should see the Search button text change to 'In Selection'.

Dude needs to google SASS or Stylus if he's considering this a problem. So many other CSS features are only supported by a limited subset of browsers. You have to start treating them like "extras" for the most up-to-date users and gracefull
