I love this tool. I discovered it just this past weekend. I tried gliffy, dia, smartdraw, and a few others but finally settled on LucidChart. I used it to make this diagram: http://ktype.net/wiki/_media/ktype-system.png for my project ht

I love Google's Spreadsheet. I know there's API to dynamically create and read/write spreadsheets. If there was a way to embed their spreadsheet in an existing page while still keeping it editable (not just an html output widget) then it wo

I don't like most of the arguments in this post because it tries to show you the company's point of view on why you shouldn't get more money. While the arguments are indeed persuasive, they're moot. From the Economics point of view, your co

Thanks. I dug in and looks like it's still a non-JS system: https://github.com/mozilla/cockpit - I was hoping there'd be something like a jQuery.fn.plugin system to hook on to the Ace editor and override specific things.

Can this do code-collapse? I'd love to plugin the Ace editor like a textarea and replace almost all of the JS at https://zetabee.com/text - I see that it supports hidden characters so maybe there is a way to hide entire chunks of text (wh

Pardon my ignorance but are there any iPhone apps that convert speech to text (Dragon etc.) in real-time? It doesn't need to be 100% perfect but it could help a lot. I personally wouldn't have any problem whatsoever speaking clearly/slowly

I agree. Looks like the submitter is thinking of Two Generals. It's closely related to BFT ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine_fault_tolerance ) which does have some pretty complex solutions. Friend of mine wrote a paper on improving

A very good reason to put demo on a separate page is to simplify the implementation and make the html/css readable. I love demos where I can view-source, read the few pertinent lines of CSS/JS and have the library working within minutes. Pu
