It's great that you've written a modal dialog library but what differentiates it from the other popular options out there? A 75 line modal dialog library (+mootools) isn't a huge achievement by itself -- I usually write my own dialog modals

Don't put in a single hour of work beyond the estimate if you don't have a retainer, or you don't at least have good faith that the client has put the check in the mail. Why? You need some ability to walk away from the client without losing

Interesting that you point out Twitter Bootstrap -- which to me is becoming the great equalizer for new product/startup websites and a hallmark of lack of creativity or any sign of thoughtful design. Sure, the UI is great, much like the des

Chromebooks already have a built-in shell called CROSH, which provides a very limited command set but does have an SSH client.

Just because it's all public does not mean I want one single source that in plain English (err.. cucumber?) defines key areas of my website that I want to ensure are always up. Seems to me this just gives potentials hackers a map to the pub

I agree with you in principal but I think practically this isn't always possible. Sometimes you don't know if a product is worth being an entire platform until it's been thoroughly field tested. It's too expensive to assume that everything

It's not productive to have a site that randomly locks out visitors. No matter how clever the code design is, this is a product flaw.

Weird. After reading this, I'm not sure you come from the same planet I do. I literally had the exact opposite experience you did. I couldn't afford an iPod when it was released, so I bought the Chinese knock-off. Several, actually -- I wor

I do all development on remote servers because I like to code from many different machines. Setting up a LAMP stack on all my potential dev boxes would be painful and cumbersome, and may interfere with other functions that I intend those ma

I feel (and I believe this to be the author's sentiment as well) that Google Plus does not innovate enough on any existing products to grant it significant relevance. Google dominated because it did search much better than it's competitors

I think the point of the article is that the intent and initial design of Facebook was radically different as it's original purpose was to provide something that did not exist previously that is useful. This isn't Google giving us something

I have to wonder if the cost isn't somehow related to the ginormous file size. I have to imagine that millions of people downloading a file this big constantly is expensive in terms of bandwidth. Maybe they want those downloading to truly h
