It is unfortunate that you are so willing to consume as 'politics' whatever topic political strategists have decided to include in their party's talking points. It is fortunate that said political strategists chose LGBT right

I have no comment about the paper itself. You were bemoaning being downvoted, and I explained why. I was commenting on the context which you provided inside of your original comment. If you actually don't care or don't wonder wh

LGBT rights is not a topic inherently related to sex or sexual media. Just want to make that distinction.

It is discussed by people on 'political' tv != it is political. You can politicize anything you want. But there is nothing inherently political about showing support for an LGBT human being. 'What neoconservatives want to m

"Both sides of the argument." That Russia has a reasonable political platform regarding its LGBT citizens? I am not sure that it is possible to 'blow out of proportion' what is most certainly a human rights issue. This w

Agreed. Showing support for LGBT people == politics? Give me a BREAK.

Admittedly, I do use Angular and I do love it. So take my comment with a grain of salt. But from my perspective, I'd rather inherit a messy AngularJS project rather than a messy jQuery project. Or Backbone. With jQuery or Backbone, who

I found your comments to be hugely insightful. I am working on a project in the same general area (education) with a business partner and I was wondering if you'd be so kind as to let me pick your mind on the topic and learn from your

"Does that mean that accuracy and accountability don’t matter for click-bait pieces about China that “feel” true?" I suppose this photograph had the opposite effect on me. The moment I saw it surface on my FB feed, I had the immed

Thanks for the laugh. Also, I wonder what the definition for "traffic" is within the context of this research.

A great piece, I agree. Vanity Fair has some great content. I like Mayer. She does things her way, like any other CEO, yet imo much more charismatically.

What a shame, indeed. :/

Surely there is some limit to population growth. Certainly there are many countries whose populations are known to be in decline.

I absolutely agree with almost everything you've said here. You've essentially described the kind of company culture I want to build. In particular, you nailed it when you talked about the difference between "capitalism"

I think your assessment is more or less accurate. I see it this way: What practices have resulted in things being the way they are now? These practices are largely attributable to businesses whose policies are endorsed and enacted through g

Well - he made it easy for you because based on how he phrased it, you only had to come up with one reason cars are good. You picked some low-hanging fruit (not an ad hominem attack; your reasoning is sound). Cars are a clear solution to ce

I actually agree with the view you express here. While I find the story to be positive - after all, it is apparent that someone did something nice for someone else and improved their life a great deal - I think you are right to say that it

I understand the term. I was trying to underscore (unsuccessfully, apparently) that my original point was to be an entrepreneur whose principles depart from that of the current establishment. In other words, what I was suggesting was the ex

Photoshop chugs really bad on my 2012 MBA. Works great on my 2013 MBP though. I would say for someone who isn't creating assets (it sounds like you are a developer rather than a designer), a lighter tool is definitely preferable. That

> "PS and AI for asset creation" Yeah - I agree - I think that PS is mainly a tool for the creation of assets rather than designing flows and information architecture. And even less so for interaction design. I will however on

I suppose that is a derogatory remark, but I never claimed that to be an entrepreneur is a new thing. It is demonstrably not. What I did try to suggest is that it is perhaps a good way to deconstruct this problem.

I am no sociologist, but I think it would be rather safe to say that to it is going to take a lot for this to change. We've clearly adapted to the divide between the mega-rich and the "middle" class, so I am not sure it is a

This is not a dig on you - use whatever process works best for you definitely - but I've found that designing in HTML/CSS can lead to problems. It's true that some changes are easier in HTML/CSS. For example, instead of

I was going to say the exact same thing about the kerning. Good eye.

I agree that ads can be garish. I just see this as a separate problem from design itself. Recently XKCD made me think about how minimalism fits into design. For example, entirely text-driven: http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics&#x2F

I couldn't agree with you more. It illustrates particularly well the fact that there is a line in the sand to be drawn and that it is ambiguous. His is just but one perspective on a site that serves up one type of content.

by devilshaircut 13y ago
You are already able to do this; simply disable stylesheets or as you said use a reader app. We've already discussed using technology like adblocker. Your issue therefore is not with the design but rather with the browser. There is not

I didn't say text is bleak and characterless. I said that having no design variation is bleak and characterless.

Having webpages that are not bleak and characterless is not a resignation to having webpages that are like highways with unending billboards.

by devilshaircut 13y ago
Is it not self-obvious that if every page attempting to serve up content similar to that in the OP (pictureless editorial), the web would be bleak and characterless? Not debating the effectiveness of that kind of design, but rather pointing
