"How exactly can #3 not be accomplished on Brand X's website?" I think the whole point is, if charmin posts a new coupon on their website -- only normal visitors will see it. Charmin posts a new coupon on Facebook and 300k people instantly

Using !important is bad practice. If you're loading a child stylesheet properly, you should be able to overwrite the styles without having to use !important. You just have to make sure the selectors match up properly.

I'm not 100% sure how the plugin ecosystem on codecanyon, but I was one of the first authors on envato's tutorial marketplace and I'm still getting the odd sale here and there. Not to say that you'll be rich, but the sheer number of users o

How would you feel if you paid for the course, but their current farm wasn't working because of all the new signups, or people trying to do the same course? They want to build a big farm to begin with to handle the load.

It's not a version control system for Dropbox -- but you could also use LayerVault ( http://layervault.com/ ) to keep a nice backup of your files incase Dropbox does fail.

Learning everything about git is hard, but learning enough git to use personally isn't that hard. I use git personally to keep backups of my code and deploy sites I work on. I dont' work with other developers so my knowledge of git is worka

Serious Question: Isn't it hardest to get ruby/rails running on Windows?

I think you're looking at this a bit too seriously. I mean, they're at WWDC, they want to promote their site so they add it to HN. Either people complain that there is no video, or they complain that there are no screenshots. Do people real

I agree with you. "someone took a risk and put themselves out there for judgement" People don't build things to never see the light of day. People build things that they hope other people will use. Bringing it to HN is basically a huge show

Any developer worth his weight should be able to adapt to any framework written in the language he knows. If you know PHP/Ruby/Python/etc, you should be able to pickup a new framework within a day or two.

You just dive in head first and have to realize that a handful of your early projects will be garbage/useless. If you've built a program/app in another language, try and rebuild it in the language you're learning or one you've never used be

You could have just taken the entire article, said it was written by the original author and then linked back to the site. Instead of taking the premise of a popular article to raise pageviews on your site. It should have never said "by HAR

I just switched from a MB to a MBA. My older macbook was starting to show it's age and I really wanted to switch to a SSD. My MB was already a 13", so the size wasn't an issue. I ended up picking up a refurb for $1,099.

If you really want to switch, you can usually save a couple hundred dollars by buying a refurb from apple.
