I don't think there's anything wrong with paying attention to what's essentially a discussion forum. Tracing one's follower count would be akin to tracking the "Read" stats on a forum topic instead of "Replies."

I've always promised the designers pixel perfection across browsers, but I agree that for a casual site it's OK to leave some aspects of typography to the browser defaults, and to fudge layouts with uncalculated "em" spacing.

After too many years of doing this, this is the best advice I can give: The most common issues are inconsistent spacing between elements. Don't try to understand why this may be, instead, use padding if margin isn't working, vice versa othe

Another example that with this government (and most) it's their way or the highway. I'm with you -- there's nothing ideal about it. But it's certainly noble.

"The dumpdata management command now accepts individual model names as arguments, allowing you to export the data just from particular models." That'll be nice for testing.

If everyone did this, he wouldn't have a thing to eat. I'm not knocking it, but it's something to think about. But that brings us to a more important point: Why does this guy have to forage to survive without money? Shouldn't he be able to

Predictable, content-insensitive comment. Plenty of people have a problem with Zed Shaw, or Joel Spolsky, or Jeff Atwood, or Michael Arrington, or ___________, but it's really tedious to hear the same whining with every story that comes acr

You're not alone, but you're likely in the minority. They've built up a nice little data ecosystem, and I for one love Yahoo Sports. The journalism is so-so, but being able to get a player's Game Log/other stats quickly is something I value

That's exactly what I thought: I want my keyring to work with _any_ keys. Further, this key makes the entire key-keychain apparatus uncomfortable. It holds fewer keys and they are likely to hang at an awkward angle.
