With low gas prices, and new budget airlines coming up every month, this is going to be a fascinating traffic problem to observe. Every city wants the tourist income, but not the tourist baggage :)

>Why would a developer want to see a cached version of a page? A developer using this is actively developing the look and feel of the site so presumably would want to see the live version. This makes no sense and would only cause issues

I had been using an open source variant of this the last few months, which ironically has a similar approach - https://github.com/NodeSquarespace/node-squarespace-server This is amazing news though! Hoping the next ste

I would say the easiest way to check is if actions match the talk. If ideals are altruistic, then margins and prices should reflect the same. You cannot have 2x margins and claim your goals are idealistic.

Just out of curiosity, what was the idea behind his startup? I've been avoiding getting a job along the same lines, but can never imagine going into 100k debt for a startup obsession.

I always think of Michael Lewis' Moneyball story when I read such things. When everybody else is scouting for 200k players, why not pick promising fresh graduates? You might have to spend more time mentoring, but you get extra cash to

>A lot of the design problems have been solved already This is partly true. Design problems have been solved for isolated cases. You still require designers to choose the right combination of solutions that work for particular use cases.

Well, this was ironic... the article focuses on the ubiquity of data, but lacks the UI design to get its message through.

Nice visualization! Maybe they should have limited the colors to just the primary ones. I had a hard time figuring out the gradients in the middle.

I was comparing importing Web Components using HTML imports vs. static inlining the web component code within initial markup sent to browser. Putting it another way - whats the advantage of HTML imports over server side imports? Server side

I had the exact same thoughts when I first read about web components, or rather HTML imports in particular. The extra requests and latency introduced are not worth the benefits of having pluggable components. I can already imagine people wr

I agree. It's kind of ironic that after all these efforts at making web development easier, it's still difficult for a non-technical person to figure out how to get a simple store online. The learning curve associated with products like Wor

I agree. There is a lot of constructive criticism in the article, and I'm sure Khan Academy would love this kind of feedback to help improve the platform. Hell, even I learned a couple of syntax usages just watching videos of the learning i

Another good read is "One Hundred Years of Solitude" by Gabriel Garcia. Its about the birth and death of an entire family line, flowing through the wars, migrations and incest that revolved around it (atleast thats my interpretation :)).

In my case, it's ironic that I feel lethargic right after breaking fast (probably due to digestive system kicking in), while the rest of the day is a breezy peacefulness.
