You'd also want to map something more convenient to ESC. Like jk. That way you won't have people immediately cursing this system that requires them to find the ESC key every time they finish editing a piece of text. Something mo

Wow, it's really quite offensive. It's almost as if it's been deliberately crafted to mess with one's peripheral vision while attempting to focus on the article.

I'm sure that bringing Brendan Eich's politics into question when he moved into CEO position has made this a more popular trend.

I found it interesting that it works at all given that it's using td elements as board cells, jQuery to compare dom elements for cell referencing/dereferencing, and setInterval to update the animation and gamer input.

If it's a shared whiteboard with embedded video chat how it it tied to a particular book? They indicate that they are starting with two books for now.

Isn't that part of a general problem with corporations? It's almost a requirement to prioritize cash flow over being decent to people.

It's hard to imagine that a high number of intersections are so bad for left turns that a three right turn detour is warranted. I've seen some left turn lanes get severely backed up during rush hour on the busiest of streets, but

This is possibly because the buttons aren't labeled. Depending on whether you see them as "zoom in/out" buttons or "add/remove columns" buttons, your expectation is going to be different.

Changing my browser window width doesn't seem to affect anything. Even after a page reload. It doesn't seem responsive at all. Am I missing something?

Maybe nothing. I didn't look into other options because Tarsnap is already cheaper than a cup of coffee per month and it's run by someone I trust and want to support.

How "painfully" self-centered. It's not about whether you consider it to be enjoyable or easy. It's about what Colin is likely to experience. And given his past reluctance to listen to similar Tarsnap related busine

It's in gigabytes right on the home page conveniently converted. How does $0.25 / GB - month feel less real than....anything else?

Exactly. What patio11 calls "Geek to Geek" business and suggests Colin move away from. Any new user who sees the suggested standard three tier pricing scheme is going to immediately recognize a traditional business. And there g

Or...How I would run an online backup service completely unrelated to Tarsnap, with different goals, different priorities, and different ideals.

I use it to backup my entire machine from / It's only about 2MB per day to upload. I have a daily cron that does the backup and deletes all but the latest two images. Quality of service, along with Colin's amazing pricing, ma

You're reccomending a high sugar diet for weight loss. Yet its nutritional value is nil. How does it benefit? Low starch, high sugar, low fat, decent protein sounds like a diet that would be improved by omitting the sugar.

Would a 100 calorie quantity of bread not be better than a 100 calorie quantity of sugar cereal? Assuming of course that you don't buy bread with sugar in it. "Although the Glycemic Index provides some insights into the relative d

"Parents getting educated" I think most of us know that sugar cereals are bad, sunnyd is fake and disgusting, and soda is poison. The problem is we just don't care. At least that's what it looks like. When you see an o

The marriage issue is complicated by many factors, one of which is religion. It doesn't necessarily mean he doesn't believe in equality.

A lot of people are against same sex marriage for various reasons but aren't necessarily against homosexuality or LGBT. More specifically, Brendan has publicly indicated that he intends to actively pursue equality throughout the organi

I see that Eich put up a small amount of money to support a bill against gay marriage. This says nothing about the way he treats people, or how he might serve as CEO. Is there something more, or is it really all about his political ideals
