why should they respect the semantics? Those were arbitrary and out dated. I don't see any need for that.

What I have increasingly seen (not because of the NSA - most of my friends just assume the government are watching - they grew up on 24 and Jason Bourne) - is that email is just not something they use much. I'm told that email is all &

I learned a lot from the ads, it was a way to stay current with the latest video card or motherboard, or CPU release. I watched the ads change from cga to VGA to retina, from Athlon and Pentium to the current crop, which interestingly have

But the reality is, everyone that visits your site already has jQuery in their cache, because the common cdn sources are so ubiquitous, this making this 4k library actually add to your page load footprint. Using the most common, most likely

This makes no sense. I, like many people here use a Mac and Chrome and can't remember the last time it crashed. I suspect this is something specific to your installation, possibly a rogue plugin you've installed. My experience is

of course better cameras make better photos, that was never in question, and the 5D mkIII is one of the best out there. My point was that shooting that wonderful camera in 5mp mode is stupid. "The higher end cameras made a huge dif

See apple.com for your answer. I can't believe on hn you'd ask why anyone should upgrade. Being on the latest version is more secure for one. People can stick with old versions, but then they'll miss out on the new stuff. For

except the sensor isn't a CCD, and your argument is complete nonsense. Of course a 5D mkIII is a better camera, of course it will produce better results, but my point was that if you're going to down sample, why not save yourself

how do you think it comes by that image quality? It's a total waste of money to use a 5Dmkiii in 5MP mode. You'd never notice the difference between nouse, shadow detail, highlight clipping, autofocus if you used an entry level ca
