English is refactored quite frequently. I'm by no means an expert, but here are some observations. * American English could be considered one such refactoring. Some common changes include: removing vowels without sound (e.g. "labo

Likewise, but I've found the performance on a few key websites to be awful. Namely Facebook, and often Google Inbox. Another consequence of switching has been difficulty in using things like my Apple TV or Chromecast (e.g. casting a vi

I think you're conflating not shaping traffic at the ISP or Backbone level with something else. The something else in this case is making requests to URLs a consumer of a page may or may not be vetting. If anything it's not treati

I've been programming Ruby and using RSpec for quite some time, but quite honestly I wouldn't use it for a new greenfield Ruby project tomorrow. I've consistently found that it's too difficult to teach and for a team to

I really wanted to use Gitlab for my next side project, but Circle CI doesn't support them, and I really don't want to pay Travis for my shitty proj. Hopefully this changes some day soon.

This just isn't what I want. In Chrome I have two separate profiles: work, and home. This lets me have work and home specific history, extensions, and settings. Opening a new tab in one doesn't bleed into the other. This is what I

I'd imagine a city like Windsor might be better suited. There's tonnes of space for the HQ, it's close to the border, it has relatively easy access to Detroit Metro Airport, and has its own local airport for those flying with

I don't think that's quite true unless you had your tables dynamically laying themselves out by viewport size too. E.g. using SuitCSS Grid: <div class="Grid"> <div class="Grid-cell u-size1of3

I'm originally from neighbouring Kingsville (small world!). It's been interesting to me that more development of greenhouses hasn't happened in Harrow where the land is less fertile, and vastly cheaper.

In this particular case it's because Bulma is using node-sass as a precompiler. I'd wager a guess this is true of most CSS packages that you're finding on NPM. Additionally, it's more pleasant to use than Bower (in my hu

Transpiling may actually be the safest way to use JavaScript, especially given its rate of change. Take, for instance, a number of features trickling down the ECMA2015 pipe: modules, classes, "let", etc. Using these features witho

I'll definitely give Firebug a try. I hadn't even considered it to be honest. I thought I remembered reading a while back that it was no longer important after Mozilla decided to brew their own.
