The colours compliment each other and it's simple. If I had to be harsh, it could do without the gliding animations. The parody site was instantly painful though, I think it was a to do with the grey/green on white; amusing afterw

That's a beautiful website you have there. I find it easier to motivate myself to learn something when it's pleasing to the eye :)

This is a very similar implementation with how Blackberry Blend is implemented. Although, the core value was for security. It's definitely hard to understand what was the motivation for WhatsApp to go this route or what their future pl

That's a very interesting thought. If that hominid was indeed superior, there would be more of those genetic traits still around, but it's fear which is a double edged sword - it makes some wiser, and some not-so-wise. Or maybe it

I found the rust-lang guide (now the rust-lang book[1]) very useful when first learning rust. The style used to teach ownership in that guide is very similar to this, but helped clear out a few remaining doubts I've had. Consider addin

Thanks, I remember watching this along time ago. I was under the impression they had landing the rocket all figured out after this :)

Can someone explain what the rocket was trying to do? Was it trying to correct itself to land vertically thrusters-first? I also don't understand how it got in that particular trajectory either from this vine.

In the example about the phone call, you could give the user the option to hit the call button, but once this is complete a dialog should popup saying, "Do you want this to happen automagically henceforth?" which would then take f

I think the difference is that with a PR it's public knowledge if the government responds/acknowledges/denies the request. It's also easier to type a bill and email it rather than use snail mail (I'm assuming that&#

I have a strange need to watch Star Wars now.. Jokes aside, this is a neat hack but I wonder if it would be possible to remove the DRM check from the electronics side itself. I don't have a Keurig machine myself, so I wouldn't dar

That may be because when you install it, you realize you don't have any one you know using the app. Your first action on any new social product, is to spam every action possible against one close friend to see what they all do. I'

The Mac app is also pretty awkward on non-Yosemite computers; a very broken UI.

That's not true at all. I have ads shoved in my face on my Mac continuously. It's bulky & ugly to use (UX-wise), so it's only used for business. I make myself available on nth number of services because they people I want

I'm really looking forward to publishing some early crates! A cargo search from the terminal would be ace as well.

My experiences with the Crazyflie come from a newbie's perspective since it's my first (nano) quad-copter. There isn't any autopilot with the Crazyflie, but it does come with an Xbox/PS3 key mapping that that lets you co

I've actually found the word "multicopter" is used in it's place a lot. There's even a subreddit /r/multicopter for it. RC planes is equally common as well.

I really like my Crazyflie and I've been meaning to use it with my Spark Core. So far I've controlled it with a Leap Motion controller but haven't had time to finish the controller entirely mainly because of time[2]. Also, th

This is something that as someone in my early 20s is trying to fix. I know a lot of people who don't like to work on projects or open source them because they're afraid of being judged and a feeling that everyone is watching you (

I considered what would be the opposite effect if you always considered others perspective. Wouldn't this affect the way you make decisions when you're required to put your foot down? Or is not a situation that often happens?
