Thanks for the kind words and sorry to the OP for hijacking this thread. I was really just floored by the coincidence... Great suggestion, by the way! I added this feature so now adding "www." will go to the subdomain as well.

You're right, it should be window size. Fixed it accordingly.

Sure! We're using http://user-agent-string.info/ I didn't feel up to doing the parsing myself...

Wow, talk about synchronicity... I put up our site doing the exact same thing last night ! Design-wise you're definitely ahead, however. :-) Our version is at http://www.browser-details.com . When you sign up you get your own subdomain -

Whoops, bad news for Syncly ( http://www.syncly.de/ ) - does exactly that.

Funny, that's actually what I thought this article was about. Who gets excited about another "normal" running shoe anymore? I bought my Vibram FiveFingers after reading "Born to Run" and never looked back.

Sorry, didn't mean to imply it was my project. It's just one I'm using for a site with a lot of trackers (some clients do go hog-wild on those).

This is my pre-commit hook for Django projects: https://gist.github.com/858223 It just runs pyflakes and does some sanity checking. Best of all, it doesn't go around stashing files or otherwise messing with your working directory or repos

Funny how "intellectual property rights" got shortened to "property rights". Makes them easier to defend, I guess, since they're "just like physical property". They're not!

Just use django-compressor ( https://github.com/jezdez/django_compressor ). It does this as well as minifying and compressing static assets.

You might say that Pubsubhubhub is the logical extension of the Google Reader concept. It allows you to "read" those feeds programmatically and enables the content site to notify Google Reader of updates so they get there quicker. Also, any

You're very welcome. I see now that it was submitted before ( http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1736030 ) but didn't get any upvotes. Bad timing, I guess. I submitted it again in the hopes that it will help others ( http://news.ycombinato

I've recently started using CSS3PIE ( http://www.css3pie.com ) in production and can only recommend it. It enables you to use CSS3 declarations such as box-shadow and border-radius in Internet Explorer, even under version 6! It's trivial to

This is probably off-topic but I'd never heard of Inventables ( http://www.inventables.com , referenced in the article) before. I'm having a geekgasm just browsing through the weird and wonderful articles on there. Love the mini-faq below e

I much prefer django-compressor ( https://github.com/mintchaos/django_compressor ) and similar apps which allow the template designer - instead of a developer - to define the asset files. Just wrap your stylesheet definitions in {% compress

True but that would usually be info you could just pick up from any book. The "ask your pediatrician" disclaimer just makes things seem dangerous that really aren't. SIDS is 6x higher in families where one or both parents smoke. The lower i

by jonasvp 16y ago
And what would the pediatrician say? No one knows what SIDS is caused by and deferring to external authority won't change that. Do whatever feels right for you.

But definitely a plus in Amsterdam. You can get by fine with English but to really feel at home - you should know the language. This is assuming you want to make the place you live in feel like home.

Completely agree. While the cancel button might be useful, the reset button is such an invitation to disaster, I don't know why it was even invented. If I spend time filling out a form, why would I want to clear it? If I make an error, I'll

Lawrence Lessig has an interesting take on the movie: http://www.tnr.com/article/books-and-arts/78081/sorkin-zucke... He basically says that it's old media (Sorkin and Hollywood) casting new media (Zuckerberg) in a bad light, compared to

I've always been a big admirer of Hunter S. Thompson's style. His point was that there is no way you can separate the author from the story so you might as well go in whole-hog. No author can give all the facts and "just the facts". They ca
