Not sure if this is what they're using but there is VoxelJS[1] - it has a very healthy plugin ecosystem so you can get a functioning game up and running quite quickly. http://voxeljs.com/

For anyone interested is JS history, this is the most comprehensive explanation of where JavaScript got its name I've heard (from Brendan Eichs POV)[1]. The podcast also deals with lots of other JS related history like what languages i

Ah good point - I thought it was an iMac and the peripherals were somewhere else in that surprisingly organised shelf.

Is that first photo [1] "normal" for an cell setup? I'd have thought computer access was similar to phone access (by appointment only). [1] http://cdn.theatlantic.com/newsroom/img/posts/2014

Any chance you have a link handy to their research [if its public]? I can find references to past research in their blog posts but none of their own on this exact topic.

This seems to happen a lot. Someone makes a wicked way to consume the news, but cant find a way to monetize it other than pivot into social analytics or premium content aggregation. Storyful is the other example that springs to mind. It

I uninstalled AdBlock after reading this[0] and found it really did make a difference. Esp on sites that loaded a dozen odd ads in different locations [news sites I'm looking at you]. [0] https://blog.mozilla.org/nnethe

^^Solid advice. The only thing I might add is to record these hours somewhere and then in your future quotes include a portion of time called maintenance, bug fixes, testing or something similar that accounts for these unforeseeable problem

PHP does to http://pecl.php.net/package/taint but I haven’t used it or the perl/ruby ones so I'm not actually sure how similar they are...

Love this idea. My only crit so far is that you limit my password to 20 chars. Really keen to see where you go with this :)

Yeah totally agree. Can also lead to very unreadable sass files to if your not very careful. Whilst teaching new devs where I work we ask them not to use @extend until we suggest it one a few reviews have been done.

I always associated 'ask' with where you submit questions - not where you see them. [edit] perhaps 'questions' wold be more appropriate? edit: Whilst we're at it how about some slight changes for mobile? The amount

You can sort of do this with @extend in sass - but I agree its nicer here, it seems to just sort of... do it.

Hmm. Cant seem to get it to work [even after disabling all other extensions]. Wont let me get past the first calibration test. Pity, it seems far more accurate than any of the others I've used! Looking forward to seeing a FF version!!

Hmm, is there a reference of who actually designed all these unicode chars anywhere? I remember looking a while back to no avail - these more 'graphic' ones resurfaced my interest. Did one poor sod do the whole lot [of Emojis] or...?

Surely this should be applied to 'web search engine' as an invention? Not just to one of the products built in the image of that invention. Google made a better search engine but its MO was still the same as Go.com or Altavista - search web

I like the idea, and the general construct looks good and the picture works well. But there are too many fonts in the text area [the white one is especially eye bleed worthy]. And the wording is a bit hard to get around. It should be reall
