   Right now it looks* like rails_admin is a bit more feature complete as far as CRUD administration goes (+ history of edits). While ActiveRails has feature like comments which may be more relevant to less technical users. * Disclaimer: I'm m

   I really like the .transition, and the attention to browser support in .gradientH and .gradientV. Very nice touch! Tiny nitpick: IMO the call to action styles doesn't belong (seems a bit to specific for a generic boilerplate). Other than th

   I would skip the jQuery-ahm, especially since you are already committed to jQuery as a dependency. //Overly simplified example $.get('tooltips.php?id=tooltip-id',function(data){$('#tt').text(data);});

   Take bricestacey's advice, use RVM. I was in the same boat as you when getting started with Ruby - it seemed like I was always fighting with gems and other dependencies - "there has to be a better way!", I thought. And there was... I read t

   IMO Spotlight is the best example of minimalist software design. In a single universal field you have instant: app launcher, calculator, dictionary, file search, email search, contact search. My single best tip for Mac power-users: learn

   Kohana 3 changed everything around, lacked documentation, and made things much more verbose for relatively little benefit. This is the major thing that turned me off about Kohana. I loved the original concept - "PHP5 fork of CodeIgniter

   My first time in IKEA I definitely got very lost. I think I went down one of the "shortcut paths" and ended up going back and forth between the beds and the office area trying to find the direction I was supposed to be going - and I was

    It's a tech demo. The point is to explore the capabilities of CSS - not to be a shining example of usability. Related: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2400392

    Edit: Sorry, other people beat me to it. See other replies re:text colors. However I agree about the contrast, I checked on my external dev monitor (vs. my super bright MBP screen) and the contrast could definitely use some work.

    The Webkit implementation uses 2 layers of: looped keyframes, color transitions, multi-colorstop gradient backgrounds (which are then animated via background-position animation). And all that sits under two larger inset rgba box-shadows. [+

    Yeah, on some monitors the contrast is pretty low. I'll probably bump it up.

    Good to hear, I didn't get a chance to test on the iPhone. Also, I am not a man. But thanks!

    I'm still working out the kinks in the alternate Firefox implementation which was actually my first attempt at this effect.

    The button uses a combination of a border radius and and inset box shadow to achieve the top highlight, and for some reason Chrome doesn't seem to contain the box shadow within the border boundaries.

    I remember being impressed by Dragon Lab's Dragonfish Login Form Demo[1] when it first came out. They implement the effect by using a rather large background image and a mask image and move the background image around via Javascript. I want

    Unfortunately I agree. I hope we are both wrong though, and it really is an iPhone5.

    I would venture a guess that one part of FaceTime is actually the streaming protocol it uses - HTTP Live Streaming - which is indeed by Apple and already Open Source, and used by Google, etc. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Live_Streamin

    I think something more like this [1]* built in server proposal would be nicer, with less dependencies. Yes, people always bitch about how easy it is to just set up Apache, but they fail to realize the departmentalization of apps is great fo

    1. Not that I know of, but it's just two clicks to the right on the home screen - I usually just leave it running all the time, so it isn't much of a problem. 2. No idea. If I had to guess it wouldn't be harder than the original jailbreak,

    I usually use extra classes instead of IDs to differentiate specific chunks in cases where the may or may not be multiples in the future (e.g. you want nav at the top AND bottom of a page). <ul class="main-nav inline-list">

    1. Separate presentation from layout. For example, all common layout (margin, padding, display, positioning, floats) go in structure.css and color, border styles, background, etc. go in presentation.css. It is far more likely that you will

    I can't speak for the OP, but as I use a similar system I can venture a guess that some of the following might be worthy of chunk status... For a website: callouts, user quote styles, tables styles [zebra stripes, etc.], feature lists, intr

    I jailbroke my 2nd Gen AppleTV and can confirm XBMC works nicely - and you can add different apps to it too. I did the new untethered jailbreak using Seas0nPass, it wasn't to difficult (~30 minutes). Edit: Oh, and XBMC just gets added as an

    I agree completely! I am working on a much better variation fo this theme, but with much better layouts and without all the goofy default UI margins and padding.
