If your first tip consists of a technique that has no effect on IE<8 (as it doesn't support the inherit value) and don't mention it, then the article is worth nothing. Looking at the rest of the 'advice', I'd say that's a reasonable con

It's good they're updating, I'd like to think my HN post helped with that. Now as other suggested, if they keep us all in the loop with (bi)weekly updates, then they're golden. Let's hope they do. Edit: Just got an email from them stating t

What this basically does is what you would do when starting without a CSS reset: Just reset the elements while you're styling them. Elements that you don't use don't get reset. That's fine of course, but if you make a lot of websites then y

Apart from form inputs getting really messed up, there's a 'massive' speed penalty you incur by using the * selector to reset everything. Where massive probably isn't large enough for most websites, so if it works, carry on :)

I have two things: 1. Just ask. Seriously. There is so much that people want but don't get simply because they don't ask and assume the person will reply negatively anyway. Asking doesn't cost anything. 2. if you can figure something out

It seems Typekit and Google made a deal: https://code.google.com/apis/webfonts/docs/webfont_loader.ht... I suppose they plan on 'sharing' the API where Google will supply/host the free fonts, and Typekit the paid ones?

Here's hoping Google will use Youtube to tell people to "download this plugin". It works for Flash, so why not? :)

I'll admit that the exposure it would get on hacker news factored into deciding to write it here. They have a valid excuse to ignore my own blog, less so here (well, I thought that anyway). Nevertheless, I see posts like these pop up on hac

Actually, Wolfire has done this a couple of times before I believe. Who ever said these promotions worked once? As far as I can see that is just an assumption to clarify the crazy, crazy behaviour of consumers not adhering to the "people

What are these deep and systemic problems everyone keeps talking about? I've seen them mentioned in this thread a couple of times now, yet no one actually mentions what those problems are. I'm curious.

That is suggesting the school will add RFID scanners on other places than doorposts in classrooms. Certainly that is evil, but it also isn't the case as of this moment.

Vendor prefixes are important because different browsers implement work-in-progress specs differently . Theoretically (or practically, such as with border-radius), given the same value, browser X will implement it vastly different from bro
