ah, good point, "Our #callout element is set to position: absolute, and since its parent element, #content is set to relative, the offset properties we’re using on #callout are based off the coordinates created by #content." would be nice t

nicely explained. one key trick they're missing: position:relative + position:absolute, which I find myself using more than position:absolute alone. With a parent of position:relative, child position:absolute elements are position absolute

I would hope so, but I remember reading that the hardware was one of the keys to their success; "here plug this in, it will do your table management. And by the way, people can make reservations now too." Maybe now a competitor could get

hmm, good point, I hadn't thought that this would be for optimization purposes. but is it premature optimization if the css way is fuglier and the js way is fast enough to get the desired framerate on modern browsers? would like to see s

Interesting to see this is possible, but this is beyond what I would want to use css for, how far will "look ma! no javascript!" go? Seing the logic in a jquery click handler seems at least as readable / maintainable as a bunch of css rule

anecdotally, you can pull this off if you have worked somewhere for a while on location and then go remote, but going for the full salary from a remote location from the get go, not sure.
