I don’t disagree with you one bit, but I find it funny that you say: “we can't currently break them, so tradeoffs will always exist.” :) (That “currently” is just a weasel word, but this being the Internet I understand why you put

You keep repeating that comment but no, they are not. The idea is clever and the result is pretty good, but what the parent is saying – that in your implementation the line looks more broken up because it's more separated from the glyp

That seems to be the case indeed. It's off for me as well after a settings reset.

When iMessage fails you get a notification and next to the message appears a button which pops up a menu with “Try Again” and “Send as SMS”. http://tidbits.com/resources/2013-10/iMessage-failure.png (Unfortunately

> the default iPhone settings has "Send as SMS" off I don't think this is true. I have a phone here I only use for development where I don't think I changed that setting and it's on.

Very cool, I wrote the ThinkPad version at the time. I had forgotten about it, there is a link to my post at the time in that page and I’m happy archive.org exists http://web.archive.org/web/20070922232656/http:&#x

While I agree that Leica went off their rails, I don't think that's a good example, the Sultan of Brunei had a gold plated Mercedes made for him, I think a few cameras are easier to obtain :) > There are many rich and famous p

Check any photo from any of the great 35mm photographers of the past century and let me know how much detail you see and how much that detracts from the photo's value (not talking about monetary value of course).

The GF1 was good but it was a very early generation m43, any recent one from Panasonic or Olympus gives much better performance overall and will easily outperform your D70 (I moved from GF1 to E-M10 a few months ago).

What a thoughtful and insightful remark. If you don't believe that statement to be in the right ballpark you are out of touch with the world outside HN.

We are talking about people disabling JavaScript in their browser. One in several thousands is still a large over estimation.

That is not what I meant. I meant: “that code path only executes one time out of fifty (thousand), but you have to test it exactly like the core code that runs thousands of times more, so maybe you can drop the feauture since it's used

In my experience, when discussing development problems, there are two types of people: those that say “well, you could just […]” and those that tried to do it and learned from experience how many unexpected problems you are going to have, h

Yes, that's the ideal. Try and do it. Remember to test all the different progressively enhanced paths that only a tiny minority of your users is using.

I see the opposite, but I always try to remind myself that it's just my (and your) bias showing and not comment on it, because I would almost certainly be wrong. For example, the highly inflammatory title for yesterday's submissio

Yes. One single annotated screenshot would have been simpler, more explicit in what it does, it wouldn't have trained users to execute random code from the internet, and at the same time taught them how to revert the changes.

Contact names are not displayed in the lock screen until the first unlock (new in iOS 8). Notice how now all devices, not only ones with Touch ID, say that your phone needs to be unlocked for full functionality after a reboot.

I'm sure the API provides the information, that doesn't stop developers from doing crazy things. The rumor, whether true or false, is actually just more evidence of how Microsoft is devoted to binary compatibility. It's a fun

I don't see everyone hiding their faces, just two people, and “the pyro drivers noted that these mustaches were probably putting a ton of noxious chemicals into the air” may have something to do with covering mouth and nose.

This made me think that it would be useful to have different, easily switchable highlighting modes: syntax and symbols when I'm writing, structure when I'm reading code. Or maybe syntax highlighting for the scope I'm in and s
