I have no info on whether using such a list is legal, but it could be helpful and (as a white male) I'm not offended. A small software team I know of ran a job ad on stack overflow with over a hundred applicants completing a preliminar

Responsive design mode helps with a subset of CSS layout issues. It's much faster and easier than hooking up debugging on a live device, so it's invaluable during CSS development, but since it's still the desktop browser with

I would have notified them, too, and have done similar in the past. Amazon botched initial delivery of a $500 item, then sent a new one, but both eventually arrived. I called back and they thanked me and emailed me a shipping label and inst
