AFAICT, the Chrome multiple tab drag to separate into a new window doesn't work on Mac OS X, only on Windows (and Linux?). This one really hurts me every time I need it on the Mac. What's even more frustrating is that multiple tab

Awesome. I've been using Mongoose with MongoDB with my latest Node project, but I've really wanted to take a closer look at RethinkDB. Thinky reaching 1.0 might just be the catalyst to do so.

Just curious... you said your best result was "applying directly" after seeing a company on CL, but that emailing the company after seeing on CL was not as successful. In this instance, does "applying directly" mean you

You can't npm install <foo> without getting an error message about the self-signed cert. At least until you update npm, which you usually do with npm update -g npm , but that will also fail with the same error. Fun! The blog p

This might be obvious to those with more sales experience, but can you explain what exactly you're looking for in regards to "how many minutes they spend on the phone"? In other words, is the success of the sales people about

Not disagreeing with your point, but I chuckled a bit at your examples. I wouldn't qualify either Facebook or Windows as being "first to market". Though I think this mainly just points out the squishiness of the term.

Wow, okay. I knew some of the bigger sites supported SPDY, but I didn't realize that the browsers outside of Chrome were already supporting SPDY (and HTTP2) as well. So (pardon my ignorance, I googled a bit but didn't find very co

Looking forward to that! Unfortunately the question then becomes, how long until all the major browsers support it? And once that happens, how long until the crowd not using the updated browsers is small enough that we can safely ignore the

I'm not an expert, but I was under the impression that Windows 8.1 is already rolling back some of the changes from Win 7 -> 8. I'd imagine MS will do a bit more of that and fix some bugs, and for the most part people will just

Yeah, I think that would be better. I guess for me personally the perfect solution would be a 12-hour clock that operates on the same principles as the European 24-hour (which I think is the same as the military clock?). So 00:00 to 11:59,

by mmorris 13y ago
That the clock starts at 12 has annoyed me for quite a long time (i.e., 12PM comes before 1PM). I kind of wish that non-military usage also used 0:00-11:59, if only for the logical consistency of it. Alternatively we could just switch 12PM

Just to be clear (and as mentioned in a comment on the post), ng-switch is actually closer in functionality to using multiple ng-if directives (which is only in Angular 1.1.5+). ng-switch actually adds/removes the elements from the DOM

Font selection is definitely more of an art than a science, and because of this trying to apply the theory of font selection to actual practice is difficult! Here is a Smashing Mag article that might be helpful: http://www.smashi

I think it would be pretty easy to get many people's phone password -- just by being in the right place when they unlock it, and watching closely. Most people I know don't cover up their phone at all when they enter it, even in pu
