Gaston: [tossing the book aside] Belle, it's about time you got your head out of those books and paid attention to more important things. Like me. The whole town's talking about it. It's not right for a woman to read. Soon she starts getti

It means I can look at it and get it without having to think about it. It has nothing to do whether or not it floats someone's boat, like the rest of your post alludes to. Clients? What design ends up being in the eyes of a client is not re

There's http://lesselements.com/ for vendor-prefixes & https://github.com/machito/animate.less (based on http://daneden.me/animate/ ) for some pre-made animations.

Not sure if the admins can add something about the autoplaying vid in the title to make people aware, but that turned me off pretty quick.

It's a silly/dumb way to try to calculate it at all; the people making those tweets had the ability to do so [potentially recklessly] while still behind the wheel and as soon as it happened as opposed to the cyclist that had to get to his d

The worst part about all of this - to me, anyway - is that they had the opportunity to be clever and funny about it and could have left it at the McDonald's-buys-BK PR stunt with continuing professional-sounding tweets, but instead they was

The Pandora default doesn't show Rdio, LastFM or SoundCloud, so I was expecting them to show up similar to Spotify, but it went even further away from online radio into "free MP3" apps. It also isn't obvious that you can continue to click o

Someone posted Pantametron when http://www.140verses.com/discover was posted last week or so. Both are strangely delightful.

I'm impressed by our representation so far; a recent chart of HN job posts showed 0 results for us.

I'd actually be really interested in reading about some of those scenarios if you have any links/blogs available. Perhaps I was a little more aware of my online surroundings, but as children and pedophiles become increasingly technical and

Flowdock has its own issues, but it was still a better overall experience than what I had on [the previous] Hipchat.

Right. It's offensive to me that this is happening and I'd be concerned that my colleagues would be resentful that I had it easier than their male counterparts in getting through the door.

Thank you for reminding me to check if I could finally delete my account - I can and I did. It was impossible to delete accounts due to an "issue" in their system for the last 3 or 4 months and was only fixed within the couple few weeks. I

In reading the article and thinking back to being a kid who'd create free-trial Juno accounts and dig through drawers to find the Post-It notes that my parents' AOL accounts' passwords were on just to spend hours talking to strangers on the

I'll add this to your comment since it's much better than the one I'd written; Dancesafe sells DIY kits for certain chemicals as well -- http://dancesafe.org/products/testing-kits

Perhaps it was not your intention, but your post read as if women applicants are interviewed no matter what, and if they are deemed "good enough", they're hired for the sake of balance. That's what I found both incorrect and offensive, spea

The argument was not written as "10 resumes come in, any women in those 10 are guaranteed an interview." It was "Women get interviewed no matter what." Even if the intent means well, these types of threads are cluttered with resentment of t

Interests and aptitudes are relative to pre-determined ideas of capability and who is already in those fields, who we imagine when we think about those roles and who is therefore inspired the most by them. Women had no issue pulling their w

To add to this, I know that when I'm nervous I smile a lot and laugh to try to ease my own tension, so I can understand how an interviewer would take that as being naïve or not serious about the role, when it's really just a case of anxiety

The logotype is set as "XBOX", so yes, writing it as "Xbox" looks uninformed.

People would be much more apt to become hobbyist developers if they even knew where to start; we're all curious beings with problems we want to solve. My interest in web came only after I realized how easy it was to look at the innards of a

It's been around for awhile, Jason Santa Maria probably did it most famously with his blog way back when and more recent CMSs like Visual Idiot's "Anchor" were intentionally created to allow people the ability to design for the post, rather

It totally does. I always thought the official was "XBOX"; "Xbox" looks like the way someone uninformed would write it or that it was an afterthought of a product.

Design is about trust and being able to do what you want to do without thinking. Facebook doesn't help users navigate to the places they don't want them to go to.

Not sure what the downvote's about. Does HN automatically flag posts with lots of links?
