I'd add http://regexpal.com/ for historical completeness. It's the first such tool I used and prefer it even today. Very sad that from what it seems Steven Levithan sold entire domain recently and is not updated a

It is actually true for PCRE (PHP), Python, and and a bit for non-global Javascript regex. For global matches in JS it is, I dare to say, incredibly difficult, if not impossible. I haven't seen visualised submatches in JS anywhere. I&#

Pretty neat! And I see you have included that tileset natively. I think that making "pure ASCII image-less tileset" should be piece of cake as well: .tile:after { display: block; text-align: center; font: bold 30px

Not speaking about processing costs, this could be nice format for storing the data. Consider the example from page: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 a · 1 2 · · · · b · A # # · · · c · · # # # · · e · · · 9 # 3 · f · · · 8 # 4 · h · · # #

Feature idea: BRUSH. After finishing a shape or stroke, call it a brush and drag it. Brush from a shape (like in the example chevron): . 2 3 . . . . . 1 4B# . . . . . # # # . . . . . # # # . . . . # # 5 . . . # # # . .

Idea of shared/distributed backup leads me to vision of web browsers actively archiving and sharing public data. No more slashdot effects: more clients hits some public resource, more caches are filled and seeded in case of original re

Another evil that roams interwebs are "farewell" gates for outgoing links; eg dA [1]. Unlike URL shorteners which could be in rare cases useful [2] I see not a single benefit of this. [1] http://www.deviantart.com/

I suppose that’s the way most maps operate: loads map tiles and anchors current viewport properties in URL. Difference is that there is no 'real scroll position with real scrollbar'.

I cannot express how much I adore Georgify Dark (Hacker News) userstyle [1]. And it is quite amusing to see how many other userstyles exist for this site [2]. BTW, There was "Show HN: HackerNews reimagined without tables or center elements.

Most vanilla browsers lets you add your own user style into cascade. In Firefox it is userContent.css and userChrome.css [1] (loaded at startup), in Google Chrome custom.css [2](this file is 'live'). IE [3] and Opera [4] have something lik
