   It looks to me like using a regex is more practical, something like :10,20s/poorly_named_var/nice_var/g

   AJAX is nothing more than sending and receiving data from the server to the client. That's what views do, and they are documented. There is also an is_ajax() test in Django (not that useful) and various apps that provide REST interfaces tha

   At first I thought this was a joke, but they seem to be serious. Looks like they should reach their goal easily.

   I had a quick look and cappuccino apps are not crawlable, at least the demos aren't. Sorry, but it doesn't look like cappuccino gets what the web is about. As somebody who uses text interfaces primarily I don't think desktop apps are amazin

   There are barely any comments. Oh btw, I couldn't figure out how to add one anyway. If that requires registration... make it obvious.

   Am I missing something or is writing documentation deemed unnecessary for large apps? Personally, I use YUIDoc which has some serious flaws, but I haven't found anything better yet.

   Looks nice but uh oh it's sloooow. You probably want to hook into a CDN if you stay on the frontpage for more than a few minutes.

    In the video Engelbart demos the computer mouse, word processing, hypertext, dynamic linking, collaborative real-time editing and other ideas that are still in use today.

    I don't think it's such a good idea to link directly to such huge files from here. The directory would do just fine http://planet.openstreetmap.org/planet/ and avoid bots or inattentive clicks. But good to know anyway!

    So this "SEO" who helping his clients to "clean up their profiles" doesn't even know how to disavow links [1]. Well, it's not surprising that somebody who hired spammers once would hire another idiot later. [1] http://www.youtube.com/watch

    "Opera is for people who appreciate choice, and we are going to make it even easier to choose Opera in the future." That's a nice spin. Less rendering engines, more choice!

    Seriously, you submit everything your write here? What is your goal? I want, you know, news relevant for hackers on this site. Not everything that was published on the internets in the last 24 hours. If I were you I'd try to find more relev

    Of course it damages maintainability when moving the cursor around becomes erratic. Your colleagues should probably configure their editors properly to remove trailing whitespace.

    He lost me at "á la carte". Incidentally, no proper unicode support is why I never used rails (or ruby) for anything more than a tutorial. Yes, that was a long time ago.

    I think the points raised in the five questions would mostly come up in underfunded projects. Sure, you can have everything you're willing to pay for. Especially things like > Can I adjust my feature set and specifications as we go?

    Fragmenting the CSS doesn't sound like such a great idea, as you will have additional requests on each page? But I guess you had that in mind.

    Kinda. When I need a 'static' site I just use whichever CMS/framework is best and wget --mirror the output.

    I assume the backend is not on github? At least I couldn't find it. If that's the case I find the title misleading as the code that does the analytics work isn't shared.

    I rememer Firefox primarily for being a snappy browser, they got rid of the kitchen sink Netscape/Mozilla suite bloat. Sadly Firefox is now far behind in regard to performance compared to webkit-based browsers, for which the XUL/Toolkit, th

    Very bad: - Manual loading of jQuery, will lead to multiple jQuery loaded - Missing apparently all action hooks, see wp_head(), wp_footer() etc. This breaks basic blog functionalities and many plugins. Not good: - Hardcoded path to CSS file

    Which browsers did you test your layout in? There's overlapping text in the boxes on the frontpage in FF, Chrome and Opera. That's all I tried.

    I have yet to find anything vim can't do that I'd like it to do. Like most critics you only make vague statements. Anyway, the source is out there, if there really was a need for new features somebody would implement them. Hint, hint!

    At first you had to pay for it, then it was annoying adware. Sure, it was a snappy browser and I even used it for a while, mouse gestures etc. But there were always good enough free browsers available. When they removed the ads in 2005 it w
