Agreed, it's all about tradeoffs. On public CDNs- I mean public CDNs for common libraries (jQuery, Angular, Font Awesome) can improve page load time if a user already has the file. The more sites use the same public CDN, the more users

Great technical details in this post. When speeding up page loads, I usually struggle with: > You should have only one remote JS file and one remote CSS file. I get this in theory, but it's difficult in practice. For example, this p

Interesting. At least their logo is still Comic Sans :) http://www.libressl.org/images/libressl.jpg

I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I really can't see past Comic Sans to read the actual content.

Zillow does have a "hide" feature, which I used extensively when house-hunting this year.

Zillow used to tie into MLSs but their access was cut in most areas (as described in the article) due to a dispute. Used to be an awesome resource, now it's a ghost town. Would think it's only a matter of time before realtor.com s

That was my first reaction too, but I've come around since reading the article. What you're talking about is self-preservation, and of course animals display that all the time. This study shows that crows behaved differently when

We don't need a law. The public backlash from customers (see: this entire thread) is going to be more than enough to get the job done.

Anecdotal, but I recently needed a drill and couldn't wait for Prime shipping. Home Depot was charging $15 more, but they price-matched Amazon.

"Video-streaming devices" is very broad, and it shows how silly this decision is. Same argument can be applied to computers of any kind (tablets, laptops, desktops).

Why do companies choose styrofoam anyway? Is it cheapest? Should be illegal based solely on the sound it makes when it rubs together.

Making a good electric car is a HUGE challenge (see: the entire history of electric cars pre-Tesla). They need to keep their focus there. Once Tesla is delivering on the affordable mass market Model 3, then I think they'll turn up thei

They are following their roadmap, the Model 3 is next at $35k. Not cheap, but certainly affordable for many. Average new car price is $33,560 [0], so it's pretty amazing if they can hit that price with an electric vehicle. Also amazing

You can cast tabs from Chrome on Linux. What support are you asking about? Any developer can choose to implement the Chromecast API.

I don't understand this sentiment. What's the issue with having defaults that are used if no values are specified? Assuming the documentation is good and you can find a list of all options (and default values).

knockout.js doesn't do everything Angular does, but it does two-way binding incredibly well. Very efficient with binding and rendering, so you don't need to be concerned with total data binding count.
