Try something like 1Password, completely set me free of this stuff.

Took me ten minutes to realize that there are now 2 gear icons on the page. Was continually clicking the one in the "global header", but there is second one on the page where the Display Density options are located. How's that for bad UI de

For 2. this is where the iphone/mobile/tablet apps come in I guess. I was thinking it would be great to have an extra sensor or two that would help detecting the auto away.

Which holds true with my personal definition of innovation: find opportunities and/or challenges then apply solution. Great example of this! (Not necessarily find some crazy new solution to a problem -- that's called research)

This is iPhoto events, at least for me. I call it my wayback-machine :)

It would be great to support something that shows the variation in the data for this stuff (average/median for response times is a notoriously bad idea). Other than that, love it!

Maybe from his perspective? I'm sure people with a startup idea may have a different opinion?

Never met Aunt Tillie, but my guess would be what's 1 hour for you is days work for her, if she'd be able to complete it at all.

I think the app ratings for the popular apps are all useless (they're well know apps, other people rave about them, so no need to read all the reviews). I agree on the long tail being useless as well. Instead, I think it's most useful for t

The 2nd in the list has: "Usually dispatched within 4 to 6 weeks" That's no good, at least not for the implied use case!

Pretty common elsewhere in the world too. In the Netherlands they call it the "Green Wave", and marketed as such. I suspect b/c speeding in those area's really doesn't buy you anything. So when traffic is light, they double as a "speed bump

Your first problem is marketing (no one to help you, etc)... So pick a name for the project!

The article is interesting up to a point, but what really struck me is that this blog claims to be written by a 15 year old. I think the topics and depth of the other articles on the blog spell great things for this guy's future!

Thanks for that link. Unknowingly I did exactly the same thing (we invented a non-existant island in the geography of the site I was working on).

Ah, correct, thanks :-)

Makes me think of the trick we used a large website I used to work for: we'd have everybody and their mother copy our T&S because that was easier that writing it themselves. So we added a 2 very uncommon spelling mistakes into it on pur

The article doesn't do a very good job of explaining "Bandit algorithms". The closest s/he comes is this, but that really doesn't enlighten me: So, what is the bandit problem? You have a set of choices you can make. On the web these could

To each his own opinion. For me mutliple levels of bullets approach a mind map [1], rather than a list of things. And those can be really handy. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_map

Ever tried using Plex? (Not saying that's perfect, but in 2,5yrs of usage, and 24/7 on, it has yet to crash on me). http://www.plexapp.com/

Wow! This is a _weekend_ project? It looks very slick! How many weekends if I may ask?

As patio11 already noted, this is a bad idea. Further more, I don't see what it solves? Can't you just ssh into the box, and have that window open? Isn't this a window manager problem rather than a "rake/infrastructure" problem?

It doesn't need to be internet enabled, that's the point. As long as I can guess the URL you are using for your development machine and have you click on a link on your laptop one can make this work (in the bad sense of the word).

Isn't this how Jekyll works as well? It's just that the _posts directory is special. But the base entity is a "Page" which exactly functions as you mention unless I'm mistaken. Also the YML frontmatter is fully accessible in the template en

Indeed, love the design (especially the payoffs for each article, remind me of the Search Results Page). However, the titles of the articles are sufficiently vague to make it hard selecting what to read and what to skip. Looks good though,
