Will show this to the wife. She has a hard time understanding why working on week-end projects by 45 minute chucks isn't effective as I need 20 minutes to get in the zone and restart my thoughts where I left them

zomg, I loved Myst. One of the real few highlights of my gaming life along with Elite and Quake. I tried firing up Myst a couple years back, I was shocked to realize it was all still images in small sizes, I would have sworn that I used t

Except there's nothing to "fix". That's one way to do triangle in CSS, it's not better or worse than another one, and it's been known for ages . The cool thing here is the visualization, not the technique itse

Nothing new in this article, but I will endlessly upvote anything that says loud and clear that the new Gmail sucks till they fix it.
