You are arguing for having a very narrow selection of people to be interviewed, don't you think that stunts your knowledge if all you would read/listen about is people in popular tech start-ups? Entrepreneurship is so broad, I love the dive

What a poor comment and wholly unnecessary. Even though I agree that the golden ratio article here is fanciful to a fault, the whole premise here is to put some thought into typography and calibrate text to look its best. The math here is e

Have you asked your members? Personally this sounds like a potential paid membership site, lure them in with content & tools, keep them there with the community.

Neuroscience, as a science, might be growing by leaps and bounds but if you ask the average neuroscientist how much the field currently knows about how the brain works I think the answer will be a great deal more modest. It's very early day

So you're basically saying that following bad practices is inconsequential since - among the thousands of CMSes, WordPress is the most widely adopted, despite an abundant availability of alternatives that claim to be simpler, more powerful

this is what finally got me to the pull the plug on my account, I got tired of the emails trying to connect me to people I didn't know. Each email reminded me I wanted to kill the account and whatever motivation I had to keep it slowly erod

If someone could roll common image functions into one, with webpage screenshots and a way to optimize images for high resolution displays (smartly handling quality and compression) - that would be nice. Haven't come across a good service th

Would be great if this were a library that can be integrated rather than an api. An api makes things problematic because it provides the kind of functionality that would break an app if it for some reason isn't working. I don't see how it c

This is great. Readme would be helped by better explaining the pros and cons of using this script! For one, this is faster than loading tons of social scripts. I hate it when a page is loading fb/twitter/etc scripts regardless of whether I

Am I right in thinking that you could easily hook up a folder in dropbox with text files and have these automatically compiled and served up on a website?

It's quite easy to create duplicate styles in the output with mixins - the compiler isn't that smart yet, do placeholders avoid all of that? I haven't seen a lot of comparisons or examples that really drive it home so far. I'm actually work

Based on the blog post I'm not seeing how I can't do that in Less for example. I'm using lessphp and I can build patterns like .media() { // won't compile directly width: 100%; // other cool styling } img { .media; } which would ou
