I was half expecting to see Dart powering this sucker. Looks like a lot of fun.

Genius. Pure genius. Effective and funny as hell too.

I literally came back here just to say this. I love the concept but it's almost unplayable with the dragging after every shot. Make it follow the cursor!

Just build something. The easiest way to learn is to do. In fact I personally find fixing other people's bugs to be a terrible idea for someone wanting to learn how to build things and learn more about the general field of software developm

Cool idea, but for some reason it counts way too fast in my browser. It cranked out the 5-minute pomodoro in less than a minute. FYI I'm using Chrome on Ubuntu

Nice link-bait.

Hate to buy into linkbaiting and drama, but Curebit does seem to have no ethical boundaries. Once isn't a pattern, as they say, but twice certainly starts to be.

India needs to correct their shit, or US companies need to begin pulling out. The dilemma is that any company worth their commercial salt is not going to give up the business opportunity that is the Indian economy.

I for one still enjoy me some Gnome. Unity tickles my horizontal scrollbar bone and my netbook doesn't like being tickled

I'm not one to rain on anyone's parade, and great artists steal, etc etc, but isn't this a complete ripoff of Pinterest?

Impressive, sir. Too bad no IE support. Basically useless in application without an IE-specific sheet. In which case, why do it in pure CSS at all?

Because it's a press release. Users will be upgraded to the latest version available on their system. What more do you want?

Hey Sonja, I really like the idea, and I've linked to it from multiple sources. I really hope your site takes off like I think it can. I only have one piece of constructive feedback, which I hope you will pay some heed: Men have fragile ego

Despite all of the criticism I'm seeing, I think this is a great idea. All they're doing here is applying a suggestion algorithm to clothes shopping. Not a big leap. Plenty of people buy their clothes online; all this does is tailor (no pun

This is the same model OkCupid uses to notify two users who've given each other high ratings (4 or 5 stars).

His conditions are withering him physically and psychologically. He's not allowed to exercise whatsoever, or to communicate with anyone except on weekends. These conditions may not be direct torture, but they are most definitely a form of i

JavaScript isn't simple enough already? I think libraries are the way to make syntactic sugar, not trying to replace the language itself.

In my experience, photoshop designers (who don't know how to code) often make poor design choices. I've found myself scratching my head more than a few times when trying to convert a mockup to html/css because of a designer who has a poor u

HTML + JavaScript + PhoneGap is a viable solution.

I know exactly what you mean. I recommend learning JavaScript itself very well before you choose a framework. I wrote pure, vanilla JavaScript for everything for almost a year. I wrote a small library of helper functions. After a year or so

Sure, tables are not inherently evil. But like every other HTML element, they have their correct and incorrect uses. The reason you hear so much crap about them is because of very widespread misuse. When used correctly (read: where you need
