I just spent a few hours looking into doing this, and all I can say is kudos to them for decoding the psd file format =P. None of the big graphics libraries (GD, Image Magick, etc) support writing of layered PSD files (Imagick can read them

The difference between this and various screen shot addons is that it outputs each piece as a photoshop layer, so they can be easily hidden/moved around. If you take a screen shot then load it into photoshop and move around a window, you'll

The main big block of text next to the picture is a jpg, and looks like it has a ton of compression artifacts. tsk tsk! =) Other than that it's an awesome site, definitely the best government agency site I've ever seen.

The vast majority of patents are just novel applications of existing ideas to a specific domain. Apple didn't patent the LCD screen, or the touch screen, or even multi-touch. They (presumably) did, however, patent a multi-touch lcd screen u

You're still covered, but you're paying a cost (missing work, being sick) and so is the insurance provider/govt, that you wouldn't otherwise have paid, and it's the non-vaccinator's fault, and they aren't paying for that damage under your s

Another econonmic (but non game theory) perpective on this is that non-vaccinators are incurring a cost to everyone else (paying for health care, the risk of getting sick via failed vaccinations, gov't costs for health campaigns, etc), thus

Part of the problem with respect to applying this to vaccinations is that vaccines have a low but non-zero chance of failure. If everyone gets vaccinated, and 1% fail (that's just an arbitrary number), it's no big deal because there isn't e

Having only very minimal experience with R, I get the impression that while python is fantastic for programmers, and the tools are probably close to or better than R's (no idea about library support), it's still a programming language, and

Shame that this seems to confuse many-eyes' visualizations. This would be perfect for their time-treemap, if it could pivot the data correctly. Edit: Looks like the numbers were just uploaded in a non-standard way, i'm going to remove the t

The other advice here is excellent, I'd just like to throw out a vote for the editor Textpad ( http://www.textpad.com/ ). It's much lighter than eclipse, but still has tons of features (regular expression search & replace is a favorite)

This is a tip that I've also used to great effect, but I thought that I should point out (if it isn't obvious) that you must make sure the same image always points to the same subdomain (image 1 is always linked to images1.mysite.com) other

I hesitate to wade into this, especially this late to the party, but what the heck... I think a major fallacy of the crowd around here is to see SEO as primarily just code/content optimization. Good HTML, page structure, and tagging is a bi

I think you're defining artificial intelligence too narrowly. If you branch beyond the classic uses (speech, vision, text-classification) to some of the things that have been more recently branded 'Collective Intelligence', there's really a
