   What browser are you using? It looks great to me here in Chrome and Safari.

   This post would be so much more useful if it had a list of the questions asked, what the wrong answers given were, and an explanation of why the answers were wrong, along with links to the information needed to come up with the right answer

   It'd be hard to have worked with Linux for over 20 years at this point since the first public Linux release happened just under 20 years ago (September 1991). And even in the post, there are more factual errors... Ctrl+D doesn't ask a progr

   Instruments is capable of so many amazing things and yet it seems like practically nobody knows about it.

   I would love to know how much money Sony threw at securing the PS3, considering how they made a similar error.

   I think you seriously overestimate the competence of the “professionals” doing the typesetting on ebooks. Most of the ones I've paid for are shockingly awful. This includes ebooks like the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings, Ender's Game, or

   For coding and SSH, you should try using Menlo at 9pt or 10pt with AA turned off.

    Or maybe Goldman Sachs built a bunch of stuff internally on top of open-source code.

    I'm withholding my final judgment until I can play with one in person, but honestly, I kind of see the original poster's point. If you have a Nexus One, what do you get by upgrading to the S? The Nexus One already has the 800×480 screen, th

    This entire article reads like a tutorial about how to make poor decisions. I mean, if I want to eat a cake, and I know how to make a cake, I'm not going to pull up a recipe for brownies and try to make a cake out of them. This guy made som

    I've updated the page so that it works properly in IE9, at least (all I had to do was add the <!doctype html> header at the beginning, and that seems to be good practice anyway, so I have no issue with it). I have no way to test IE7

    Assault and battery are not some vague ideas that you can argue the meanings of. They have clear legal definitions - if you threaten someone and make physical contact with them without their permission, you are guilty of assault and battery

    It's definitely a CPU hog. I'm not really an expert at debugging javascript performance issues, but if anybody has some suggestions on how to make it more efficient, I'm all ears.

    This was just a quick one-off hack that I did for fun. I had no idea how many people would find it interesting. If anybody does want to fix the code so that it loads properly in IE (and doesn't break any other browsers) I'm more than willin

    I'm the guy who ported this to processing.js, and no, it isn't that simple. I tried just adding that one line and it didn't actually work at the time. It turns out it's slightly more involved, and as I was just trying to make this a quick p

    I really love Mark Simonson's fonts. Anonymous Pro is a great fixed-width font, and I really like Proxima Nova and Mostra Nuova. I'd much rather give him my money than Adobe.

    Those aren't the same thing at all. You can't write C in visual basic. The guy you were responding to was comparing what it would take to get your application working with Heroku vs. what it would take to set up your own server providing so

    You've got the right idea but the wrong influence. Jobs doesn't do the actual industrial design - he knows what he likes, and he has a great eye for it (or so I hear) but the man behind Apple's design aesthetic is Jonathan Ive. And he did d
