Shameless self-plug, but I love this greasemonkey script I built and still use it across 3 machines. Pretty much you enter your tags/watchwords and it does a string match. It's very simple (I taught myself jQuery to write it) but I can't li

$1 million will buy you a house, but not anywhere close to the city. You'll be stuck out at Craigeburn, Noble Park etc. With Australia's population boom, the surge will be in apartments, units and townhouses. "Houses" will become a commodit

Today: $1 million will buy you an overwhelmingly average house in an overwhelmingly white bread, middle-class suburb in Melbourne or Sydney. 15 years from now, that million dollars isn't going to mean much at all. Live to be happy now, beca

Investigate "aggressive degradation". It revolves around the principle of not stressing over delivering the same exact functionality - but delivering something that DOES work in its simplest forms. A GIF when a PNG would look nicer. Squared

Holy excessive caps, Batman! Apart from that, I think a lot of those options should be either set to N/A automatically, or some kind of low priority or second round testing. It's comprehensive, I'll give it that; but it's just too visually

Don't worry, you can still use the pay-phones to organise your drug deals. What a terrible thing to take issue with.

Pretty good really. I havn't dabbled with complex animation, but I was building a Visio style workflow editor that worked in IE6, IE7, IE8, Chrome, Safari + Firefox. It has drag + drop and what I believe to be critically missing, the arrow(

I guess a lot of the stigma is associated with the cracks, as well as the warez websites themselves that would constantly infect computers.

"Their content is incredible" is true for the one article they pay someone to write, versus the 10 or so lists they publish alongside it.

This kind of reminds me of the Optimus keyboard by Art Lebedev, but not in the vapour-ware sense. More in the way that any time they post a new screenshot or video I get overly excited, regardless of when they finally have a non-beta releas

Well if they're using RaphaelJS or at least duplicating some of its functionality, then it should default back to VML for IE. I have no idea what VML is really capable of though.

Dare I ask if this will work in any version of IE?

One of the things that has been missing from RaphaelJS that annoyed me was the arrow function. They even mention it in their documentation, but as an empty function. I finally got my version working so I will hopefully post it on HN later t

Mozilla has similar functionality bundled with Jetpack. I know it's not the same, but worth mentioning.

Reliance upon lists? Reliance upon how-tos? Reliance upon tutorials? Is it just me or did Smashing Magazine take a long hard look at its archives?

'Groceries' could have easily stopped at the third iteration. Sure, it wouldn't have looked as unique or easily identifiable as a taptaptap product, but it would have looked simple and clean. Easy to scan, easy to read in a supermarket whil

Shameless self plug of something that I released yesterday that is REALLY relevant to your needs: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1227712 Overall I think that ThemeRoller is good at making themes for "coloured" designs like Mint (soft

As much as this isn't my problem, there are fixes that jQuery UI could implement such as native dblclick and special jQuery events such as triple click that could be used to stop text selection.

I wish I could take responisibility for this. Sofa designed Aristo, 280North gave me permission to use the name, and I used a couple of icons by Pinvoke (possibly my favourite icon set of all time). I did take some license with it here and

Haha, that's unfortunate mate. Maybe you can contact me and we can work together on a proper release that works with all the controls.

Point taken, but they still have to invest a lot of man hours in slicing and building the theme to work in most popular browsers.

It still (like most of the widgets) only goes 90% of the way and lacks things like gmail/facebook-style multiple items by comma separation. The worst thing is that the properties exist (multiple: true) but are not utilised as yet. Instead w

This is the most frustrating website I have visited in the last year. If I click on a link (or anywhere) I don't want to have it obscured by a fluttering bird!
