Probably something to do with the fact that central government has cut budgets for the last 10 years and if putting some banner ads on their website contributes to keeping a library open, it’s hard to say no.

One implementation of SAP I’ve used marked items requiring attention in green, and completed/finished items as yellow/red.

I really wanted this to be about Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Limited rather than Rolls-Royce Holdings plc. A nuclear-powered Rolls-Royce Phantom would be incredibly boss.

Sorry if facts hurt you, but if you look at the source and reference, it’s pretty clear it’s a disaster.

If you like the cases and want an alternative, the Muji ones are probably better in a lot of ways, and Muji have shops.

Hugo is super, but the official docs make it look a lot scarier than it is. It’s a solid static site builder with a lot of power under the hood.

People often forget all of Jobs’ failures and blame Cook for all of Apple’s woes. Jobs let many products stagnate, just the same as Cook.

I have the same problem in Japan. Certain times of the day DDG seems like it’ll never load and I normally switch to Google after about 4 or 5 seconds.

I was a big fan back in the day, but I really don’t want to use jQuery anymore. I now use Bulma because it’s one of the better ones not to force a JavaScript framework on you. You can make it as complex (or as simple) as you like.

I’ve been using Hugo for years and I still can’t find what I’m looking for in the documentation.

I find exactly the same thing. Hugo is perfect for me, it does exactly what I want it to do and has all the features I’ve wanted in a static site builder, but despite having used it for a couple of years, I still cannot find what I’m lookin

If you use Apple’s App Store you’ll notice that they have provided exactly zero markup to help you make your changelogs. I think the only thing it respects is line breaks. And I’m kind of okay with that after seeing this mess.

I know you’re being downvoted because your comment is based on the content not the name, but on the name thing, Netflix actually tried to spin their DVD business to be called ‘Qwikster’, but I think people got angry for some reason(?) so th

Ah of course. Nothing like this happened when Jobs was around ;) (Apart from the iPod, which probably is still more confusing than the iPad names. At one point it was so messed up that in November 2004 they had to rename the “iPod Photo“ t

I’ll save you the bother of reading 966 words: No, it’s not. To me, it’s never been a better time for PHP.

What’s funny about the bottom navigation menu is that’s how iOS was designed from the start. All the first apps (pre-App Store) and the first wave of App Store apps all used it. Then apps started to get busy, so the bottom menu was removed.

React/Vue/etc are all accessible. Almost all web technology that exists is accessible. The trouble is you can’t just do what you want, and you have to test it to ensure it’s accessible. Most companies put it to the bottom of the l

People who are blind should have the same access as everyone else. The web is accessible by design, so all sites that are not accessible are broken. The people that made them broke them. Yes it works for pizza, but American Airlines charge
