   I agree with this chap. The font is... okay. But I'd like the option for something a little less whimsical. Something boring like Cousine would be nice. Really solid app though, very fine work. First time an app has actually tempted me

   Any reason why it has to be static? I run a Ghost[1] blog from my iPhone using the Ghost admin editor + SSH for tweaking config files/css and SFTP for uploading assets. Alternatively, you can just use Journey[2]--Ghost ported from Node

   This just in: abstractions are slower to process, faster to develop. It's not like this has been true of high-level programming languages for decades... Even jQuery's harmfulness has been discussed for years[1][2] as well as that

   It doesn't highlight anything negative about the internet to me, though I fear for the future of our species. Nonsensical activity on which I won't be wasting any more time than the 2 minutes I spent reading about it.

   I think it's very cheeky to pseudo-paywall an operating system that has reached version 0.3 and is still very temperamental. Granted, the install process was a breeze--I'd expect this from a Ubuntu clone--but once the system is in

    I agree. I have an iMac and a Thinkpad; I classify these as my work computers. I really like OS X. It blends the Unix operating system with the best looks/UI of the OS market. If I could install it (easily/legally) on any hardware

    There are lazy hacks like using hidden fields. Then there are guilty hacks like when you find some way to achieve something with three lines of jQuery, but feel (rightfully) guilty for not achieving it from the code-behind or not being able

    Ubuntu and its derivatives have hardly killed off less user-friendly distributions like Gentoo, Slackware, Arch or even Debian. On a broader scale, Chromebooks may be gaining popularity but they will not be replacing the ultrabook or even t

    First, this is a tragic loss of human life, and shocking that a plane crashed in Europe of all places. Will be interesting to discover the cause. Secondly, I just landed in Lithuania to visit my partner's family. I just spent six hours

    Well is that not the point of nicotine gum and patches? Anyway, it's a bad analogy because apathy regarding privacy is not an addiction. It's just apathy, informed or uninformed. Anybody who was likely to care about privacy but wa

    I've been working with somebody else's .NET web application recently, written entirely in VB.NET. It works just fine and VB hardly seems like a toy. An interesting quirk I discovered, however, was that, with a VB.NET application,
