When I was a kid, the only thing I liked about LEGO was the fact that I didn't have to follow the instructions. So I could turn the boring police station into a spaceship. And the fire station into another spaceship. And the indigo tro

Lazyloading is good, I've written a pretty speedy lazyloader myself that also works for CSS background images, but serving up lo-fi thumbnails when many images are displayed at once is something I tend to do regardless. Lazyloading oft

Non-sequitur. It's from Noam Chomsky so it's not surprising, he has a predilection for fallacies. Just because two "bad" people liked something in a certain way does not mean that "good" people must therefore l
