Ok educate me, because I really don't know (my grandmothers both lived in the US): what's wrong with Western Union or PayPal for this purpose? In many ways this simply moves the problem (overall complication) from a private sector

Honest question: have you ever met someone who purposefully obfuscates code? I've met some shitty programmers, but I don't think I've ever met someone doing it on purpose.

Even the ones who do commit assault and vandalism are deserving of compassion, perhaps even more so.

I'm so confused about what exactly this is. Is it common that parents don't know who is taking care of their child?

Yeah, I think you're right.

Do you think, as a lawyer, it would be helpful for everyone to know a little bit of law? To be able to more effectively navigate day to day things like contracts, leases, understanding of rights etc.?

Please, especially if you are going to write a blog about design, do NOT use an animating logo that sticks with the page as you scroll. It makes it impossible to read the content without being constantly distracted.

Really? Who is going to raise a down round for your seed/series A? And if you're raising an up round, why does it matter if the shares come from you or f&f? Honest questions.

I don't think he means exit in the sense of IPO or sale to PE. I think he means exit for his initial f&f investors. It's not entirely unreasonable to expect a larger seed round or even a series A after 2 years.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding was that Sony licenses the discs to the publishers, so in fact to Sony the discs do cost next to nothing (in which case you'd want to include the price of developing&#x2

I tried your site out, it's pretty cool but some of the backgrounds make it completely unusable. Make it as minimal as possible, people are meant to stare at this for a long time.

Which does not point to grains causing dementia, being poison etc., it points to overeating being really bad for you. Possibly that has to do with carbs, probably not because your body ends up doing pretty similar things with an overabunda

by wdewind 13y ago
That's maybe true but doesn't mean anything. As far as I know there is no reason to suggest grains specifically cause dementia, and as I said the article doesn't do a good job showing that it is specifically grains and not t

This article is bad, and while there are certainly reasons to think cutting wheat out of your diet could be helpful, it's certainly not a slam dunk case. The confidence level here is absurd, and some of the translation to laymen'

Because when you are refactoring your CSS you want things to be coupled correctly. You want all the things that are similar in content to have the same class so that they look the same. If you don't want this your site is probably no

I agree with your post, but I think you only address half of the issue: the other half is the incorrect coupling. In terms of maintainability it does not make sense to have a bunch of random things with a class of "narrow" becaus

As far as grid layouts go, bootstrap's is fine. The main argument against grid layouts is that they incorrectly couple two things: 1) Content and presentation (by having the HTML actually include layout information). 2) Various classe

Press space to start playing, WASD to move around. I had a really hard time playing it though, crashed a lot and didn't always let me walk in every direction. Gave up after 3 minutes.
