Honestly, you can take good photos with a phone. It's about composition and timing. If you are a professional photographer, better than 98% of people in the world, an expensive kit might take you to 99%. As an amateur, the gap between your

I love "getting real" and all the entire philosophy that 37signals brings, but how does this vitriolic comment even make sense? How are you supposed to talk about the people you are designing software for without a generic term? I guess you

Man, I really wish I could use this, I code JS, HTML, and CSS all day, and would love to hack on my own editor, but don't have the time to learn lisp or c. No linux version :(

Sounds really good, but I can't tell what it actually does. I'm assuming you replicated some features of git with your own gui? Let's see a good description of what this is. I'm on my phone and don't want to watch your video that's too big

Yea, I'm a designer, I use chrome- you know why? The inspector is a lot better. The firefox inspector is sure sexy but it is simply not very powerful. Yea, there's firebug, but chrome has a very powerful set of tools built right in. I can a

I guess the question on my mind is- does it benefit rapgenius at all to contribute to any kind of open annotation? As we can see with twitter, if you're going to bet millions of dollars on a content distribution and consumption network, you

Design is mostly about synthesizing many different goals and priorities into a coherent approach. It's pretty easy to take one goal or activity and design a flow for it, but making it work with all the other objectives of a project will tak

Nicely done, I have no idea what it has to do with user tests though. Could one not simply get the exact same functionality by having user send emails, and then viewing them in your inbox ? Don't get it.

Interesting statement- any more concrete examples?

This is really awesome. Usually too busy to keep up on state politics, but I'm going to call Jerry Brown's office later and ask him to please not veto this. Having the police force be able to track your every move for any purpose on a whim

Do you think that the label would change people's behavior in the long term, or would they end up just thinking of it as an upvote?

big words... let's see your work EDIT: sorry that's a bit flippant, but you just sound overly dismissive of a specialized field. Nobody disputes that a good user experience is important. This is why people specialize in it. Now, just taking

I actually had to stay home from work today to take delivery of a tent that UPS would not leave, and would not allow me to pick up from the UPS facility. This sounds like a really awesome idea.

Flashy UI and solid backend code are almost always done by different people. The designer may be writing markup or some JS, but they won't be hacking on end to end encryption. The alternative then, would be to fire the designer and hire ano

Also, being able to add css shadows. You can make shadows in SVG, but they will be different than the css shadows on the rest off the page, and generally a PITA

Wait, can we get a link? This sounds pretty epic, I haven't heard about it before.

OK, so i am going to go out on a limb here and assume that this WILL piss off a portion of your users. That being said, can it work "halfway"? It seems the main benefit of this approach (from a UX standpoint, disregarding security etc.) wou

Thanks for this. Noticed the same phenomenon during my art school days. A lot of students would consistently "brag" about pulling all nighters. Was their work better? No. It may work at the end of a project when you need to get some stuff w
