    I think you are right. But, I'm not sure. Perhaps it's better to look at "destroying our planet" (or whatever) as a byproduct? Like you said, we didn't decide this in Africa, it's …

    "everyone chooses to live a more basic quieter life against our natural instincts." Serious? That's a huge claim. yet, so many people do live this "quieter" life. I am striving to …

    I agree with the post, and have come to hate PHP less. But the main reason I choose python or ruby (when I have the choice) is because of the syntax. I'm not sure the proper term, …

    This template is using the element incorrectly, see: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/... "The section element is not a generic container element. When a…

    I launched http://www.cookitlocal.com (serving Metro Vancouver only right now) Dec 21st. I've got a couple users, but found it much easier to get people to sign up for a newsletter…

    You should tell viewers that. Talk about what you did for each project, your approach and the technology used; By having a portfolio consisting of just a bunch of images you run th…

    I really like the idea of using email for, well, everything. And I prefer blogging by email (like posterous) and implemented it myself for App Engine ( https://gist.github.com/4629…

    Thanks for spell checking! As for the errors. Oh well. The main site structure is valid and works on the 3 major browsers I tested(Chrome,FF,IE8). The first error is too beneficial…

    Good point, definitely aware. But, I have zero-overhead and am quit fast so $15/page is possible for me. And, of course it would be my intention to deliver equal quality work as th…

    Valid points. If there was interest in this I would offer the choice of Blueprint or 960.gs. As for HTML, I would use my starting template which resembles HTML5-Boilerplate and the…

    I was just thinking of something similar; Would everyone want HTML5 elements or rather not? My thinking right now, is I would build an order form that has a few predefined options.…

    I'm wondering, as I'm not making any money (devoting time to a startup idea) right now, if anyone would be interested in a similar service for the markup? I'm really quite good and…

    lambda never mentions anything about Organic. Organic is not the same as humanely raised meat, nor hormone free. And, IMHO, Organic standards are so varied and in many cases silly …

    Fontspring( http://www.fontspring.com/ ) is a service, very similar to Fontsquirrel(perhaps done by the same people, but can't back that claim up). Fontspring offers @font-face lic…

    I really think neither OS X nor Windows has the upper hand on the other, so I'll offer my top gripe for each. OSX: Window/File Management. I've been told it's the "mac way" to open…

    That's no good. What browser/OS? I'm developing with Chrome/Windows7 and have tested in Firefox. `elm.children("form").bind('submit focusout', function() {` is the event. Thanks fo…

    Ask HN: I Think This is the Best Task App

    For the web, I strongly agree. I like to site back, a few feet away from my monitor, when the font is 12pt or any less I have to lean in. 13-14pt are nice, and there a bunch of sit…
