    I love YouTube. I use it daily. I have some grief with the interface though. It seems like it doesn't want to be a webpage. So much of it feels custom-made as opposed to browser ba…

    I see, is there an equivalent for robots? Like putting part of the algorithm in to hardware or something? Or is my "algorithm" still "there", I'm just not as aware that I'm followi…

    This reminds me of when i was learning to drive. In the beginning I was only aware of what was immediately in front of the car, and as such, drove very slow and had pay extra atten…

    Another reason for keeping the commented-out-code, could be if reverting to a previous version of the code is more work, than checking in a new version. Or when the old commented-o…

    A great idea. And very well executed! One thing though, for some reason emails from the same list does not group together in my Outlook 2013, like "RE:" and "FW:" mails do. (In oth…

    Is it only on Mac it shows the actual status codes on the network tab? On Windows i have to hover the little icon in the first column, which is really annoying when I'm trying to f…

    That is an excellent idea! Make it cross platform, and able to install missing tools, combine it with speech to text and you would be able to talk to any device regardless of the s…

    A way to do this could be to use a kind of proxy address. That way you would not have to convince every postal service to adopt some new system. The problem with that, of cause, is…

    Its easy when you are just dealing with "text elements" of equal size. But if you are loading images or injecting content in the list elements, the back-button starts to break.

    Why is this so hard that even Google can't get it right? If a page has little to no other content than the content in the list, why is it worth the hassle?

    I went ahead and made this[1]. The implementation is a little different from the way you do it, and it uses jQuery to create the events, but it supports sequences of click events u…

    Nice! Another idea would be to use events in stead of keys in the sequence, something like: "click:#elem1 click:#elem2 keyup:13" That would enable you to make slightly more advance…

    I use the numpad for every number i type on my keyboard. It's much faster and the time/energy i would save by having to move my hand a shorter distance to the mouse, is no where ne…

    I think typescript is such a good idea. And generics is a great addition. The only thing I dislike about TS is the way it handles dependencies. The require/declare/import/export me…

    wow! I kept trying to guess her age at the current moment. I wonder how they did it, three or four generations merged together perhaps.

    I can relate. About three months ago i went from drunk daily to absolutely no alcohol. I too felt like it took a lot longer for me to unwind, but now i use my after-work-momentum t…

    Thank you. From what i have gathered here in the comments, it seems that I need to look into Selenium.

    What was the hassle you had with using Selenium. Only the configuration?

    Haven't used it myself, but i would love to hear from someone who has used this, or something similar. How useful is this kind of testing? I'm thinking that tests would have to be …

    1. We use GA but this is still my main concern. This kind of data seems to sensitive to be hosted by someone else. 2. There seems to be some SQL stuff in there - IO would be a nice…
