I bet if you `s/box-shadow/text-shadow/` a lot more people will find ways to use it.

I took on 6 figure debt to go to school. I'm happily employed and grateful for the life I have. The way I see it: every option available to me coming out of high school had risk. T…

And yet you never considered that — with names like "Wet Asphalt", "Nephritis", and "Asbestos" — this might be the intent? When you click on a color it tells you that "It'll rock!"…

This is a bit pedantic, but I believe what you mean is that she understands that the problem is a few bad apples. The full phrase is "A few bad apples spoil the bunch" — it only ta…

Well, that's the thing: I don't find that interesting, I find it lazy. It's already lazy to write about Facebook, especially in a negative or fearful tone. (How much of that monger…

Poetic and engaging writing, but ultimately dishonest. It relies on the symbol of the hoodie to carry the speech through pathos, and that does take it quite far, but no argument is…

"People who live in Palo Alto who like Sushi who aren't my Grandma " It's the future

Or, that whether or not you happen to like skeuomorphism is a necessary condition for being "the next Steve Jobs". If the most important part of being Steve Jobs is making sure you…

I'm not a huge fan of the current Markdown mark. I'd encourage the creator (dcurtis) to push it, because currently it feels like a first-stage idea — or perhaps, an execution witho…

You sound like you could use a gift.

"Flat design" is, yes. It's just a horrible label for a much broader concept, which is "form follows function", "clarity", "honesty". Skeuomorphism is an easy target because it is …

You heard it here folks, an engineering bug that didn't actually happen is tantamount to rape. Perhaps we should stop referring to them alleged bugs and start calling them rapes. I…

"Fantasy"? That's absurd. Copperplate is a letterpress type. Papyrus, meanwhile, is a joke, but it's meant to look like bush strokes; it's hardly fantastic. I would like to see the…

Nobody said guns were toys. Also, you can't swallow guns.

It reminded me of this comic: http://xkcd.com/927/ Add one more private feed company to the pile.

First of all, whether or not something offends people is rarely the best reason to do something. Secondly, "choice" is a generous way to describe it. It's more that sizes are happe…

Not to make light of your situation with this tangent, but I must say that that is a cool 404 page.

> this all goes into a FB database somewhere, which who knows has access to it, or backups to it. Enjoy being harvested voluntarily. Are you being ironic with a statement like this…

> On another hand, it makes your backend to have exactly one function – to be a simple REST provider. That leads to easier development support and improves the scalability greatly.…

Man, could these guys be riding Facebook any harder? Haters are most assuredly going to hate.

Do you really think it's appropriate to compare a 2-days-to-make chat feature with self-driving vehicles and clothes with computers in them?

/** * Auto-generated, do not edit! */ function add(x, y) { /* test 1 */ if (x == 2 && y == 2) { return 4; } /* test 2 */ if (x == 1 && y == -1) { return 0; } }

Awesome! I love how you kept the SICP quote intact; that is essential.

Changelog: added "hacker mode"

First of all, I am a big fan of your work Mr. Doob. Secondly, no! That's a good idea, I'll have to try it out.
