Me! I was a Dvorak user for around 6-8 years, but switched to Colemak mod-DH. I found it to be worth it. Colemak mod-DH is more ergonomic for ortholinear keyboards, less "alternate…

Hey there! Author of devhints.io here... happy to answer any questions you may have.

if you were using something like Angular or React to manage your full page, then by all means run with it! RSJS is an alternative to that that's more suited for "traditional" sites…

Nice work! I've also done a similar thing ( https://github.com/rstacruz/onmount ), and it's really useful in managing behaviors in a page. For those wondering what this is for, I'v…

I think the post title can use some work!

It's a very old P2P file sharing network modeled after Napster. It's main propositions (in my opinion) are its active users who share harder-to-find electronic music, and its discu…

author of Transit here. Velocity actually has a comparison over in its page (top right area) that makes velocity a good choice for animating multiple elements at once.

Typically those are done using configuration files of code-checking tools, such as .jshintrc[1] or .pylintrc. [1]: https://gist.github.com/connor/1597131

Another way to approach this problem is to use travis-ci. Travis already comes with a full stack of ruby/go/node/python working that you can take advantage of to do any arbitrary c…

I'm not sure about that—"Rico Sta. Cruz" isn't some pseudonym I can restyle, it's my actual real name :)

The "placebo progress bar" UI pattern isn't new. For instance, there's no way to monitor the progress of sending an SMS message, yet the iPhone UI displays a progress bar for it. I…

Hi, I'm the author of NProgress. Yes! It's intentional. You can disable this by removing the `cursor: wait` rule in the CSS file.

Good point—let me address that soon.

Hey guys! I built this, let me know if you have any questions.

If you are using jQuery and just need a simple generic event emitter, you may not need this library. var emitter = jQuery({}); emitter.on('ready', function() { alert("Ready!"); });…

I've always thought about this idea. After dissecting my own process, I think Easel.io's "picture only" approach is good. It's very common that I iterate by doing very messy things…

Hey Jeremy! On a totally unrelated note, if I only have 48 hours to spend in New York city, what would you suggest I visit?

That's how jQuery implements it for jQuery.fn.queue, and I think I'll revise it that way too.

Interesting. Any concrete examples of how it can be useful in a real-world project?

"eee_c: Geez ppl, there is no Wireshark SPDY plugin. It wasn't working 6 months ago and it's not working now. Silly HN." https://twitter.com/eee_c/status/167697122823639040 I can't…

I think a simpler way would be to cache the value of `_.template($().html());`.
