    A good number of people fall asleep while driving anyways. This guy was lucky that his car didn't crash when it happened...

    The title seems misleading. People with marijuana in their bloodstream != stoned drivers. Marijuana use is detectable for a long time past the point of impairment and the data only…

    Not sure if it makes any difference, but I tend to Google syntax rather than solutions... I often know "what" I want to do, I just can't remember the "how".

    True, except it was distracting to the point that I couldn't finish reading the article...

    If you have an ActionScript background, I highly recommend Easel JS. http://www.createjs.com/easeljs

    I think that's the point of material design. It's the design equivalent of egoless programming. You should not be able to tell who wrote/designed something if it is done properly.

    I would argue that crappy developers are more productive "initially" but in the longer term may end up with unmanageable code bases that will slow them down. That being said, one c…
