While learning jQuery and figuring out how to retrieve elements of the DOM, I googled "how to get head".
Get the TLD for python.org wrong and it's less than work appropriate.

Seems nobody cared at the time. Never heard of a community springing up around it, and you can hardly find it now. Got it in my archives somewhere.

Releasing a project as open source is associated with a lot of work and responsibility. People get quite entitled over open source projects and get quite upset when developers don't do what they want. I can see why he's unwilling to undergo all that stress and pressure if he feels it doesn't benefit him.
He can do what I do with my own personal projects: if you install something I wrote, you get the source code whether you want it or not. Setup.exe basically dumps a copy of my development directory into the specified installation folder. That way, if I get hit by a bus, it's fine, The Source Is Out There. If someone wants to send a bug fix or improvement, great, thanks, I'll be glad to take a look. Otherwise, don't b…
This is really cool, can you share a bit about how you do this? Are you using a makefile and putting a gzip as an embed into the setup? Is this a function of the installer you're using? Thanks for any insight.

Yikes, okay. I trust Justin Frankel, I don't know you, previous team or not.. The world can go on using Winamp 2.x forever and be just fine, its GRAS. If you're bringing something that isn't that, previous dev history or not, you're going to have to differentiate yourself from the folks who are also putting out winamp-alikes. I'm not trying to be a jerk, that's just the reality. Knowing what the code I'm running is d…
fwiw dro’s been around a long time and i would be inclined to trust them :)

Winamp 2 was generally preferred. If I recall correctly, it skipped version 4 not because v2 + v3 = v5 but because nobody would want to download a Winamp 4 skin. Not kidding.
> not because v2 + v3 = v5 but because nobody would want to download a Winamp 4 skin I wish the people who named Gimp image editor were this thoughtful! Searching for image masking info has caught me out multiple times :/

Not quite an answer, but I used to have my whole library loaded up in one list and could search any part of it, including the path, using the "j" key to instantly play basically any song in it from the keyboard. It was so good that I literally put an old desktop computer in the trunk of my car in 2000 (with eggshell foam bungee-corded around the hard drives for shock absorption) and ran a long keyboard wire to the dr…
please tell me it had some way of playing the "llama's ass" mp3 when you booted the computer/car, or at least a hotkey on the keyboard

There is another thread going on about bringing back web 1, but here is something I have been advocating for a while, make 2 different new web profiles, along the lines of: 1.) A subset of modern HTML / CSS, custom Javascript. Remove anything that isn't needed and especially anything that affects rendering negatively for no good reason. 1.1.) Possibly: Provide versioned, vendor neutral versions of js to allow for aut…
Sounds good, but I'd move for the total removal and banning of all JS and other scripting. Otherwise, what's the point?

Why does VLC Player getting used for porn and videos eliminate it? You mean you want to watch porn and listen to music at the same time and dont want to launch multiple instances?
Perhaps they are worried about mixing the content up? Like if they have some friends over and want to play some music...
