#2Incredibly well written post about why the Bootstrap 3 grid works, without getting stuck in the technical details of how it works.

#3Wow - I wish I read this a year ago. Would've saved hours of frustration. My #1 gotcha was the issue where the page would allow horizontal scrolling with nothing on the sides. Turns out it was just because I hadn't properly added containers/rows.

#4Nice and helpful diagrams, although IMHO explanation would be much clearer if he used the common CSS terminology, like floats instead of things like "positioned left/right". If I haven't already know how pull-* classes work internally I'm not sure if I'd able to follow through.

#5What is the preferred method for a row that needs to span the entire width of the container? As in, without the 15px margin on the column? Just set the margins to 0px?

#6I have unknowingly used container inside container before and it has acted funky. Now i understand why. I also wondered why not just stuff a row and col class into the same div tag instead of nesting div tags. This article clears it up.
I wanted to explore foundation and uikit but always keep coming back to Bootstrap. It has proven an invaluable item in my toolbox. Its nice to understand the underlying reasons.

Can't you just not use a column? or not use a container at all? I think the second would be preferred way according to his post.

Isn't he saying that you should always use a container?

#9I've been developing stuff based on Bootstrap lately, and it amazes me how this article appears on the first page of many of my related searches - something like a third I would say. I don't know if this is due to the article's excellent content or due to some good referencing.

I've seen his blog before too. He has a lot of really good articles with clear, concise, and extremely useful writing.
Most of his posts get lots of thoughtful comments, and presumably high powered links. I would assume this level of engagement+backlinking helps quite a bit with his search ranking.
