Hawkee

These are quite nice. I was able to import the entire .svg set into icomoon and incorporate a select few into my icon set. The only issue is that they render slightly smaller than my normal icons, so I need to adjust the font size accordingly.

Here is a world I've been running for 2.5 years. Spawn has been moved several times, so the world spans tens of thousands of blocks. If you look carefully you can find large settlements from continent to continent, http://treestop.com:8123

I used to be into affiliate marketing back in the datafeed hey-days on Google. Now in order to succeed in this business you need to come up with something viral and useful. I think this is a very good example. I'm not sure this can compete with something like retailmenot in terms of revenue, but it's certainly an innovation.

While this does offer some historical significance the cost to maintain old web properties can far outweigh the value in keeping them. I run an 18 year old site and lately I've found quite a lot of relief in removing older features. In fact I'm considering removing the very feature that "made" my site many, many years ago. It's certainly a necessary move if you want to stay relevant online. I'm sure there are some folks at Yahoo who are very excited to shut this down and close the book on what is likely a maintenance nightmare.

Silly me. I forget that not everybody lives in the world of development. Considering this it seems every language is experiencing a downturn. To me this looks more like a fault in Google's trend calculation. Maybe it doesn't consider search inflation from year to year.

Great read, but I think it's a few years too late. When you compare how PHP is trending against languages like Python it's following a similar path as perl, https://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=php%2C%20javascript%... - I'm surprised JavaScript isn't having much of an upturn lately.

It's been years since I've visited this site. While it could use a technology update, the content is still quite humorous.

I love the way they do it in Taipei. They have attendants at every station where you hand them your card and cash. 2 seconds later your card is updated. It's actually faster than using the machine as there's never a line.

I used to be into online retail sales before I got fed up with all the money grubbing. It was all about Black Friday and if you weren't ready with a major production by then or at least Cyber Monday you'd miss the boat on a huge influx of potential revenue. If your Black Friday effort went viral you'd be riding the gravy train all holiday season. I get the sense April Fools has become the Black Friday of social media. If your joke goes viral you've got a huge opportunity for viewership and brand awareness. No thank you. My site doesn't celebrate any "holiday".

I wonder if Google has considered supporting Markdown in Gmail yet.

How about Facebook add a "Follow" feature to get 100% of the posts? They don't even need to show the number of followers a page has received. At least then users have the option to see everything a page has to offer. "Likes" no longer have any meaning, so we need something that actually means something.

I agree. They've really diminished the value of a like. Rather than encouraging unliking they're making the content providers pay to make their likes more valuable than the likes of their competitors. It makes business sense for Facebook, but it really destroys the value to the user. I'm tempted to delete my Facebook page, but I still do get a little engagement. We'll see how long that lasts.

I've been developing from a single screen for 17 years and have never desired a second. Part of the reason is I work from a laptop and rarely at a desk. But practically speaking I get a lot of work done on a single screen. My eyes can only focus on a single window at a time, so I have no problem using swipe gestures to quickly jump between tasks. Another advantage is I don't need to twist my head every which way to view different windows. The window I need meets my eyes rather than the other way around. While the article is mainly an opinion and offers little scientific research I do agree with his opinion.

Maybe they're after the comments that require several hours of research and multiple drafts. Anybody who can make a couple comments over a short period of time isn't putting in a whole lot of thought and effort into their comments. I get the feeling they're looking for comments that resemble blog posts rather than the conversational type of comments.

After reading a lot of the discussion about Facebook's Hack I can see why this is necessary. I agree with a lot of the concerns here though. Particularly, commenting on older posts will never elicit an endorsement. I'm also concerned about how many qualified folks will actively endorse comments. This can be quite a job endorsing every good comment on the site. It might require following a comment feed covering the entire site, but who would want to do that? Will there be any sort of reward for endorsing comments? I'd be afraid to endorse the wrong comments and lose my ability to endorse. In any event, I'm very curious to see how this pans out.
