> Part of being a grownup is doing whatever the hell you want

No, that's being a child. Being a grown up means not only thinking about yourself

But is it use limited to side projects in your opinion?

I am not saying it needs to be young, Norwegian women, but who would you expect to see cleaning toilets?

There is definetely some truth to the article that the IPad does not really serve any very useful purpose. I have 3 IPads lying around at home, so I just made a "family calendar" web application for IPad and put it up on the wall. The app shows the weather forecast, today's events from the Google family calendar, a notice board, and also serves as light switch for Phillips Hue scenes.

As for books, "Clean code" by Robert Martin is an obvious choice. It covers the fundamentals of good, clean code.

A contractor would actually update their resume pretty frequently, to tailor it to a particular client.

I second that - I have been looking for something like this, but it would be extremenly conventient to be able to upload directly from LR.

Another request - I love the free flow, tiled display of images a la Flickr photostream - any chance that could be an option?

Otherwise, great job! - I was pleasently surprised at the quality of this applications.

Well, you could be forgiven for disliking SAP based on your experiences with their old UI - but UI5 is luckily their attempt to remedy the situation.

It is part of the library - you'll find the Fiori controls under the sap.m (for "mobile") namespace in the API section.

It's the "SplitApp" element that gives you the nice looking, responsive container (I was not able to find a good code sample right away).

There was nothing in your comment that made sense to me at all.

>> Oh my, that "Delphi mentality" in 2013..)

What's "Delphi mentality"?

>> ExtJS, if I remember correctly, is 5 or 6 years old already?

Why do you bring up ExtJS?

>> Is there any info which "startup" they have acquired or in what third-world country it was outsourced?

UI5 was developed in-house by SAP - not sure where it happened, but I think that particular bit of your comment reeks of arrogance and chauvinism

Not so long ago, SAP released a suite of applications under the brand "Fiori" - these apps are responsivea, have a uniform look and feel and are much more pleasing to the eye.

Here is an example from the Demokit: https://openui5.hana.ondemand.com/test-resources/sap/m/demok...

Here is a direct link to documentation and examples of all the controls in the UI library

The subject of the post is not really appropropriate for ridicule, also I don't think this post belongs on HN at all. This is the kind of story people like to read to be able to feel and express indignation and righteousness.

"HSLDA encourages interested members to pray and fast for the family and participate in these other forms of support" - what's this crap doing on HN ? This is an extremely one sided argument from one side in a conflict.

This limitation is obviously put in place to make it easier for the NSA to index your documents

The point of the article seems to be that it is an admirable experiment to be able to give up alcohol for 40 days. If that is indeed an achievement for the author, that seems to suggest that he is physically or socially addicted to alcohol to _some degree_, which can be described as unhealthy. For me giving up meat or wheat would be much worse, because they are a part of my diet. I also enjoy drinking, but alcohol is not part of my diet, and I would be surprised and worried if I had any difficulties staying away from alcohol for 40 days.

Being addicted to pants (or chicken) is not generally considered a problem.

I think the whole premise that it should be hard to go 40 days without alcohol is ridiculous. If not drinking for 40 days is an experiment you're already in a minority with an unhealthy relationship with alcohol.

Ah, lovely, thanks! Note, just replace "command" with "ctrl" for Windows

Anyone know a way to auto-indent lines when working with HTML/Javascript? I feel the "Select text - Reindent" process is cumbersome

Great, thanks for that speedy reply :)

A warning about the Posterous backup to Wordpress import option - it does not support Unicode. In my Norwegian posts, all foreign characters were exported as "??" in the XML. If Posthaven handles Unicode they'll definetely get my money.

This is a great tool for designing web pages, but I'd like to be able to filter on licence types; I'm not so interested in images I cannot use in my web page.

I've been wokring with Angular for several months. John showed me in 3 minutes what "transclusion" is, something the documentation has failed to do even after numerous readings. The format, examples and explanations in these tutorial are perfect - keep'em coming

It's a very nice app, but it does not say anywhere that these are Wordpress themes - is that obvious to everyone?
