Re:Minefold (YC W12) launches mods with more games coming soon on Monday December 03, 2012 @04:23PM (#4867924)
Two things.

In the settings "Link your Minecraft account for 400 coins" is ambiguous. Am I spending coins or getting coins?

Also, look into Feed the Beast, it's a mod pack (like Tekkit) except built and supported by the developers of the mods. Many of whom feel Tekkit used their mods unfairly without their permission.

Re:Poll: What's your favorite static site generator? on Saturday December 01, 2012 @11:41AM (#4858143)
I've used NestaCMS (which I would consider a more dynamic Sinatra app than a static site generator) and my current site is built with Jekyll. A lot of these seem interesting (specifically Middleman), but I really don't have the endurance to try them all out.

So, let's hear it. What makes your favorite better than Jekyll?

I've used NestaCMS and it's great, but I also wouldn't really consider it a static site generator.
Doesn't work with tab.

I'm not saying a Kickstarter type model wouldn't work, but keep in mind that one episode of a show like Game of Thrones* can cost around five million dollars to produce.

Just a heads up, the <title> of your page is still "Bootstrap".
Re:OOCSS + Sass = The best way to CSS on Tuesday October 16, 2012 @04:10PM (#4661594)
The @extend directive, especially with placeholders, is very powerful and allows you to not repeat yourself in compiled CSS as well.

Find (or probably make) a font where all capital letters are just larger lowercase letters.
