Re:Apple announces 27-inch 5K Studio Display on Wednesday March 23, 2022 @12:12AM (#30774864)
awkwardly small / awkwardly positioned second display when compared to a regular second display. main display has its own cam. and the external magic trackpad can go front and center on my desk.

the wasted parts get to come out to play when undocked :)

cool- I guess there is some concept of a snapshot/diff to show you the before and after?

Do you have any of those examples pushed up to Github/Bitbucket/etc? Would be cool to see
Re:Lambda@Edge – Preview on Thursday December 01, 2016 @04:32PM (#13083727)
Interesting... looks like something we might want to use to do URL rewriting for an S3-hosted SPA test environment, so that deep links resolve to the base of the SPA without having to use a more "dynamic" host like an EC2 instance running nginx. [edit] ah, nevermind, you have to be using CloudFront too.

That's an awesome project you've got there. Thanks for sharing!

Next they need grooveshark's excellent queuing interface.
in that case... congrats on shipping!
This has noticeably better performance than the python built-in http server in my experience.
I was actually going to request some way to go back to a previous image. I didn't realize I could just use the back button. Glad you pointed that out! @OP: worth adding a back button in the site UI?

A couple of findings:

- This stackoverflow answer has a good back story on this: (TLDR, it's not standard... yet) http://stackoverflow.com/a/3434388/1339100

but it is in this HTML 5.1 draft: http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/browsers.html#n...

- It's slower than document.getElementById, somehow: http://jsperf.com/implicit-dom-element-variables

TIL: DOM elements with IDs are automatically available as properties of window. (ball, paddle, etc.)
Re:Airdrop for Android on Wednesday November 06, 2013 @12:10PM (#6683754)
Looks slick. From the title, I was under the impression that this thing could talk to the native Airdrop app on iOS. Looks like that's not the case? Maybe it'd be more accurate to call it an Airdrop-like app for Android :)

Wow, something like this has been sorely lacking. Thanks!

Nice! Love the simplicity of it all!
Re:Bootup.js - cache and load static files from local storage on Friday November 02, 2012 @12:47PM (#4733510)
Yeah, at least for the caching part, it seems like you should let that be the browser's responsibility, and set up Expires headers/etc appropriately. But what about the offline viewing use case? What are some good solutions to that these days?
Re:Google says no plans for iOS 6 mapping app "yet" on Tuesday September 25, 2012 @12:53PM (#4571338)
We know Google is at least doing a similar stereophotogrammetry technique to dynamically render the world in 3D... they talked about it coming soon to iOS during their presentation in June, "The Next Dimension of Google Maps" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMBJ2Hu0NLw). Though upon rewatching, they might have just been talking about Google Earth.

No sign that they were porting over Navigation to iOS.

There is a subset of music that is not available on the Spotify/Rdio net, for various reasons. If you don't have iTunes Match/Google Music/Amazon Cloud Player with this subset synced into, what do you do when you want to listen to a song now? You might find it on YouTube, or you might find it on Grooveshark.
Some following this thread might find Tarpits interesting if they don't already know about them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarpit_(networking)

Do you guys know of any other techniques that waste the malicious actor's time making it think everything is a-okay?

Re:MacBook Pro Retina Display Analysis on Tuesday June 12, 2012 @10:28AM (#4100571)
I get the impression that at every "resolution", we're really at the native retina resolution, but with UI widgets scaled to different levels, and different present-day resolutions reported to applications. Can anyone with one of these beauties confirm?

The most frictionless zero-to-using I can ever remember having. Amazing work, fellas.
I strongly suggest one of you start using a Windows PC, at the very least to experience your app like many of your customers will- that font doesn't turn out so well with Windows' ClearType.
Re:Check out our startup: Scrumy on Thursday October 30, 2008 @01:04PM (#348854)
Hi jfew-

Just wanted to let you know that the current version of Scrumy Pro has both a product backlog and burndown charts.

Re:Check out our startup: Scrumy on Saturday September 06, 2008 @04:21PM (#297008)
With a very carefully pruned dictionary. Glad you dig it!
Re:Check out our startup: Scrumy on Friday September 05, 2008 @08:58PM (#296464)
We noticed that. Really, really weird bug! I don't know why that is happening yet or we would have fixed it, sorry. Which is a shame, because otherwise Scrumy screams with Chrome's new JS engine.
Re:Check out our startup: Scrumy on Friday September 05, 2008 @08:55PM (#296461)
We've played with the idea of having a burndown chart and other task point-tracking-related things. They might show up as a future Pro feature, or they may show up in the next level of Scrumy.
Re:Check out our startup: Scrumy on Friday September 05, 2008 @08:01PM (#296425)
There is currently no built-in mechanism to manage points. We've seen some people put point values in the task text. In this version, we're trying to keep things really simple.

Re:Rate/Review my startup - mixturtle on Monday July 21, 2008 @07:35PM (#252798)
I just lost my music hard drive to the click of death, so this is really hitting the spot right now.

Two things that would have made my first 5 minutes better: 1. Giant play button 2. Giant playlist link, or playlist always visible in a column, or something.

Have you considered hooking into a service to pull more thorough album information so stuff could be organized a bit better than just a list of songs?

I'm really enjoying this. Thanks.
