Couldn't it also be an explanation after something has happened?

Just in response to the touch/typing lag - You can remedy this by resetting your settings.

It's a pita, but it helped me in this situation.

Plus renting is basically flushing your money away each money opposed to building equity in something over time.
Re:Stripe: Redesign status page as part of job application on Thursday August 29, 2013 @01:55PM (#6297355)
Exactly. Sending a resume is cheap -- sending a design takes some time.

This reminds me of the "I will not do your tech interview." post. [1]

There's a good chance if you're applying you're either a. unemployed, looking for a job, or b. you really want to work at stripe.

If you're passionate about what you do, you're going to enjoy designing anyways, so what better way to make you stand out than doing something that benefits the company you're applying for -- working on something you'd actually be working on.

Anyone can copy designs from dribbble to make themselves look like an amazing designer.

It's not like they're going to take your design, implement it and never reply to your email.

I think an easier solution would be to just hide reviews that are submitted from a device that's running a beta version of the OS.

That way (legit) customers can still submit feedback, but it doesn't affect the app on the appstore.

Re:Psd.rb on Tuesday July 30, 2013 @04:26PM (#6129792)
That's true.

Ideally, you'd have to spend some time making sure your .psd is formatted properly instead of just 100 layers names Layer X.

Re:Psd.rb on Tuesday July 30, 2013 @03:48PM (#6129541)
I feel like this could be used to automatically convert a simple .psd web layout to non-shitty HTML and CSS.
Re:Foundation 4.3: Paving the Road to 5 on Thursday July 18, 2013 @08:47PM (#6067606)
It doesn't have the same "install and scaffold quickly" effect that Foundation offers, but I've recently been using Bourbon Lite.

It's along the same lines as what you suggested above.

Re:Tools to get started with responsive web design on Tuesday July 16, 2013 @09:41AM (#6051768)
There is going to be some aspects of the design that can't be pixel perfect when it comes to a fully responsive site. This is because of the use of % based width to make the grid fluid.

If you're looking for pixel-perfect versions you're best off working with breakpoints and keeping the design rigid up until each breakpoint.

It's more work, but if you really want/need pixel-perfection then it's really the only way to go.

Re:Show HN: I made a job board for startups in NYC on Monday June 03, 2013 @10:36AM (#5813495)
There seem to be a few broken styles and I'd suggest you get rid of the inline js, but otherwise it seems to be running fine.

Just needs a coat of paint.

Re:Pure: a set of small, responsive CSS modules on Tuesday May 28, 2013 @09:52AM (#5780016)
It just seems a tad unnecessary.

Why not use something like "2-cols/2-columns/pure-2"?

Re:Pure: a set of small, responsive CSS modules on Tuesday May 28, 2013 @09:45AM (#5779977)
Looks great, one thing that irks me is the grid classes.

Not a huge fan of "pure-u-1-3"

Re:Principles of Flat Design on Tuesday May 28, 2013 @09:43AM (#5779963)
I think by now it's safe to assume that the button under the form would be the clickable element.
Re:Xbox, A New Generation Revealed (livesteam) on Tuesday May 21, 2013 @01:52PM (#5745401)
I think they're saving most of the game related content for E3, which is soon(ish).
I don't really understand why these frameworks need themes.

IMO, they should be used as a hidden framework instead of driving the visuals. Essentially, they should just be a grid system.

You have to install either library as well:

For Google Charts, use:

<%= javascript_include_tag "//www.google.com/jsapi", "chartkick" %> If you prefer Highcharts, use:

<%= javascript_include_tag "path/to/highcharts.js", "chartkick" %>

Re:Show HN: Resumonk – a year after it was launched here on Wednesday May 01, 2013 @12:59PM (#5639163)
Looks good but the stock Flat UI icons don't really fit in with the rest of the design.

It seems like the two major "styles" don't work well together.

You can click the title on the video to go right to youtube. You can view fullscreen there.

~ $1500 seems a bit steep for a domain name, no?
Re:Em Baseline Generator on Tuesday April 02, 2013 @12:11PM (#5480167)
Seems easy enough to just edit the generated code to add your classes.

Also, shouldn't you be using headlines when headlines should be used instead of classes? Semantics and everything.

Re:The Redhat of Drupal on Wednesday March 13, 2013 @03:14PM (#5370472)
I'm not really sure how many plugins you're running, or even what type of things you're trying to do with your themes, but I work at a web dev company where WordPress is used for 95% of our clients and I haven't run into any issues using the auto updater in years.
Re:Swipe 2 is now live on Monday March 11, 2013 @01:38PM (#5358307)
While it is just a demo, it's unusable unless you're on a mobile device.

If you're on a desktop, you're basically just sitting there watching it autoplay.

I wish I was able to downvote this into oblivion.

True, I think it was my stupidity. Sorry about that.
