I venture there all the time via hiking or biking as I live near-by.
1. It gives access to an area a lot of people wouldn't / couldn't adventure to due to location and/or heat during the summer.
2. It's the journey not the destination. The view along the way would be pretty cool.
3. The observatory has very limited parking.
"Better" QA, more testers, more developers, etc. won't catch these types of bugs if there isn't a test scenario which triggers the bug in the first place.
Lots of layout issues on my iphone such as the nagivation close button not centering.
Bootstrap 4 switched to a global font size from 14px to 16px. This seems to be rendering a 12px font for buttons and such on my iphone. Overall element sizes seem small.

Some people can't or do not want to take on the burden of providing breast milk. To make themselves feel better they sometimes demonize the choice of breast milk. Now in their minds they no longer have suffer the consequences of the choice they made for their child.
You could try the JSONView chrome extension.
I remember that game: Javascript hide and go seek
Aaaaand there's a dong in their own screenshot. Brilliant.
When your chain stretches beyond a certain point and does not get replaced it will begin to wear down your gear teeth due to excess friction against the sides. Eventually your gears can become worn enough that they will cause skipping (aka chain slipping off the teeth).
What happens when someone is included in multiple projects? Where does that email go? What happens when a feature spans multiple projects? How do you auto-magically track that as well?
This will be great for people driving and reading a book on their phone with one hand....
You hear about this all the time these days. Is this issue prevalent in all schools now from public to private and low to high socioeconomic status?
How does that work when you want to buy them an expensive item like a bicycle, segway, computer etc. that would take them too long to save up for?
Did Andy step down or finally have an opportunity to peruse his dream?
> For Rubin, manufacturing is a return to the past. According to a 2007 profile, Rubin began as a robot engineer at lens manufacturer Carl Zeiss and had a brief stint at Apple as a manufacturing engineer before devoting his working hours to developing computers instead. However, robotics remained a hobby, with Rubin both building his own and amassing a collection of robots from Japan.
The PS2 continued to sell very well after the PS3 arrived as well.
We recently bought one of those inexpensive spring mattresses from Ikea. Let me just say that the thing was about as comfortable as a sack of slinkies. Would not buy again. And you can't try them out in-store either as they don't have all of their mattresses on display.
So no details on how to detect if this virus is on your computer?
Don't they do burn-in tests on consoles so they know it works before it ships?
I hope it includes a NSFW filter in the parts library. There are things little Johnny should not be able to print.
Facebook just took the known emails/passwords from Adobe and ran them through their own password encryption routine and checked for a match. For matches they reset the passwords on the FB accounts.
The code was for handling zipcodes from a CSV file so we don't really know where the data came from.
1) It should show your wpm as your playing or at least between levels. If it also showed your ranking compared to other players that would provide some cool feedback.
2) I played up to level 20 and got bored. How long is it going to go? What's the reward? What's my score?
3) Changing the scenery as you progress would help aleviate a bit of the boredom. Change the color of the ships. Change the background. Change the song. Add different sounds etc.
4) your banner isn't responsive :)

5) the odd background image makes it look like something is broken on the site
6) This is hacker news. Where is the bot that gives me the high-score!
The 2nd monitor is mentioned because of the new mini bezel. They still have 1920x1200 resolution monitors but they aren't new nor do they have the mini bezel. I'm running three of them.
4 months after our 2nd child was born my wife still wasn't getting enough sleep. Part of that was the child's sleeping pattern and part of it was her not being disciplined with sleep (not taking naps or staying up even later). Of course my telling her "you need more sleep" fell on deaf ears. So I recommended she get a fitbit since it claims to track one's sleep. It was a big reality check to see on her computer in a big red circle that she was only getting on average 4hrs of sleep each day. Just seeing it on the computer meant she could no longer ignore the truth. It's the same as a doctor's prognosis vs. a friends opinion. The former carries a lot more weight. She started getting more sleep the following week.
If someone can create a system that nearly automates the tracking of what you eat you'll make gazillions and help a lot of people along the way. Maybe a bluetooth food scale in conjunction with a tablet that can do "facial recognition" on a plate of food to estimate what I'm eating and the carb/protein/fat/calorie breakdown. Then based on my physical activity for the day and calorie consumption it could recommend I skip desert or have a carrot instead.
I would love a smartwatch that acted as a 2nd display for my phone and controlled things like music and workout apps such as Strava. Then I could get updates on my HR, time, speed, music, location, who's calling me, text messages, etc. without having to dig my phone out. When running I use a waist belt with a water resistant pouch because anything else results in my phone getting drenched in sweat and becoming unusable.
If you spend every waking moment with your child then at what point does the child get to be on their own to explore their own imagination?
Do you throw the laundry aside if your child sees you folding it? Do you stop preparing the family meals because your child just made eye contact? Can't leave the room to answer the front door because I'm engaged in a game of blink with my 1yr old!
