If this were attempted, I think we'd have a LOT of talk about what truly is an ad and what isn't. I mean, the web banners and billboards we see every day don't do a lot to actually sell products. But your friend telling…
This is both ingenious and hilarious. The best kind of solution, in my opinion.
How many companies has that been true for, though? Apple is the only PC company who made it big as a phone manufacturer. It's a single point on the graph.
As an artist, this is exactly the point that I make when I argue with people who say patents should be abolished. Without any kind of protection, anyone who has a greater means of production/marketing than you will…
You stated this as if it would be a controversial opinion, but I'm not sure I understand why that it would be.
It would be interesting to see what would happen to YouTube if the comments were removed from video / channel pages for a week or a month. I don't see how that would keep people from visiting the site or watching videos…
Whenever I'm writing CSS and I start getting to the point where I question whether or not I might as well be using inline styles, I know I'm doing something wrong and take a step back to evaluate where I went wrong.
I have mixed feelings about that. On the one hand, I fully agree - I hate having all kinds of junky game clients running on my computer when I ought to just be able to have one, Steam, which is obviously doing a decent…
I keep arguing with people about this. I just don't understand the hang-up. I was one of those people who, many years ago and despite my own machine always having an online connection, would complain about these sorts…
It implies that they can't have courage without being drunk, and certainly that's not a very nice thing to say about someone, let alone a huge group of people who obviously don't all fit that stereotype.
Interesting little story. Did your grandfather say anything about how the people out in the wilderness reacted?
Absolutely. It can go a long way to not be petty about it. In these situations, I usually offer a normal bit of criticism, both positive and negative, and then let that be the end of it. Sometimes the client will come…
In my experience, as a graphic designer, who has seen my type of work be outsourced (right in front of me) to some cheapo place overseas, I think it's best to just shut up and let the client do it. Most of the time,…
Or just hold the gun an inch or two away from the screen.
That's a pretty loose definition of the term 'success'. Everyone knowing about it is a big hurdle to get over towards real success, but it's not really success in itself.
Interesting, thanks! I use Windows mostly, but I dabble in Ubuntu every now and then as well, and I might have a spare computer soon, so I though I'd give it a try. Didn't want to bother with it if it wasn't ready for…
The only reason why anyone would defend these practices is that presumably, if the company did not monetize their software in this way, the software couldn't continue to be developed. In Oracle's case, this seems…
It's an accessibility feature. If you don't have the dexterity to hold keys down yourself, you can enable sticky keys and (if I remember correctly) it will make certain keys act as toggles so you don't have to do…
Have you spent much time with Linux TF2? Any idea if it's more or less stable than the Windows / OS X builds?
You know, there's something comforting about going just about anywhere and having, at least, a vague idea of how the layout might be, what things look like, and where to find things. On the other hand though, I agree…
Your opening sentence makes me wonder: why does it have to be an all-out switch? When you need a car for getting places and a truck for moving things, and you can afford both, you don't need to choose between one or the…
There's never going to be an end to the "normal" PC market until people find a way to get work done on all the devices that will purportedly take the PC's place.
I've always assumed the benefit is that you don't have to maintain a separate set of files for each window size... but it seems like, for all intents and purposes, you might as well be if you have to set up special…
Might I ask what browser you're using? Older browsers used to just resize the font inline, and leave other elements alone, but most modern browsers resize everything these days when you use those commands, so sites…
A little late with the reply here, but I think that his thesis is bogus. So-called "retina" displays are not the reason for flat / modern UI designs moving away from skeuomorphism. I would argue it's just a new trend…
