Luckily, Pepsi products are much cheaper in my area; 2L bottles regularly go on sale for 3/$5, or even 4/$5. Coke seems to be the super premium brand around here for some reason.
I’m in a senior role working for an SF company, and my permanent address is in the Bay Area. Although I haven’t relocated per se, I work from the EU for months at a time because my partner lives there. It’s occasionally…
You might be thinking of the Kuleshov effect: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuleshov_effect
I think the analogy is that software engineering used to be like carpentry and woodworking, but now it's more like assembling Ikea furniture. Sure, the final result is the same from a purely practical point of view, but…
I think you might be overlooking the fact that bias comes in different forms against different groups. E.g., a hypothetical racist might be comfortable around Asians because he thinks they're subservient and weak,…
I use chopsticks to eat potato chips. I find that it works pretty well for keeping my keyboard grease-free. (And spoons are good for popcorn, btw.)
Heh, when I was a kid I used to draw a lot, and I remember being bothered that I didn't know how to draw a bike, so back then I explicitly memorized the shapes (parallelogram in the back, and another line for the front…
LibSass maintainer here -- it's really great to see another project pick it up, and although we're aware that we still have a fair bit of catching up to do, things like this give us all the more incentive!
Ah, that's because Travis is running all of the "to-do" tests as well. Reorganizing the tests and making Travis happy is ... well, it's on the to-do list.
We do want to support the indented syntax eventually (and I believe it should be possible with a relatively simple pre-processing step), but it's still a low priority compared to reaching feature parity with the…
We did a lot of development during the summer (including a rewrite that was long overdue), so there were a few segfaults back then. The library should be pretty stable now though -- we've embedded it into our SDK and…
Thanks, I'll give it a try and benchmark it. Also, pull requests are welcome for this sort of thing!
Yes, playing catch-up with Ruby Sass has been difficult (the sophistication and subtlety of some of Sass's features are impressive), but we're hoping to make some big leaps by the end of the year!
I once wrote a toy video-player program, and I was able to implement robust, interactive playback controls fairly cleanly by structuring it as a state machine.
There's a proof-of-concept Ruby gem, which will mature as libsass matures. https://github.com/hcatlin/sassc-ruby
Actually, I'm the primary developer of the library (I work with hcatlin). Large Sass projects can take a long time to compile (more than several seconds), so the performance increase should not be dismissed. Also,…
