@FJPackard it sort of gives me an existential crisis. I hate to think that I've wasted my life just making lights arrange themselves into patterns 😮😜

@FJPackard how have I never seen this XKCD comic!? I always relate so much. I suppose that's probably not a good thing 😓

inb4 a co-worker figures out your account and blackmails you for a free microdose.

@dewguzzler I highly doubt that changelogs have much influence over popularity. I'm a dev and I don't even really care about the changelogs.

@goofle this is what I want to be added! If you are looking at a ++ it should scroll to your comment.

Is the joke that the geeks on Silicon Valley are using IE?

But if you didn't have that meeting, would the task have taken longer?

@IWriteCodeYay the jar thing may work but she'd ask why the jars are closed so tight, and there is no way I'll make her tech go squirrelly. That's one of her biggest triggers, although she has been getting better about letting me help her.

@jpuge me and my SO have a great relationship, but when she is mad it is impossible to "just ask" what is wrong and receive an answer until she had cooled off for 30 minutes.

@jamesh I was just kidding, I don't think we're in a simulation, I was just poking fun at how you said you aren't sure if you are "a good programming" when it should be "a good programmer" OR "good at programming"

Well if Elon Musk is correct, then we are all just a good programming.

Continued:

You should also have your project page link come before the about page link in your menu. People care more about the project page than the about page, putting the project page link first will make it easier to reach on mobile (and make it more pronounced on desktop)

And finally, for the love of all things even remotely professional, remove the emoji smiley faces! I don't mind if you crack jokes and write sarcastically, but the smiley faces make you look like a 14 year old texting their friends.

Anyway, like I said, good job! It's a pretty nice site!

Nice looking site, good job! There are a few things I noticed though (I only checked it out on my phone).

First, on the home page the three sections (Codepen, Twitter, GitHub) look like they're flat on the page, which is fine, but when I scrolled down the page and tapped one with my thumb they got a box shadow, I assume that with a mouse that appears on hover. Is that part of material design? It looks stupid in my opinion, especially on mobile.

The rest of this stuff is more of an "editorial" critique.

On your home page your don't have any information and you don't have any call to actions that encourage users to visit the about our projects page. Instead of having a large call to action for your Twitter account, change that to a call to action to visit your about page and remove the Codepen call to action and replace it with a call to action to visit your project page.

That's only about $2.14/gallon. The gas near where I live (in the U.S.) is only about $2.40 right now and I know of plenty of places that are consistently cheaper than here (because I live outside a medium-sized and growing city)

@ericwu91 It's just a font that you install on your computer like any other font. The problem with Notepad++ is that it doesn't support ligatures by default. Here is a thread that shows you how to get it working: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plu...

@FuzzyMyztiq it is definitely weird when first starting to use them, and deleting them can feel odd, but once you get used to them they look so pretty and can help you read code faster (is that a triple equals sign or a double equals sign? With Fira Code it's obvious)

@GeertB ah, I think I can see the bottom line of the 'e' now!

Looks a lot like "DRV" to me. That second letter definitely doesn't look like an E (there is no line horizontally across the bottom and there is a line vertically on the right side) but the last letter definitely looks like a V.

Could we get a confirmation on what it is supposed to be, @GeertB ?

I hope this is a troll...

Anytime I go off to program:

"Where are you going? Trying to be antisocial?"

I was paying for Spotify, but once they bundled YouTube Red with Play Music I figured I'd just switch to Play Music and consider the no ads on YouTube a bonus.

I now use more YouTube than I listen to music (I just listen to YouTube in the background) and I don't ever want to go back to ads.

@LiamClark I think it's more of a reference to the inheritance that the kid receives when the parents die

@pyrotazz you had some relaxed profs if they let you use Comic Sans for your papers!

@CogInTheWheel I don't use Mac's but I could easily tell the right one is newer because it's so much thinner.

I don't know the model though.

If your code does less than it did before then I think your refactoring wrong...

They're probably still using a deprecated version of the language because of legacy code.

@Etrunon no, the law shouldn't discriminate because the party's involved aren't mega corps. You may be able to get away with domain squatting a small company's domain but it isn't any less illegal and they could sue you just the same as a big company.

@Zaphod65 I assume that those hipsters don't have a trademark for any of those names they came up with. In order to be considered domain squatting then the guy who bought them would have to be infringing on their intellectual property for the purpose of extorting money out of them. The part that would be hard to prove is that the guy infringed on any intellectual property.

@darthy fair enough I suppose, technically it is a Mac in 2016 and we are programmers so you know how much we love technicalities :P

@vringar oh! Sorry, it's a saying, usually it's just "I call foul" (I said with anamus because he pointed out that OP was lying as well, so it meant we were both "calling foul")

If you know what a foul is in baseball, it's like that. I called foul on the OP because he lied and his statement should be ignored and redone (like when a batter hits a ball in baseball that gets called foul by the umpire because it went out of the opposing area and he has to redo the hit).
