The Preferences Toolbar for Firefox has a configurable "Resize" option.

There's also the gadget on the lower-right of the browser window that'll let you resize to whatever size you like :-)

I think it's better to just keep track of whether you've confirmed that the user does in fact receive and read mail at the given address, and remind them to confirm it until it's confirmed. You can even withhold some functionality until it's confirmed.

Knowing that two entries of an alleged email address are the same does not assure your ability to contact somebody.

The article says the projectile is accelerated to Mach 0.75, which is considerably less than 1000 ft/sec. That doesn't seem like a very high-velocity projectile to me. The Abrams main gun has a muzzle velocity of well over 5 times that, for example.

It took me a while to realize that the thing "you" might "do" is not "buy a knit hat with a fake beard".

I do not agree with this, at least not as a universal rule. There are performance considerations with CSS just like there are with JavaScript. If there's an element on a page that's naturally unique and of significance for page styling, using an id is appropriate.

Seriously, doing some cheap simple user testing (see Krug's book on the topic) tells you so much about your site that it can't really be overstated. It's simply amazing how much insight you get into how people interpret the things you've put on the screen. If you've never done it, then odds are that anything you think you know about how people respond to a design is almost certanly wrong.

The stylesheet for that blog makes it look absolutely terrible for me; the font is not anti-aliased so it's painful to read (which, therefore, I didn't).

Just make sure you don't try to parse (X)HTML with regular expressions.

If you buy something like that at Target (Target!) and don't like it, you take it back, packaged or not, and say "This didn't work", and you get your money back with no conversation involved at all.

Don't shop at Best Buy, in other words.

I think Stratfor was a ridiculous target, but honestly they should have known better than to store credit card numbers unencrypted.

Just a minor irrelevant nit, but Erlang sort-of does have macros. The macro system could generously be called "obtuse", but I would definitely characterize it as a real macro system. (The facility is called the "parse transform", and it involves the parser handing over the AST of a module — as an Erlang data structure — to some other Erlang code you supply, and your code returns the modified AST. Or something like that; I'm a dilettante Erlang programmer at best.)

Here is the information you should be looking at. The Etymotic MC5 I bought my kid for Christmas is getting rave reviews and it's ranked highly on that site.

What exactly is that "Proof of Concept" supposed to do? In other words, how does the moving button "game" demonstrate the potential hack?

For Enterprise customers, make sure your rates are about 50x what any reasonable person would expect. Also stress that you've got absolutely no UX skills that might impede the development of a real Enterprise application.

It's pretty sad that I know fairly accurately where on the edge of the set that probably comes from. (It's from pretty far down in the "notch" between the main big "butt" form and the first quasi-circle blob to its left; the best spirals like this are down there, either side of the x axis of course.)

It would be legitimate if it were true, but it's not. So it's not legitimate. That means, in other words, that it's illegitimate.
