Been using the new 11" for days. No problems with WiFi, but I have noted a few recurring themes about WiFi connectivity.

802.11 b still works pretty well for most people.

802.11 g has better in-house or building range than 802.11 n

802.11 n can be faster. but I haven't notice that being true...ever.

5 Ghz spectrum connections sucks at penetrating walls.

Love the optimism in the farewell.

So can HelloWallet :-)

What I find funny, is how the visualization of scale on a pixel based screen is inherently limiting.

At a certain point, you want to represent today as a scale of everything else...but at certain point, the line for today would definitely be smaller than a single pixel.

Just a thought, obviously this is not practical by any measure.

Unsure if we are impacted, but doubtful.

No need to have a backup design IMO. This is just our marketing site.

Thanks for the info.

We are taking appropriate actions. We have some of the best on our side :-).

They did not do our design.

Have no idea who they are.

To echo other sentiments on this page, how does this work with a one page, ajax application?

The other issue, is that it is all to often that user events trigger the adding, subtracting or refactoring selectors.

How does this handle these scenarios?

I can understand some of the benefit from bringing namespaces to HTML5-like element tags...but I find this to be a step backward rather than forward.

For instance, rather than doing <form:input> it would be great for html to be a bit smarter about nesting and the parent child relationship between the DOM tree.

So instead of <form:input>, I would proposed <form><input:text></form>. Why continue to bloat the code by adding <form:input type="text"> etc...?

Its not difficult at all actually.

Just requires a timeout for the onmouseover event. jQuery's hover intent would work wonders.

Basically show the submenu onmouseover of parent and if no mouseover is detected on the submenu within 400ms => hide the submenu.

It gives the user a slight bit of time to move the mouse to the submenu rather than relying on perfect mouse movements.

This depends on the company and stage it is in.

At HelloWallet, our CTO does indeed do some programming some of the time. Since we are still somewhat a bootstrapped startup, everyone that has the ability to help out does at some point. Is it the overwhelming amount of time? Well, no, but still...

In regard to architectural and developmental goals, that job is the responsibility of our Chief Architect...who also does a very substantial amount of programming as well.

TLDR; Titles are not always one-to-one with roles.
