killahpriest··on Forstall Out; Ive Up
Perhaps it should be read as "visual design and [visual] interaction."
killahpriest··on Show HN: Propeller - Create native mobile apps, just drag and drop
Nothing seems to work in FF these days. =/
killahpriest··on West Bank Buzz: The Quiet Rise of a Palestinian Silicon Valley
Not quite the middle east depicted by the media:

At Asal, 120 software developers work in a large, air-conditioned open plan office fronted by a semi-circular glass wall. Twenty percent of them are women.

killahpriest··on My experience with WPEngine
I highly doubt it's something that simple, the OP had been self hosting a blog network on Linode. There's no way he made that simple of a mistake.
killahpriest··on Apple Said to Acquire Color
Offline music. Duh.
killahpriest··on Apple Said to Acquire Color
Agreed, the quality of iTunes Match is subpar. The music is slow to load, doesn't sync correctly, is difficult to delete, and is really jittery. I've since tried Pandora One, Grooveshark Pro, and Spotify Premium. By far, I've had the best experience with Spotify. (iPhone 4)
killahpriest··on (l)uriel has passed away
Undead.
killahpriest··on Git over FTP
Sorry, off topic but do you still use Cake? Porque?
killahpriest··on On sexism in the tech industry - rebuttal
Just because she didn't write as if her blog were an academic journal doesn't mean she isn't giving a serious topic the treatment it deserves. Her post exists to state that "the whole [.net] article is hyperbolic generalisation."
killahpriest··on Retina Revolution - smaller images with better quality
Great point. I use Fireworks instead, especially for PNGs. Fw let's you use PNG8, and let's you set the way the transparency is rendered (alpha or index). Large PNG files produced by Photoshop's Save for Web dialog are two to three ones the size of the PNGs I generate w Fireworks.
killahpriest··on Living in a Van
And yours?
killahpriest··on Software architecture cheat sheet
What's your solution to the bathroom problem?
killahpriest··on Doppio: A Java Virtual Machine, Compiler and Disassembler in JavaScript
I doubt it, straight Java is much faster than converting Java to Javascript and then executing it, even with JIT.
killahpriest··on Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 sales ban lifted in the US
I'm talking about the 10.1. Agreed, the hardware is nice. The implementation of the OS is terrible, absolutely terrible.
killahpriest··on Steve Wozniak gives jailbreaking the thumbs up, wishes iTunes supported Android
The first two words in the headline are "Steve Wozniak."
killahpriest··on Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 sales ban lifted in the US
The Galaxy Tab was not destroyed by this ban. The Galaxy Tab was destroyed by itself.

If you've ever used a Galaxy Tab, you would know how terrible of a device it is.

killahpriest··on Show HN: Ejecta, A Fast, Open Source JavaScript, Canvas Implementation for iOS
Native iOS doesn't have JIT
killahpriest··on iOS6 breaks long polling
I think he means within a simulator
killahpriest··on 12 (Really) Controversial Programming Opinions
Not an algorithm, but used in many. Pointers.
killahpriest··on Survata (YC S12) replaces paywalls with "surveywalls"
Doesn't Wufoo offer this already?
killahpriest··on Custom Sublime Text Build Systems For Popular Tools And Languages
FYI, instead of creating separate .sh files for builds that need multiple lines, you could just separate them by passing && as a parameter.

E.g., for Cordova iOS projects I use:

   "cmd": ["cordova/debug", "&&", "cordova/emulate"]
