Or, if you want to go a level deeper, go to the video poster's own site: http://www.ztresearch.com/

While odd for what has historically been a PHP shop, .aspx shouldn't be too surprising: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21458486/

Re: Olympic paint - towards the end of the article, they refer to a grandfather clause for names established before 1978.

You're confusing Apple with developers of iOS applications. Apple may not have stopped it in the past, but the developers never asked either.

If you felt so inclined, you could add them back in for your own use since the code is kept on GitHub: https://github.com/newsyc/newsyc

5by5 sponsorship costs can be seen on this page: http://5by5.tv/advertise

There doesn't seem to be a pricelist for a particular show's sponsorship though.

Current version of this article seems to be missing a stylesheet and some images.

Here it is ran through Instapaper's Text bookmarklet: http://www.instapaper.com/text?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.contrast.i...

It also appears that Swiffy, the SWF-to-HTML converter (http://www.google.com/doubleclick/studio/swiffy/) was used for helping to generate some of those animations.

You might want to rename this so people don't confuse it for Adobe's JavaScript library (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html)

For those who tried this in Chrome, like me, it won't work :(

Try it in Firefox instead.

This is a pretty neat idea, well executed - it took me a minute to realize what was happening when nothing displayed for a few seconds.

Sidenote: instead of shrinking the list to the left (it becomes a little harder to read as languages are added), you could wrap them more fluidly with Isotope (http://isotope.metafizzy.co).

This looks remarkably similar to Polyglot, which was released over a year ago: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1669162

It's interesting how many of the comments here are similar to the ones there.

Over the years, the one thing you can almost always count on from Microsoft when it comes to product announcements is their large and mostly useless chart of which version is going to have which features.

While minor, the name of the platform itself, Obtuse, is an antonym of Subtle. If that isn't a shot at Dustin, what is?

Looks like it's the platform/network that Dustin Curtis has been using for his own blog (http://dcurt.is) and is finally opening up to other authors, albeit slowly.

Woops, my fault. I figured HN would have stopped a dupe, but the URLs were ever-so-different.

http://jsonlint.com also does a great job of not only pretty-printing (valid) JSON, but also checking it for any errors.

I'm not sure what color scheme you'd like to go with, but as a colorblind user, the green and yellow colors that you're currently using are very similar to me.

Perhaps you could do a colorblind mode that uses red, blue, and yellow (out of simplicity's sake) to indicate availability? It'd make your service way more useful for me :)

Google has also dropped support for IE7 as of August this year (for apps at least): http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2011/06/our-plans-to-support-m...

Who's to say that the user posted the link on their own?

While I'm sure it's possible that the plethora of other math videos and exercises on the site do provide the background that CS students would need, it'd be nice if perhaps they were cross-categorized so that people could know which topics go best with each other.

This is exactly what I did. Then it's as easy as dragging the song and/or album straight to it. That's it.

Marco also has a tweet referencing Dan Cederholm being associated with the icon (@simplebits)

Edit: Dan's post here: http://simplebits.com/notebook/2011/10/17/instapaper4/

The article only mentions the library in passing as a potential session. It's not taking a shot at Alice.js, it's taking a shot at RIM's failures with the PlayBook and current mobile devices.

It's the JavaScript developer in me peeking out :x

Attacking www.nyse.com !== 'erasing' the NYSE

Did the blog this is posted on steal their design from Under Consideration?

Example: http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/critter_... (Pay attention to both the post content and the Before/After images)

Unrelated, but in some of the more recent builds of Chrome, you can have Chrome warn you whenever you hit Cmd+Q to then have you hold the shortcut down to confirm quitting. It's saved me loads of frustration on more than a few occasions.

Here's a summary of CloudApp's two account types: http://blog.getcloudapp.com/the-next-level

CloudApp's approach to this is slightly different. It's more than just sharing files; they have an image viewer as well as a music player, with the ability to customize your own pages via the viso project (https://github.com/cloudapp/viso). You also don't need to know your recipients ahead of time. Just upload your file/bookmark, and share with anyone, anywhere.

It doesn't look as though Kicksend is useful for URL-shortening as well, which CloudApp makes dead simple.

I am curious, though, to see if/how the guys at CloudApp respond to this...
