Did anyone know that pressing Ctrl+T in OS X swaps the order of the last two characters you’ve typed? Just discovered it by accident.

There are a lot of tradeoffs that go into product design. When it comes to laptops, there are capabilities (display resolution, processor speed, storage space, battery life, and so on), size and weight, cost, and upgradeability. Apple seems to have gotten the impression that upgradeability is the factor that people care about the least, and I suspect that they’re right.

Just listen to your friends who are not into tech. When their notebooks are getting old and they are starting to complain how slow they become, they are always talking about buying a new notebook and never about upgrading their existing one. Apple is no longer a brand for professionals, they now are a consumer company.

Yesterday the GIF turned 25. This means it is a year younger than me.

The point of this page is to test whether today’s browsers will download stylesheets that are referenced with media queries that would not apply on that browser or device.

With these tests in mind it is currently the best solution to put all your media queries in a single file. Since browsers would download the files anyway it only produces HTTP overhead to include multiple stylesheets for different browsers or devices in a HTML page.

My point here is that creating its own phone would be exactly the opposite of Facebook acquiring Opera. Opera gives Facebook instant access to every single smartphone OS except for Windows Phone, as well as most feature phone OSs. It will end up in people’s pockets pretty quickly, in other words.

This archive contains the source code for the original Prince of Persia game that I wrote on the Apple II, in 6502 assembly language, between 1985-89. The game was first released by Broderbund Software in 1989, and is part of the ongoing Ubisoft game franchise.

Nice.
