armageddon | 6 months ago | on: US High school students' scores fall in reading and math

My daughter's math is all on tablet. I don't even know how to help.

I feel like it was better when we had a book. We would read a couple pages on the lesson and then move on to the problems. We could go back and reference earlier topics.

Now they just click through quizzes on some app or a website for extra help.

I can't just play GTA 5 as is?

Plenty of other people will recruit him. The guy has worked as a front-end engineer at Uber and Tesla.

Just fill out the LinkedIn profile - bullet points under the Uber section. Link to GitHub if he has it, then post something on LinkedIn.

How many people have personal portfolio sites that are 2-3 years out of date... even 4-5 discussing how to build a product list in Backbone.js.

armageddon | 12 years ago | on: Show HN: A small (less than 2 kb) CSS framework

The columns should probably break down and resize to 100% for mobile devices - your 420px container.

I'm not sure what will fit in a the one, two, and three width columns... possibly an image. But the wrapping text in each column for the 420px container is going to look a bit off.

Good catch.

Edit any of the H3 elements in any of the gray rows and simulate a tooltip:

Replace it in Firebug with a basic tooltip:

<h3 style="position:relative"> col-1-2 <span style="border:1px solid blue;background:yellow;display:block;position:absolute;width:300px;height:50px;left:0;top:-55px">Hi there</span> </h3>

The tooltips get cut off. :(

armageddon | 13 years ago | on: Things I, as a designer, wish more tech startups knew

The color scheme on that page is so washed out that my eyes did a double take. That's one thing I wish a designer knew about users - not everyone is using a crisp iMac to view a website. I'm on my already washed out PC and their color scheme makes it even worse.
