Very nice! It'd be cool if this could be turned into a type of flashcard, quiz site where users could upload some sort of config file with questions, answers, images, video and then test their knowledge of the subject.

That's funny because reading this article I thought of that exact same scene. The way that sphere of ice falls into the glass is so satisfying.

Probably because the name for the groups is something like "Illuminati." It's possible he could just be talking about A and B being capitalists and communists though.

PF90 right next to the body armor on the upper level? Unstoppable. Especially if you added proximity mines.

"According to Bob, short copy performs better when there is low perceived risk, low cost, and low commitment. Also, when the customer has an emotional, impulsive, and “want-oriented” motivation. In other words, if you’re looking to write high-impact copy for concert tickets, designer shoes, or mp3 players…keep it short.
Bob states that long copy is the better performer when there is a rational, analytical, need-oriented motivation. Think consumer insurance products or many complex B2B offerings."

This apparently worked. I've only heard about the new iMac from apple.com and until reading this post I had no idea that it wasn't as thin as it appeared. I was so amazed when I saw it.

on: Show HN: A simple lightweight CSS grid, not a bloated framework
The grid adds a base layout which you would then customize by adding classes and ids on top of the default grid classes. You can definitely adjust positions with pixel accuracy. The grid is useful because it helps with responsive web design: everything resizes and repositions when you change your browser size or use a mobile device to view the webpage.

How so?
Also, I don't think it's too crazy to say that the toothbrush has had a larger effect on mankind than The Godfather.
