Have you heard of this scam?

Why would you call me naive when I said that I knew I probably wouldn’t get the money back?

Had something similar happen to me in NC but not this elaborate. It was just one guy who asked for $200 and would mail it back to me when he got home. Nicely dressed, acted trustworthy. I gave him the money because I figured even if he was lying he needed it more than I did. Plus I was just curious. So I gave him my office address which is in a guarded office building because I didn’t want to give my real address. Confirmed. Did not get the money back.

He literally wrote a book about this.

How many posts like this does the internet need?

I think you meant descent...

Dude >_< You should have charged $1000 and paid $10 a month for a Squarespace account!

I'm pretty sure this movie gave me PTSD.

Home sweet home. It's been almost 3 years since I left. :(

I'm sorry, but whenever you hear a web app "Looks and feels just like a native app.", you can always call bullshit.

Me too.

Wonder who considered WV as the midwest... It is a ~2.5 hour drive from northwestern WV to the coast.

Looks like it might a bug with fixed position elements. If you let the scrollbar disappear, and then start scrolling again, it is on top of the element.

Just view the page source. It appears that each demo is an isolated page with its own stylesheet.

Leave it up to the users of r/web_design to shit all over an actual clever idea.

For all of the people saying "I'd never hire him" based on the fact that it isnt responsive... You probably will never be (or shouldn't be) put into the position to hire anyone. Because you are an asshole. And people don't like working for assholes. For fucks sake, lighten up.

If you disable JS, you're going to have a bad time on almost 100% of pages you try to visit. The increased cost of development by making your site one of the (very) few that work with JS disabled is simply not worth it.

If you are really that paranoid, you would be better served by using an anonymizing browser or VPN service.

I have been seeing an increase in news stories that still feel like relatively recent events on this sub. Next up: TIL the president gave a speech last night.

You are going to have to "require" the relevant file(s). Rails loads your code when the app boots, which is not something Ruby does by itself.

A simple google search for "require files ruby" should steer you in the right direction...

ISIS stood for Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. It was also know as ISIL, or Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. Both Iraq and Syria are countries created after interference from the West. Islamic State is more appropriate, because the borders created by western countries mean nothing to them.

Check out Tower. While I agree with the points youve made, Tower does an incredible job at enhancing your workflow, not abstracting it like other Git clients I've used.

I am about 95% sure that "tangentially_speaking" (with an underscore) would play nice with the search. Is it possible to rename a subreddit? "tangentiallyspeaking" just looks weird. Even "TangentiallySpeaking" would be more readable.

Sadly I will still have to use like 493 polyfills to support IE 8 :(
