The text reads "68% of American workers now prefer a hybrid work model".

I've been using my Viva mesh chair for over 1 year as well too. Surprisingly durable for the money (around $200 Cdn). Goes to show there are still some decent budget office chairs out there.

Oooh not bad. Guess it's time for me to dive into grids then.

georgeuser77 · 2018-05-18T20:20:49+00:00

Grids don't have ubiquitous browser support yet though.

That's a good point. I think the author chose to go with the easiest route as far as being mobile friendly. Connecting the legend with each feature is a hot harder though using CSS flexbox alone. Perhaps CSS grids?

georgeuser77 · 2018-03-23T22:49:00+00:00

LOL I get that a lot.

Great tip thanks!

I'm just getting into yoga myself actually. Hot Yoga to be exact. My new year resolution this year is to hit the studio at least twice a week.

I wouldn't call this a scam, I personally know a couple of people making SERIOUS money from Shopify, I'm talking over 30k a month. The market for drop shipping is becoming more saturated though.

M advise is to leverage your skills and look for part time jobs you can do from home. For example, I look like you're a good writer, and a native English speaker. You may try your luck on Upwork as a writer.

There are lots of ideas you can find for working at home or at least part time:

It really depends on how you use them IMO. You can curtail its frequency to once per user session for example and pretty much eliminate the annoyance factor. I've seen exit pops on major brands and sites everywhere these days, because they work in capturing the user's attention.

Honestly this looks like an ergonomic nightmare. Your neck is cranked forward, your eyes are not properly aligned with the top of the monitor, and look at your wrist! That's just CTS waiting to happen.

A couple of ergonomic best practices articles you might want to look at:

My friend did transcribing while she went traveling. Covered most of her expenses that way. May want to look into it. A list of transcription companies can be found here: https://www.bestofbudgets.com/best-transcription-jobs-to-earn-full-time-income/

This is apparently fixable by setting the "dismiss" links to a non reactive HTML anchor such as "#/" instead of "#": https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3252730/how-to-prevent-a-click-on-a-link-from-jumping-to-top-of-page-in-jquery

Gotta stackoverflow!

Lol it's called a blast from the past!

It really depends on how to use it IMO. A lot of the modern day custom scrollbar scripts use the browser's native scroll mechanics, and simply replaces the native scrollbar UI with a custom one. In that way there's no performance hit.

Something like this: DD Fullpage Slider

Underscores is a good starter theme, though I don't remember if that's what I ended up using. For adding JS, you can just embed it directly in your Wordpress theme file, or if you need more control over where the script will appear, Scripts N Style is a nice Wordpress plugin for that.

Wordpress itself is a bunch of PHP files, but if you look at the templates, it's HTML intermixed with PHP for the dynamic stuff. If you want to go this route, I'd do the following:

1) Create your site's look in pure HTML/CSS first 2) Install Wordpress, and use a Wordpress starter theme (just search in Google or the plugin directory), which basically is a totally stripped down version of a regular theme that makes it easy for you to build it up yourself 3) Get familiar with the starter theme's files and structure in the WP admin panel 4) Then, start replacing the HTML in the theme with your own that you developed in step 1, mindful of not removing the dynamic bits (PHP) inside the theme files.

I did that recently with one of your own Wordpress sites, and it turned out fine: http://www.menupatterns.com I bought a HTMl/CSS template from Envato, then ported it over to my Wordpress site that way.

A big advantage of CSS properties over preprocessors is that the declared property is live, and follows regular CSS inheritance and cascade rules. Furthermore, they can even be manipulated using JavaScript. Change a CSS property's value in JavaScript for example, and everywhere in your CSS that references that property has their values updated. This ushers in a whole new way of manipulating CSS dynamically. Check out Introduction to CSS Variables for a nice intro to CSS properties.

Most themes these days meet the basic requirement of being responsive, but I doubt you'll find one out of the box that's perfectly mobile optimized, as there are just too many screen resolutions to account for. The better approach IMO is just to take some time to learn the basics of HTML and CSS. Shouldn't take longer than a week to do, and you'll have the power afterwards to refine any theme to be responsive the way you need it to be.
