<!-- so it turns out that the object tag can act like an iframe 
     but the cool thing is you can nest object tags inside eachother for a fallback path.
    what this means is you can "objectframe" a site.. and if it fails.. (site down, offline, whatever).. it'll use the next one.

    so you can objectframe the live site and fallback to a screenshot.
    or something.

Sass/Less Comparison

In this document I am using Sass's SCSS syntax. You can choose to use the indented syntax in sass, if you prefer it, it has no functional differences from the SCSS syntax.

For Less, I'm using the JavaScript version because this is what they suggest on the website. The ruby version may be different.

Prereq:

apt-get install zsh
apt-get install git-core

Getting zsh to work in ubuntu is weird, since sh does not understand the source command. So, you do this to install zsh

wget https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/raw/master/tools/install.sh -O - | zsh

When JSLint hurts your feelings, hug it out with Doug.

0. There are some situations that are difficult to distinguish mechanically, so I now consider all of those cases problematic, even when they are not obviously wrong.
1. You should be coding for readability and error resistance.
2. The place to express yourself in programming is in the quality of your ideas, and the efficiency of execution. The role of style is the same as in literature. A great writer doesn't express himself by putting the spaces before his commas instead of after, or by putting extra spaces inside his parentheses.
3. Many people think they have good reasons for doing things badly.
4. [The purpose of JSLint is not to make you feel good about inadequate coding standards.](http://tech.groups.y
