Tweeting on behalf of users is bad

I just got trapped by Prismatic who tweeted a metric ton of messages on my twitter account. I do not want to pick on Prismatic who is probably a great product otherwise. However this is clearly a pattern that we've all seen too many times and this has to stop.

Before anything else, I could have very well done a mistake and hit the wrong buttons/settings. I am not putting the blame on Prismatic, but on this crazy system that allows machines to post on my behalf. No matter what, though, they should obviously prevent me from doing something that dumb, if that's my fault.

Trello CSS Guide

“I perfectly understand our CSS. I never have any issues with cascading rules. I never have to use !important or inline styles. Even though somebody else wrote this bit of CSS, I know exactly how it works and how to extend it. Fixes are easy! I have a hard time breaking our CSS. I know exactly where to put new CSS. We use all of our CSS and it’s pretty small overall. When I delete a template, I know the exact corresponding CSS file and I can delete it all at once. Nothing gets left behind.”

You often hear updog saying stuff like this. Who’s updog? Not much, who is up with you?

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.
