Good job. Haven't we been doing this for a few years with CSS3? I have anyway.

Looks very nice. The blue/green text especially. Has a very modern look.

Been thinking about a new theme for my personal site, and this would be the perfect theme. :)

tlongren··on Git Cheet Sheet
I like this. Thanks for sharing! Starred at GH.
tlongren··on Github hosting (git-pages)
*.github.io won't matter. People see it and know it's most likely something legit.
tlongren··on Ask HN: Zend PHP 5.3 Certification Worth It?
I would say no. Unless you really want to work somewhere that makes heavy use of Zend.

This is pretty awesome. Can't wait to show it to my daughter tomorrow. Will probably come home from work to a full disk on my laptop.

Wonder how I missed that. Oh well.
tlongren··on Face to GIF is Amazing
I've already got an entire folder of gif's. Just totally stupid crap.

My 3 year old is going to love this. I fully expect to come home from work tomorrow to a full hard laptop drive.

tlongren··on PHP.net Redesign
Click "Step into the future! Click here to switch to the beta php.net site" at the top to see the new design.

It's a huge improvement visually.

They're not good.

It won't arrive.
tlongren··on Poll: Would it be OK for the NSA to spy if the code was publicly available?
Doesn't matter. It's always been known that the NSA is a spy agency. Thats what they do. However, they shouldn't be doing it in the manner that they are.
tlongren··on Why I Just Closed My LinkedIn Account
Congrats man. LinkedIn isn't all that useful to anyone but recruiters anyway. I closed mine long ago because I simply never used it.
tlongren··on Poll: Which RSS reader have you switched to?
Fever is very nice. There's even some code on GitHub to import your starred google reader items into Fever.

https://github.com/darkimmortal/fever-google-starred-importe...

I needed a way to bring my starred items in. I had too much great stuff starred to not retain access to it.

tlongren··on Digg Reader Update
fever. It's what I switched to.

tlongren··on Ask HN: Favorite mailing lists, IRC channels
Cool! I've been searching for something similar to this.
tlongren··on SolusVM 1.13.03 Vulnerabilities
This is not surprising at all. In their client API for checking server status, they can't even report memory usage correctly.

It's been a bug in their API for a very long time, with multiple requests for a fix. I made a new request for a fix about 2 months ago and they're still "working on it". Not difficult to look at the correct line in /proc/meminfo.

tlongren··on AppFog Now Part of Savvis Cloud
Yes. Their previous CEO, Joseph Nacchio, was in prison for not cooperating. Heard he's been moved to a halfway house? Not sure on that though.
tlongren··on AppFog Now Part of Savvis Cloud
That's too bad. CenturyLink is a horrible company to deal with. Heroku provides enough functionality for what I need, thankfully.
tlongren··on ASK: is there a github for 3d objects?
Not sure exactly what you're looking for. But is STL file viewing on GitHub relevant? https://github.com/blog/1465-stl-file-viewing
tlongren··on Ask HN: Java and PHP rant
Haters gon hate. It's what we do.
tlongren··on Show HN: Get a Server Instantly
Cool. But the flipping/rotating card with the info on it doesn't show very nicely in Chromium on Xubuntu 13.04.

It's transparent, so you can see the text sitting "behind" the front-facing text.

tlongren··on Ask HN: NSA False Positives (Screwing with the NSA)
I don't hope to achieve anything. But I'm sure there's folks out there who would have some motive to do so.
