Rounded Corner Rendering in newer Browsers(west-wind.com)

submitted by rstrahlrstrahl(7226) 2 years, 10 months ago

submitted by justin_etheredgejustin_etheredge(8539) 3 years, 10 months ago

Stop pretending that you can guess how a 100k line application is going to fail, and stop putting in tons of code to account for failures that you don't know are going to happen. How come we often ignore YAGNI in the face of writing robust software? read more...
