@isofarro_public: I'll show you what I mean on IRC tomorrow. @intranation: No, horizontal scrollbars are crap. Hence max-width, et al.

mikewest We're grabbing some Italian food, as our leftovers aren't going to cut it for the three of us.
mikewest @isofarro_public: I'm not sure I agree. Safari doesn't do page zoom; to maintain layout while increasing font-size requires em's.
mikewest @cackhanded: I'm of two minds about it. *shrug* I'm playing with it for now, with the IE6 max-width hacks @codepo8 doesn't like. :)
mikewest Painstaking removal of px measurements from a CSS file is annoying. I'm not actually sure if elasticity is worth the time.
mikewest @SeanW: Indeed.
mikewest @ginader: Looking forward to listening. You guys chat about anything particularly cool?
mikewest @Carlo: Nice. It's a classic. :) Michael Bay is such a joke of a director. It's hard to parody him without thinking "He might _do_ this!"
mikewest Trying to get some work done early on a Sunday morning, before my cousin shows up to crash here for the next two days.
mikewest Why can't same-sized (by pixel) fonts simply render _the same_ across browsers? I'm looking at _you_, 14px Georgia in FF3/Webkit!
mikewest @Carlo: Elisabeth and I ended up watching Hancock at Cinema last night. It's good popcorn-eating entertainment. You'll enjoy it. :)
mikewest Done with the internets for the evening... Reading/relaxing. Then sleep.
mikewest @ginader: Welcome to Deutschland! Come visit Munich, it's nice. Except for the rain, of which there is bunches.
mikewest Heading home in the rain. Happily, I'll be underground most of the time.
mikewest @intranation: You have no idea what a messy codebase looks like. ... Wait. You were here at Y! for a while, of course you do.
mikewest @flickertracks: Practicality is overrated. :)
mikewest Code Freeze! Building packages, publishing changes, etc. What a fun day.
mikewest Just had a yummy (and fast) Doener for lunch. This is becoming a very typical meal for me... :-)
mikewest Going over an applicant's code one more time before chatting with her this afternoon.
mikewest @ginader: I'm jealous... sounds like a great concert! Enjoy!
