Home invasion robbery in Police windbreakers

2010-08-06 17:09:44.51704+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Two great examples of bad ideas in one story: In Pleasant Hill California, Police Jacket-Clad Bandits Stage Brazen Home Invasion.

  1. Why no-knock warrants are an extremely bad idea.
  2. Why wireless versions of your website are also a bad idea. I mean, sure, there's a "View classic version" link on the bottom, but that just goes to a full-width no ads version of the site. I'm good if you're going to use a different stylesheet for mobile browsers, but I have yet to see a site that redirects mobile browsers to another URL that gets it right.
