Yes, but not easily seen unless you have a tool like FireBug to see. It works by setting a unique cache tag (etag as in screenshot) for each user of a resource such as HTML, JPG, GIF, etc files. The later requests can then be extrapolated o

In a way, it does make sense. Once software/game is made, the developers are no longer needed. So it gives a little incentive to force the completion of software. This should give an idea that the investors care more of money. Which is quit

I dislike quizs and exams because I view them as memorisation tests. I do badly while those people who can memorise everything so well, don't understand what they're doing. Do you allow books or computers? I'd think the internet would make

My idea is beyond this, but the basic gist is to create several stages. 'Alpha' 'Beta' 'Live' '10' '#'. So if a person is very interested or wants the finished product, etc, then there's a variety of matching options. However it'd really de
