Yeah but just because the stock market may have been a poor example, it does not invalidate the rest of his argument. The OP tried to pump and dump, now he's complaining because he got burned. No such thing as easy money.

I've been using this for about 2 years now for my own personal documentation. Now I've switched over to using VS Code and it's Markdown Preview function but if you want to quickly render Markdown as a webpage this is a great

I don't think this will have any impact on the price of tuition. The number of employees who will take advantage of these offerings isn't enough to make any impact for colleges.

I'm having an issue where songs will play but it randomly moves to the next song without finishing the current song. Is anyone else seeing this? Is there a Spotify setting I need to change?
