   I was 100% with you until the needless personal attack in your last sentence.

   Fair enough. You could have said that in the first place, but whatever.

   I'm completely okay with irony-ish things. But smugly calling something ironic when there actually isn't anything resembling irony there is just odd.

   I actually missed the Hamlet reference to be honest. Now it seems much less obnoxious. Thanks for clearing that up. My apologies to the parent for that portion of my comment.

   I get on a few times a day for a few minutes at a time, but I'll stay on for 20-30 minutes if I'm having a good chat with someone. I've found that most of my friends prefer to text. If I don't see anything new in my feed, I don't stick arou

   Like rainnnnnn on your wedding day? Because there's no actual irony there.

   I thought the sexual lead in to the main point of the article was rather silly myself, we don't disagree there. However, that's no reason to call the author insecure.

   Facebook tries to monetize the difficulty of letting relationships go. I realize this, so I don't accept friend requests from former friends/acquaintances. You're only my friend on Facebook if we're actually friends. I have 15 Facebook fr

   Downvoted for A) Use of antiquated language solely for the sake of making yourself seem smarter. B) A needless insult to the author.

    I haven't had many problems running games on Windows Vista/7, but the times I did have problems were extremely time consuming. I'm talking in the range of 10+ hours. Bioshock 2, for example, was plagued with the Games for Windows Live, whic

    Sounds like you'd have a hard time changing your price in the event a 99designs client becomes loyal to your work. > Therefore I would reframe 99designs as a way for designers to get clients without having to find cold-leads while at th

    No, I didn't, but thanks! That's very useful. Additionally, google + the help command led me to :help text-objects, which describes a lot more goodies similar to 'ip'.

    I agree completely. Visually highlighting a paragraph that went a bit too wide and cleaning it up with 'gq' makes me a happy camper.

    Needless snark like this completely lowers the quality of discussion. Just make your (agreeable!) point and move on.

    It was a lame joke, but the amount of "whoosh" in this thread is a bit mind boggling.

    Support for devices is generally ok. Things will generally "work". However, configuring the devices can be an extreme pain. An example, which is trivial in OS X and Windows, is tablet drivers. In order to adjust sensitivity on my bamboo tab

    And I'm the exact opposite. I love exercises. You should find what works for you and stick with it until it doesn't work for you! For a while, I would read a section out of a programming book, think to myself "Could I explain this better?",

    Good read. I wrote a similar Flask introductory article[0] on how I moved my Wordpress site/blog over to Flask. The source code of my site can be viewed on github[1]. [0]: http://vertstudios.com/blog/new-flask-site/ [1]: https://github.c

    Ah. Well perhaps the todo list at that point is just another means of procrastination; you feel productive because you're playing with productivity software. A todo list won't motivate you, but it can help keep motivated people organized.

    This thread is full of "evidence I've seen" without sources, on both sides of the argument.

    You're expanding on my point exactly. The Internet does not have such an obvious dark alley. You can copy HTML/CSS, have anchors with a different href than shown, and a lot of sly things. I hate using anologies when talking to hackers, so

    You're extremely grumpy. Blaming the victim is not some brave, heroic concept. People can imagine what it looks like to be in physical danger, and instinct can help them avoid the situations to some degree. It's hard to imagine what it's li

    How would you know that responsibility is needed without proper education about the dangers?
