Aching in the balls of my feet is the most common pain I get. I've tried using a soft mat which had no effect compared to a hard floor. It seems to be down to footwear - running trainers can be fine for several hours but with converse

I was seeing it as gee-wit. jwit also comes to mind. Not that I have any stake in it, but the most confusing thing to me is that it doesn't mention the words "Google Web Toolkit" until the Tutorial page. It's an abbrevia

I've found one use-case for mixed-keys: parsing complex headers. For example: Link: <http://cdn.example.com/stylesheet.css>; rel=stylesheet; type=text/css [ [0] => <http://cdn.

It's possible they've made a last ditch deal to sell the media to someone (perhaps even Twitter). That would make it important to keep the data private.

The sub-surface lines (Circle, District, Hammersmith&City) are getting new stock (same sort of features - walk-through carriages, little bit taller). In the past few years automation was introduced on Victoria, Northern, Jubilee and I t

One of the side effects is that it allows people to queue in the right spot (rather than guessing and lining the platform) which helps even out the number of people trying to get in one set of doors. Adding a bit of predictability helps str
