Perhaps google should open up additional channels of communication for "top contributors" to escalate problems?

Is anyone else having cognitive dissonance with the % of ingredients in so-many-grams of water? Does 1% baking soda and 0.5% salt in 2000 grams of water mean 20 grams of baking soda and 10 grams of salt?

Beginner's mistake. "Beginners mistake" can only be used as the start of a sentence as in "Beginners mistake azure for blue."

FYI: I'm running a 1920x1200 screen rotated, so with my browser (FF32) as full screen I'm just at the point that the annoying #dd_ajax_float element is shown, but it covers the left edge of the first paragraph.

Being a bit pedantic here, but shouldn't it be specified as a URI, "tel:0000" not a URL-ish "tel://0000" with 0000 as the authority?

I find it ironic that the country harboring Edward Snowden is implementing this policy. ( To be fair, Snowden's complaint was not that America has a surveillance state, but that the NSA was implementing it covertly. )

This could only be a very rough first-pass on detection. Bathing suits can be very skimpy without being fully nude. And social context plays a large role, for instance distinguishing between a fat male's nipples and a small-chested fe

IANAS but it never made sense to me that global warming would be linear with amount of CO_2, at some point, I figured 95% of the available IR would be absorbed by the atmosphere and doubling the CO_2 would only get us to, like, 97.5%. Then

I'm not sure if they can deliver on the custom grind promise. I know that supermarkets have to grind in a specific order: roughly cow, pig, chicken: lower required cooking temperature to higher. Is every burger going to be well-done?

I'm confused by their claim of hashing and THEN salting authentication codes. On the server-side, we don't store the authentication code in plaintext. We hash it with PBKDF2 / SHA-256, salt it, then store it.

I once solved a bug where i=5 didn't execute (single stepping through the assembly also failed to assign the variable), the fix? i=5; i=5; i=5; i=5; and, I believe we it shipped like that.

I don't understand why an accidental detonation of a warhead would produce "lethal" fallout. Yet there's comparatively little concern (and rightfully so) over the 2000+ intentional test detonations done around the world
