As long as I can remember, I've been a good singer. I've also always enjoyed singing, so the thousands of hours of practice accumulated during childhood, in the car, in the shower, etc. didn't really seem like "hard work". I wouldn't say I'

This is a bit of a late reply, but the reason it's committing everything that your colleague changed is that it's the definition of a merge commit. I find that it's desirable to avoid merges to reduce the number of overall commits. To do th

I agree with your general sentiment, as we've seen with HFCS, Margarine, etc. However, I think this piece is something entirely different. It's not a salt substitute -- they're essentially increasing the surface area of the salt.

You laugh, but we as humans have no problem identifying the faces with odd makeup as faces.

If stock options are part of the deal, my understanding is that generally the more senior your position, higher the ratio of options to salary and the bigger pay cut you are expected to take.

It also keeps the fat, slippery laces on my hiking shoes securely tied. The only bad thing is that if you try to yank it undone and the single end has made its way through the loop, you may have a mess of untangling to do.

Jobs' comment about build quality certainly rang true with me: My 1st generation eeePC basically fell apart after a year.

"to say nothing of the business risk of outsourcing a key stage of your signup process to a third party." I thought you meant that Google would have actually considered ditching their own captcha in favor of recaptcha for google sign-up.
