document.writeln is generally frowned upon in production code since there are better ways to manipulate a page using the DOM. I still see it used occasionally for debugging (although even that usage is disappearing, as most browsers have s

Most of those upvotes are from one day though, so they only get about 200 reputation due to the cap. (Also, they gave away 50 points on a bounty for the top answer, so I'm not sure if reputation was the motive or not.)

I don't see the parallel between github and Stack Overflow. I can understand why programmers in certain industries and companies won't be posting their code on github. If all of the code you write professionally is proprietary,

It's a Facebook end-user support issue, not a programming question. What else would you expect from Stack Overflow? Closing it as off-topic is appropriate.

AMC makes their shows available for streaming on Netflix faster than any other network that I'm aware of. All past seasons of Breaking Bad are available already. They usually make each season available for streaming soon after the DVD

How Google displays their own search results (tables or divs) is irrelevant to how their crawler interprets everyone else's pages.

Is that a thing? I think organic in this context implies that a person is in the loop taking an action somewhere. Don't get me wrong. I can think of a couple of legitimate uses for this, so I don't think it's a 100% scammy

Ah, of course, thank you. I didn't see it anywhere on the review page or the main Amazon page for the book, so it threw me off. I was afraid I was going to have to finish SICP before I'd get this reference. :)

I made the mistake of writing a short series of blog posts about unsolved math problems a few years ago. It seemed innocent enough at the time, but I still get "proofs" submitted today. I'm a programmer, not a mathematician
