Well no... the middle child only comes into existence upon the introduction of the younger child.

Hah this is pretty much me at my current joint... and the worst part is it just feels like there's nothing left after.

Technical Evangelist sounds like a good fit. i.e. someone who loves the product, knows about the product, and is able to pitch the product in different ways to different audiences (techy users, developers, etc.). This person would also know

I don't know. I had the feeling you were raising a contradictory point? Or am I mistaken.

I vote for the solution below which asks "how do you wish to be identified" instead of "what is your gender".

Lets propose that you have a child, and in your wisdom, decide that letting your child roam on the streets is low risk and thus ok. Do you then proclaim to everyone that they must let their children roam alone on the streets as the real ris

And that's a separate issue to what Randall is raising.

Guys, lets not get carried away by the issue here. The issue is NOT about gender identification. It is Google+ not providing the ability to hide your gender on your profile (I won't say they're FORCING you to post your gender). The issue of

At first glance at your comment I said "how would that help". Then I thought about it a second time, and I think this is actually a legitimate way to approach the problem of gender identification. So +1 for me. Wonder what others think

Yup I see it as an oversight. While I believe that people get overly sensitive about gender (or any politicall-incorrectness), I also believe that it is in their right to do so, and if Google does fulfil this request then all the better for

That's a taboo I don't understand. What's wrong with talking about what you earn? I can understand if it was pride/ego preventing people from talking about it. But from the workers' perspective wouldn't it be better to know what the going r

"Looking for co-founder" is another way of saying "I have no money to pay for a technical team so I'm offering you a stake in a potentially successful venture". Makes sense to me.

Seems to me like an obsolescence strategy. By declaring right out that it is no longer going to be supported, people will be encouraged to write for the newer databases. Eventually when the standard MySQL version moves up, it won't be stuck

When you maximise a window, it takes up the entire screen. In the case of multiple monitors, it takes up the entire screen of the current monitor it is currently displayed in. Multiple monitors are therefore a hardware method of window mana

Isn't dropping trailing slashes a bit dangerous? They have different semantic meanings.

Technically, (my interpretation is that) it abstracts your application from your db. The ORM acquires the data, allowing your application code to concentrate on using the data.

I agree with rimantas. Views and Stored Procedures should not be used to perform business logic stuff i.e. I should not have to create a view with massive joins just because a logic need requires it. And I should not have to dive into my da

For a second I thought you made a site where people could contribute their ideas and try to gain public support. At which point I would have just pointed at Kickstarter.

Interpreted pedantically, removing ORM techniques means dealing directly with resultsets or loosly typed structures. This is definitely what I DO NOT want in any of my views. If you're working with an OO language like C#.NET or Java, good

I am someone who empathises with your situation. However, look at it this way. If it is such a great idea, chances are other people have already thought about it. To assume that you are the only person to have thought about something is jus
