Interesting to see a seemingly premium domain devoted to geeky jokes, with no ads or solicitation.

Random question: I was looking at [1], linked by Normalize. How come the element HTML element "A" has no default values? It sure seems to always be blue/purple and underlined... Thanks in advance. [1] http://css-class.com/test/css/defaults

Thanks for the actual figures, and sorry for my poor estimate. So the load was 60MB instead of 3MB. Just out of curiosity, was your account rightly suspended? What quota applied?

My bad on Readability, as I made an assumption without checking. I see what you are saying, and I partly agree, but I am of the opinion that language is rich enough to emphasize relevant points without further aids. But it's becoming SO com

Also, "of Unix and Plan9 fame"... I accept that his audience and HNers may feel just as home with Plan 9 as they are with UNIX, but the wording suggests that these two systems grant the same level of fame, which is a wild stretch!

Do you eschew the use of typographical techniques that aid reading, both speed and comprehension, such as emboldening, headings, breaks, italics, font and colour changes? It is interesting to note that some of the most important works pro

Hey, thanks for your exaplanation. Come to think about it, I'm only likely to experiment (DNS etc.) with a personal account nobody is likely to want.

We have 35 upvotes for this story, 30kB for the content... say 100 visitors (a 3:1 visitor-upvoter ratio is more than generous). Is it normal for the resulting 3MB traffic spike to suspend a shared-hosting account? It just seems too bad to

If a domain name has twenty name server (web hosting) changes over the recent past, for example, it might be an indication that the owner is trying to cover something up. Too bad that experimenting with your own name servers could be held

Talk about Renaissance men: John Macfarlane's main activity lies in philosophy, and still he answers within hours most questions on the Pandoc mailing lists.

The use of the word "vaguely" makes me doubt it.

So it is quite possible that you may indeed agree with that foreigner on the issue being discussed and yet wonder why s/he didn't stay home... So much for open, frank dialogues!

As a foreigner who studied in the US, I used to find myself attacking some US actions with some American friends, while attacking senseless knee-jerk anti-Americanism back in my country... A sad, and also tiring state of affairs, without

How are the Chinese and American situations vaguely similar? Just because one involves computers and the other doesn't? If these counterexamples are not made up, what would it take for you to go from being tired to seriously revising your

Of the 40-50 kids I knew in college, not a single one took College Alegbra. But this kind of "College Algebra" is, understandably, considered college-level material. That pretty much happens only in the US (considering countries with educ

You can also rant about the universities in the US, but they are still the best in the world. I think you would have to elaborate on that quite a bit to make it somewhat true. Lots of foreign students, including some of the brightest, get

Aside: This looks like an official press release. If so, why doesn't Amazon issue it on the domain amazon.com? It would look more authentic.
