   my username is displayed as the owner. I've looked at the access, error and secure logs and the only thing I see that looks odd is a GET request that contains a short (40 or 50 characters total) string of hex like \xc3\x83\etc, etc. But tha

   I'll trust (professional) practitioners over theorists most any day. I used to be a pro photojournalist and I remember "arguing" with someone over "the best camera". It was me, who has owned and used most of the best cameras and lens' avail

   I am a voracious reader and always have been. As a kid I was the one in the summer reading program who was 3 or 4 times ahead of the next highest kid in number of books read. By 4th grade I was testing at the "post-collegiate" level in read

   Hmm... I've used Tor in the past when working from China. This could sort of suck. It was dog slow but sometimes the only way to gain access. FYI I used it to access sites that were blocked by the great firewall for no conceivable reason (l

   My wife's 35 year old brother-in-law eats so fast he resembles a vacumn cleaner, yet he is a skinny as a stick. I eat slow and in small quantities and have a bit of belly. I suspect that the reasons for obesity are myriad and are complexly

    Without knowing the other side of the story, without getting into the legalities or ethics of them cutting of API access like you say they are and going only on what you've said I would refuse them... easy. $250 is an insult, not an offer.

    I'd say don't do it. Seriously, why? What if it has some funamental negative impact on your brain? You'll satisfy your curiosity (well, with one tab you will probably only wonder what it "really" feels like because that probably isn't enoug

    So who is the registrar? Seems pretty serious to screw up a domain like that, especially a domain that is so major in the web dev world. I want to know who to avoid using in the future.

    This made me laugh. It is also true on public transport in China. The older people have really figured out this hierarchy and it is funny to watch them eyeing improved seating positions as a stop approaches. Then, the doors open, seats vaca

    For me it is, asleep from 1-4:40am, wake up at 7:30am to get the kids off to school, back asleep by 8:30am wake up at 11:00am-12:00pm. I then start work (I can work any hours I like as long as I do the work). Frankly, it kind of sucks. I've
