As a non-web-dev, the hardest problem I've encountered is choice. Which framework should I choose to do X? To do Y? Do they play together? Are they still supported? Are they well documented? What assumptions are made by them? There are

As others mentioned, placing a bid on eBay doesn't cost you anything. More importantly, these penny auctions lack is transparency. The argument is that they're not gambling because it's a game influenced by skill, but for tha
