If you really want to get worked up, he "invests" in Tylenol when he gets a headache, too. Why is his financial allocation a problem? Nobody was complaining when he wasn't donating to VHI at all. I'm sure it pales in comparison to what th

Cool enough that some exec is wondering how they can utilize it for future advertising. Looks like that water screen even had space in the corner for a "Glasses not working? 1-800-CONTACTS".

I don't see the word `corrupt` putting us that far afield than using `manipulate`. Merriam-Webster defines corrupt as "to alter from the original or correct form or version". You're probably getting downvoted for what's become a common atti

I don't get it either. I mean, if he really wants to make me happy but can only build in the context of G+, make a "Reader" tab and open up Reader in an iframe that takes up 90% of the page (outer frame optional). There's nothing about G+

Please don't do this; it's annoying and unnecessary. The context for untog's comment was quite clear. A lot of folks wasted time trying to clarify something for you.

Commenting is still not required, AFAICT. Are you positing that better formatting encourages worse comments/documentation? I'm of the opinion that their presentation is independent of their quality.

Key word here was "front-end". Algorithms aren't usually featured as often there. Before we break out the broad brushes, lets not paint all programming jobs as requiring the same skills. [1] Eric Lippert summed this up quite nicely: >

Another reason may be that it's easy to let students validate their work with the built in `go test`. > Your job is to modify client.go, server.go, and common.go so that they pass the tests in test_test.go (which go test runs).
