This is ridiculous. Going to college certainly shouldn't be taken lightly and if you don't have an interest in broadening your mind and just want to make money, then you'd be better off educating yourself or going to a trade school. But f

Not much I can think of, other than Startup Weekends which are held here about twice a year. Speaking of which, most of the people there are business-minded folk so there is probably an opportunity for entrepreneurship meetups. http://tec

After I wrote that, I realized that all editors would need to have the same capability which is pretty much a non-starter (and whitespace is universal). Your other points are well taken too.

Obviously (to me anyway) you're right, and I'm surprised there are people who don't indent their HTML like that. But a thought just occurred to me -- why don't editors do this automatically and without creating actual whitespace (tabs/spac

What do you mean by 'too heavy'? I'm not sure how moving the data to another table would help if you have a lot of users. I would use a user_profiles table if I wanted values to be localized (different values for different languages), but
