When 3.1 is released, within hours a google search for 'how the hell do I make rails spit out javascript instead of coffeescript' (or 'rails js cs', most likely) will produce hundreds of results, all of which explain the one-line change nec

I have a strong suspicion that `+1`s you give out would affect your search results at least as much as would those of your friends.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_localization There's a lot more to it than that, and it's not just something that occasionally works. The outer-ear notch filtering is also used in vertical localization.

While that would be nice for the techie crowd, it would read to the typical user like "we were lying before, sorry about that". Not very feasible.

I got the distinct impression that the number was being given as a somewhat joking reference to the RIAA logic. I doubt the entire company has a gross revenue anywhere close to that number.
