Sounds like a support headache. I'd love the feature but I don't blame Google for not just rushing out and adding this.

I'm not sure about all of them but CoffeeScript emits good, portable, fast JS.

There are a lot of people outside of the 1st world's lavish lifestyle and deep pockets (filled also with $500 gadgets). If you live in the USA you don't even have to leave your own country to see the other side. Strike the last sentence a

I guess it's easier to parse, but however NetBeans does it they have pretty decent Ruby support so I don't know if it's really that big of a disadvantage. Seems like you'd want a handful of really good, comprehensive parsers for any languag

My non-technical sisters know what RSS is and use Google Reader to watch blogs of family & friends. I couldn't believe it when my sister first mentioned RSS or Google Reader, I remember exclaiming "You know what RSS is?!" I bet if someo

Because I changed my default font size? If you say so...

(Excuse my ranting, could just be crankiness due to a lack of sleep caused by a 7am flight) My default font size is 16pt and that should be enough imo, but x-small applied to 16pt is still small. My display does have a relatively high DPI

[off-topic] Seriously? x-small ?! No matter how pretty you think your site looks if people can't read the fucking text it doesn't matter. On top of that the contrast is terrible making it even worse. font: x-small "Trebuchet MS", Tre

Wonder if they allow single-letter domain names. I'd love to get i.ng and just go nuts with it. ti.ng would be pretty good too.

In the case of pair programming specifically who you pair with can make or break it, and I have a feeling many people who don't like pairing have been paired with someone that they are fundamentally incompatible with. That sounds a bit mush

$50,000 to get somebody at MS to even look at a regression? For $50,000 you could fix basically any bug or add a significant feature to an open source system.

I also got VB4-6 pirated somewhere around 1998. My dad got me to read a book on VB4 and down the rabbit hole I went (I had dabbled before, but just scripting apps like mIRC and a few DOS batch files).
