   Because we can increase GDP (via public spending, yay!) and make our debt situation look like it's improving. Look, nominal total debt may not be perfect either, but saying Clinton reduced debt is factually wrong. In every year, we spent mo

   > The Federal Reserve — our central bank — buys and sells Treasury bonds all the time, in an effort to keep the economy on track. And how's that working out? This is all FUD, FUD, FUD..

   Total US debt (in dollars, not as a fraction of GDP, which is a horrible measure) increased every year through Clinton (and basically everyone else in modern history).

    We use hierarchical state machines (i.e. statecharts) quite a bit in our games.

    Since the data was relatively unsecured, why do you think that only now, after being published, it'll be used with bad intentions?

    Why do you think leaving this unpublished would have made the data any more private?

    You're confusing deficit and debt.

    I'm with you. I dug into it a bit yesterday. Ultimately I ended up slowly backing away. I feel like there's some awesomeness in there, but I still don't "get it".

    Will you and the website owner each verify the key fingerprints? What I'm getting at is it's a hard problem to solve, because users want it to be quick and easy. But that often works against the stated goal of security.

    FB chat has a jabber interface. It can be used by those of us who don't sit on FB all day too. Pretty convenient. Now, I hope they'll get the group chat working via jabber too.

    Then don't use it! Seriously, you said the problem was that you didn't want anyone contacting you. But the fact is that FB does this quite well, and it's not that much work. And, it's damn convenient. I, awhile ago, basically switched ove

    Are you sure of this? The CSR could also be comparing the hashed/bcrypted/whatever version of the password you give them over the phone to the hashed/bcrypted/whatever version stored in the database.

    Not "California", California residents. You are referring to US income tax, which is the same everywhere. Yes, it bleeds money out of our state. But I don't understand HTF you make the leap that this is the cause of all of our fiscal proble
