   Looks pretty cool. When I was on the 'iternerary' view the bar at the top of the screen changing colors drove me crazy though.

   The implication, however, is that higher-education institutions that last for hundreds of years are better for education. Who's to say Cornell is a better 'educational institution' than Wikipedia? Sure a degree from Cornell looks better on

   "Charley, Ivan, Jeanne, Katrina, Dean, and Ike were not names associated with weather." With the exception of Katrina this is still true.

   Seems like a cool idea. If they were smart they'd not only target companies looking for people but people looking for jobs. e.g. Adding a "Allow the codility community to take this test" check box. Then you have the a whole world full of

   His book was a new york times best-seller. Does that necessarily imply that it is a good book? Also, are we sure it wasn't ghost written?

   Just because you've stayed married that doesn't mean you have a good marriage.

    "XML will continue to be a better choice than JSON or YAML for the same reason that McDonalds is a better choice than Arby's or Hardees" I'm not quite sure what he's driving at here...

    While farmers and mechanics work from home their actual work environment is outside of their normal living space. Its pretty easy to stay on task when you're out in the garage or barn. Meanwhile, we all know what its like to sit down in f

    1) When I clicked in the 'Title, author or ISBN' box the text didn't go away. That's annoying. I'm using FF 3.5 by the way. 2) I didn't know what the site was for at first glance. The banner with the University logos... is it an ad? Are

    If you dig deeper there is still a lot of good stuff. It turns out that the idea of having each subreddit be a small 'community' kinda works. Each day my wife checks out /r/Frugal just to see if there is anything new. She doesn't really

    Sure. But they probably had the option to stay longer and possibly could've left earlier if they wanted to violate their contract and lose money. (This is speculation on my part. I have no idea what the terms of the conde nast sale were)

    Apparently you can build an immunity to mosquito bites over time. I have not confirmed this with my personal experience...

    Alexis and Steve: how much of this had to do with the 'censorship' you alluded to when the atheism/front-page and sears/'hacking' issues happened? I see to recall a comment from one of you saying that you couldn't talk about it much now, bu

    A little off topic but if you're doing testing in IE8 you can switch it into compatibility mode to see how the page would render in IE7.

    Well the thread title seems to imply that this is someone we should care about. "Migheul de Icaza responds to..." vs. "A response to..."
