Now's the time to start. But yeah, you don't say "we're doing it my way." It probably sounds more like, I'm broke, I want to pay you back, what can we do to help me make it happen?

In my book, that makes it even worse. I can at least have sympathy for people who write and talk that way because they've never known anything else.

I just read the article. In it, you assume the product could be better, as you just repeated here ("could be a lot better"). Please explain how that's not begging the question.

I cannot understand your last sentence. Please help. "This kind of tempting?" "Eschewed?" Eclipsed? Eschewed in favor of?

Have you tried adding a function that converts between locales and ordering/indexing by that in Postgres? Like in this thread: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2004-09/msg0075...

Yeah, it's a terrible sentence. First they're "we," then they're "Adobe," then they're "we" again, and while you were distracted by all that, behind your back they snuck in "as we are [working]" when they meant "as we do."

I think it's nice of Garmin to let them use the company's property like that.

Would you please explain how driving a small car (let's take a Prius as the obvious example) has exactly the same effect on the environment as driving a gas-guzzler? I don't get it.

So as little as $300,000? Unless the amount was much greater, I'm betting there've been far more expensive Javascript mistakes.

Set it up so the participating sites can give away rewards to the people who beta test. Free accounts, discounts, whatever. You could organize all that. Even if only a fraction of reviewed sites do it, you'll have enough people coming thr

When I'm hunting through my papers for receipts, I want those things to look like what they are--receipts. The only drawback to the existing MASA receipt that I can see is that it's harder to make your web page look good when you're trying

Haha. I like it. Looks good to me, though I'm not a lawyer. Only thing I could think of adding would be a sentence that explicitly says something like "you assume all responsibility for your use of the site and any information you get fr
