Toronto as well. Couple of blocks north!

Awesome!

Great book and I just bought it. Is it possible to get a version with a white background for better printing?

Praise from me for the naughty tactic regardless of execution. If you're note sure if you did the right thing then find some consolation in the fourth point on this page: http://pa…

You have learned a language sounds like you are done learning. The longer I spent with a language (both formal and natural ones) the more I am aware of what I don't know yet. Since…

Beautiful graph. The notes with the graph are TC;DNG for me (too complicated; did not get). Sounded impressive though.

I think you are spot on. It's the same reason why making a successful online dating website is very hard.

I recommend refraining from using the W word when getting an initial quote if you can.

Thank you. So different densities are sufficient, not liquidity? From the same article on Wikipedia: "Dissipation of heat from the mantle is acknowledged to be the original source …

Interesting but I am not getting it. How does plate movement happen without a liquid substrate?

The google bot won't touch any javascript, it will just follow links. You can consider a link to a directory to the different themes.

Great initiative. Can the mere length of a TOS and it's complexity be a factor in the rating too? The crowd here may be able to somewhat grasp the legalese in a TOS. It's not fair …

I think you just did :)

Looks clean to me. Check out for yourself of course. Does bring up an interesting dilemma. We all download code, libraries etc. all the time without going through it with a fine co…

Sending $$ might not be much. Receiving is another story.

Enjoyed reading that, thank you.

I think meetup had the post to Craigslist a long time a go. Not sure if the still do it.

Why did Craigslist decided to sue padmapper but let housingmaps.com live for many years is puzzling to me. Anyone has an idea why?

Yes that's possible. It would not be able to capture as much detail but you would get surpisingly far. The technique is called stacking in astrophotography. There is special softwa…

Reminds me of Annette Benning in American Beauty: "I will sell this house today. I will sell this house today." Not starting on activities because you don't like them or you don't …
