    Not saying it's not odd, but have you seen this video of Wright? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZNtbAFnr-0 If he is Satoshi, and what he's saying about being forced to reveal his…

    Actually, my mum uses it all the time. She's a primary school teacher, and it works great for children's worksheets, seeing as the 'a' is formed the way we learn to write it at sch…

    Quick note: on the homepage, bottom left: "But isn't this like any other start chart?" I assume it's meant to be 'star chart'...

    FYI jkurnia, when I load the site, it loads in French, as I'm currently in a French-speaking country. When I click to change to English in the footer, it reloads the page, still in…

    lutusp is right - your comment comes across as aggressive and personally attacking, as if you did have something to hide. If you 'could write a long post explaining the many inaccu…

    But it said in the article that they decided to keep penetration under 1% of the population so as not to arouse suspicion. Plus, they had a lot more limitations than your average S…

    I know what you mean, and mostly agree with you. What they did was actually a good thing, but for the wrong reasons. I doubt that on a high-up level, this was done for the good of …

    This is the first I've seen of this project, it looks inspirational. But how did you choose the projects? I've often wanted to do a small project just for the sake of making someth…

    She might not have done the most complicated things in the world - I'm no expert "coder" but I've done more complex things than her. BUT I'd bet she's a better "coder" than me. She…

    What about bald men? Will they be punished for not being physically able to replicate the hairstyle? It's just mental. Thank god they're not doing the same thing with David Cameron…

    Incredibly interesting. Anyone want to speculate on what a video 1000 years from now would look like? My history of Europe isn't too shoddy, but it's not until you see it visualise…

    Strange, their 'Download it, Sire!' button isn't clickable, despite it being a link. They also have 4 h1s on the page.

    It doesn't have to be "antiseptic" at all - there are plenty of thriving, wildly-successful, mostly-males companies with great cultures where women feel comfortable too. Also, it w…
