    I'm aware of CA splitting -- it's not been adopted yet elsewhere in the US. It's too bad that you had to experience someone who was "swerving in and out" and not the majority of ri…

    I wish, for those of us that ride motorcycles in this type of traffic in the US, that all states would adopt a sensible lane-spitting allowance for motorcycles. In country after co…

    Well, privacy or no... I have found just the sheer "overhead" of _dealing_ with FB to be exhausting. I mean, really. Trolling through so many mundane and inane posts to get to the …

    This list of common oversights could apply equally to any CMS installation. Although I really dislike working in WP, I've also seen these same mistakes in other setups that clients…

    G+ is actually *not a "ghost town"; it doesn't presume that you have friend-like connections, and allows you to follow/circle and correspond easily with anyone. I tend to think of …

    I'm a webdev at an agency, and Meteor looks great from a prototyping perspective. Javascript is already a key component of much of our work, so this framework could help us roll ou…

    All absolutely great quotes -- and I *still couldn't stop thinking about how much this ying/yang reminds me of the hilarious quotes from "The Sphinx" in the movie, "Mystery Men" (1…

    +1 correct. A carrier battle group can't be everywhere, and the immense operational options available to a VTOL contingent make the program viable. I'm a former Navy pilot, and agr…

    +1 this... every time want to stop using FB, I get pressure from work and extended family who only communicate via FB.

    Agree. I *hate it when I receive ambiguous criticism, which just means that we'll need to dance around each other while I try to figure out exactly what "looks a little funny". Get…
