I started the Wheel of Time series and am currently through book 3 and I am loving it.

Wow. Deleting account now.

While I agree they do get lost quickly, there is an "ask" link in the header. I check there every so often, but maybe I am in the minority.

If you want a bunch of recruiters to contact you. Put your resume on job boards like monster.com, indeed, careerbuilder, etc. It might not be the best way to get a job (as others h…

I don't like the look quite as much in Sublime 3 and the ColdFusion plugin doesn't seem to work (obviously not going to be a problem for most people). Otherwise I haven't seen any …

One thing you can do is contact the organizations and ask for some documents about what they are doing with the money and other data. All organizations waste money or use it ways y…

I believe the saying is, "There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation, naming things and off-by-one errors." But seriously I do still have problems namin…

I think a better question is "How do you make something people will use?" People want a lot of things that they won't necessarily use. Look at all the apps on your phone that at so…

I became fluent in Russian after 2-3 months of living in Moldova. I had a crash course in Russian beforehand, but couldn't say a whole lot more than basic phrases before I got to M…

A couple of Easter Eggs would be nice.
