    Who comes up with this shit. If someone is sick they shouldn't come to work at all, ever. You should encourage people to stay home so they don't get others sick. If they can manage…

    Yeah it's a bit hit or miss because of that — I really wish I could literally make my bookmarks a private Google of content I've seen. Usually there are a series of things I try li…

    This has always been my understanding as well. I've always tried to write HTML in a manner that would remove all presentational aspects to the point that I could redesign an entire…

    I use them in Chrome all the time, I have thousands — I basically search them as kind of a personal google... for those "Oh I remember reading an article about that once, let me fi…
