that first bullet point really makes sense to me - feels like there's "no right answer" for that one. i wonder if some kind of time frame would help - one has 72 hours to unpublish…

Wow, this is an amazing outcome here. Why is "unpublishing" something that can happen in npm? What's the point? I can see the downside, what's the upside?

These are great concrete examples that are very Linq specific. I cringed reading a few of them. The .ToList() materialization can easily be avoided by using a little skill, but the…

Be careful what you ask for -- you have to admit that it is possible to create some horrendous "code" with Linq. Also I have a hunch that OP is thinking of L2S or Linq2Entities or …

Wow, I wonder if they'd accept us.

I'm going to disagree with georgespencer -- not with his perfectly reasonable suggestions, but with the premise that it's not worth seeking out a mentor. On the face of it, nobody …

Hey Sha -- I can't speak for the rest of your cities, but Tampa, FL is VERY wrong. I drug the end point to downtown St. Petersburg and the times given appear to be almost double wh…

Nice. I'm glad to see this get some real world use. You need to get this in front of some advocacy groups.
