Yes, that is absolutely correct, which is why I also said eligible. This provision says they want people who do more than 100 transactions or more than $5,000 - the $5,000 limit doesn't quite seem appropriate but I would guess that most people who do >=100 transactions a year are probably doing it for profit. I do wonder if we would see a "cost basis" field when making an auction to track profit.
Not sure what you're getting at--Europeans should never be charged sales tax from any state (there is no national US sales tax). This won't encourage or discourage sellers collecting sales tax from those people who they shouldn't be collecting from in the first place.
The IRS is not involved in collecting sales tax--this is about company and/or personal income tax. In fact, here's the first paragraph of the article:
When it comes to paying income taxes, eBay's legions of small-time entrepreneurs are on an honor system in which they are supposed to declare their profits to the Internal Revenue Service. Many users, however, ignore the law or are unaware of their obligation.
I believe they're after income tax - the amount of tax would be decided by the existing income tax code. It is likely that most eligible eBayers would be considered operating their own business (self-employment) and would need to report their income (and expenses) on a 1040SE.
Reporting of this income might also lead to sales tax as well, but that is collected by the state, not the IRS. In addition, this is the responsible of the buyer to pay, not the seller, unless the buyer and seller are in the same state.

#2. I assume you're you talking about menu acceleration; you could try this: http://www.unsanity.com/haxies/menumaster. Otherwise: you could access the menu bar on a Mac by doing Ctrl+F2, but then you have to arrow-key around. For anything repetitive, there obviously should be a regular keyboard shortcut. What most people don't know is that they can add their own in the same control panel as #7, although that doesn't always work 100%.
My story: I used to be a Mac-hater... I hated Windows but accepted it as life... then I saw someone use Macs to do the same work I was doing (web-based software development), and it seemed awfully nice. Made the jump with a Powerbook over 3 years ago and never looked back. I am able to do everything I was able to do on a PC and more (my favorite "more" being the BSD core and having a proper shell, it allows you to do a lot of Linux-like things that you can't do easily in Windows). About the only thing I missed was Windows-only games, but Boot Camp has solved that now that I have a Macbook Pro.

I would look at squirrel and ez_where -- I am not sure if these implement what you're looking for but they're the two plugins I know that can make complicated searching simple.
I generally agree, but your numbers are multiplied by two - do you have quarters instead of semesters? Once divided, it would nearly match pretty much what I took at RPI to obtain my CS degree:
Computer Science 1 and 2 (C++) Data Structures & Algorithms Computer Organization - some assembly, caching, memory management, performance Models of Computation - grammars, syntax, lex/flex & yacc/bison Programming Languages - lambda calculus, functional programming, etc Operating Systems - processes, threads, paging, windows vs linux Software Design & Documentation - the class this whole post is about Network Programming (CS elective) Database Systems (CS elective)
Except for the last two, all are required - in addition, you must take 2 or 3 (I forget) 400-level CS electives - the ones I mentioned are popular choices.
In addition there were these math requirements:
Calculus 1 and 2 Discrete Structures (Discrete Mathematics) 1 Math elective (typically Diff Eq or Linear Algebra)
While I am a fan of pushing a language forward, Javascript is not your run-of-the-mill language since, to be useful for web developers, it has to be implemented on the majority of clients. Who is pushing Javascript forward (is there a standards body?), and where are the other browsers as far as compatibility/implementation of a particular version?
Yes, they understand. They know that this will mean they won't be able to gouge customers, and that might mean bad things for their bottom line. This is just their way of doublespeaking.

It's not just an effect library (anymore?). Yes, it is built on top of prototype - in fact, scriptaculous has the only documentation I know of for Prototype. But that shouldn't it exclude it from a list of AJAX library comparisons. That's like saying "well, the GIMP uses libpng so we're not going to review it amongst photo editors."
Anti-disclaimer: I don't have anything to do with the script.aculo.us guys, but as a Ruby on Rails developer it has served my needs just fine.
Why is that script.aculo.us is left out of these comparisons? script.aculo.us is behind the AJAX in most Ruby on Rails apps, but it can be used on its own. (As of Rails 1.1, Rails has special built-in support to make it even easier to use.)
The SAT verbal exam primarily tests vocabulary. I believe the new writing exam would be a more accurate measurement of the grandfather's grammar.
I have to also agree with the sibling post that native grammar is often much worse than foreign language grammar - I learned more about grammar in Spanish class then I did in English class, which mostly focused on literature and vocabulary (much to my detriment). However, in talking to my adult peers, this seems to be a product of my school's curriculum, not necessarily the norm.
Like one of my siblings, you basically want TCP over HTTP, aka just put your traffic inside an HTTP packet. We like to joke about TCPoHTTPoTCP at work but I guess it has a use.;)
To one of the other siblings: TCP is not blocked, but a firewall can look at the first line of the packet and if it is not HTTP it will drop the packet - I've dealt with firewalls that do this - quite irritating if you're sending a POST request through the firewall only to have any request larger than a single TCP packet (typical MTU of ~1500 bytes) get blocked by the firewall.

Thank you for explaining with math what is quite obvious.
No, not being sarcastic - thank you.
