I find that text often overlaps very slightly with the menu options on the left of the page. Hitting refresh after the page loads cures this and it's a very minor flaw - but it is odd.
I agree with you, in as much as, I find it easier to just cut straight to the HTML but, I also understand that some people might prefer the WYSIWYG route - that's fair enough if it works for them.
I tried LaTeX, liked the idea, understood the advantages, worked hard at learning some of it's subtleties but in the end it was just easier for me to go back to WYSIWYG - it suits me better.
Try to be less judgemental (lest ye be judged).
PS sorry can't be bothered to look up accented characters for the subject line.
I don't blame people for still using the Killer Webpages (aka "table layout") paradigm - I do it myself sometimes, mainly because that's the way I thought for so long it's easier as a fall back to when CSS gets tricky (I know I shouldn't but the hell with it).
But, to propose this as the basic layout strategy for a new WYSIWYG web design application . . . I'm stunned that there are still people with such a backwards outlook.
OpenBSD is great but upgrading is a really huge pain in the ass. I moved from 3.4 to 3.5 but despite looking "everywhere" I couldn't find a better way than re-installing from scratch. It takes ages to get everything sorted out the way I like/need it again afterwards. I won't be upgrading until there is a major vulnerability I can't deal with another way - it's just too much of a pain.
We're hackers *because* we see this as a challenge
but shouldn't you be at work doing WORK
Puh-leaze . . . only lamers go to work to WORK; anybody with any sense goes to work to get PAID, having to do work is a sort of unpleasant (but mostly avoidable) side effect.
To support the right of free speech of someone who wishes to take it away, for good, is hypocrisy
No, it's the test of someone who really supports free speech. People who support free speech except when somebody says something they don't like are hypocrites.
If MS get their way and every website is running MS specific extensions, your "not under development" software becomes useless for viewing website as soon as there's some enhancement which breaks compatibility.
The menus didn't work in Mozilla for a very long time and it was only corrected very recently. (I took it as a very good sign when Nat West changed it to be more compatible with non-IE - obviously they are starting to see IE dependence as a problem)
Very true - a few years ago the first thing I'd do was change the user agent to spoof IE. These days I don't bother I never find sites which refuse Mozilla browsers now.
There's no "probably" about it - when it's in master mode it can reap all the benefits and in slave mode it can defect and reduce it's losses. A tit for tat program which can recognise/fake the handshake and respond accordingly is going to trounce this.
In UK rules the only restriction on bidding is that you can't bid one no-trump if you hold a singleton. Really is a mystery to me why they object so strongly to this though.
Two different addresses with the same "addressID" - not recommended practice! Is "addressID" supposed to be the primary key, if so this would give an error. Your comments are on the wrong lines - bad comments are worse than no comments. Strictly speaking it's not an error but most people put the primary key first.
But if you're going to go for an Openstep type window manager why not fluxbox. Less system resources and I've never found anything "missing" on fluxbox compared to windowmaker.
Newton's Mathematical contribution was amazing but not unprecedented and I think there have certainly been (at least) equally great Mathematicians. His contribution to Physics on the other hand is unequalled. I don't think the industial revolution would have happened without Newton, no useful engineering can be done without the basic laws he discovered. And as for the "standing on the shoulders of giants" thing - I'm a great believer in this generally, very little gets done without the use of knowledge built up over the centuries but Newton's mechanics aren't like that. Newtonian mechanics seems to be born from a unique moment of insight totally unrelated to anything which had gone before. The clarity of mind which enabled him to see through all the extraneous detail to the heart of existence was extraordinary. Yes, by all accounts Newton was a very unpleasant, petty, vindictive and unstable personality but his contribution to our understanding of the world was unequalled.

But previous to that; I think it was defined as a fraction (1/100,000 ?) of the average distance from a pole to the equator.
Did I say copyright infringement is legal?
How many times does it have to be pointed out to you morons that COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT IS NOT THEFT. Jeez ... it just won't sink in!
No, a "Habbit" is an Australian Hobbit.

In fact "technically" Y and W are both semi-vowels.

The Independent. It's by far the dullest UK newspaper

Since microsoft started "embracing" and then continually "extending" standards.

This is always brought up - oh no, Python enforces indentation. This is not a hassle - five minutes using Python and you won't even notice!

You are a luser and I claim my $5.00
PS. Database 101 is a little advanced for you.
That's right - when microsoft wants to use patent law it does it through a patsy, like . . . umm ?
Doesn't help though does it - if Novell continues to press it's patent portfolio against the "enemy" company.

Euclid is my "greatest" mathematician. You could take Euclid's Elements and use it as a high school textbook on geometry even today.
