On: Supreme Court Will Hear Pledge of Allegiance Case

"A little humility at acknowledging a supreme being is probably something that most people could use."

One does not need to acknowledge a supreme being to express humility. It takes little more than acknowledging the existence of the universe as a whole to be humbled. I agree that most people would benefit from showing a little humility, but I'd rather that humility come from realizing humanity's true place in the universe than from believing in something that is a purely human creation to begin with.

On: Multiple Monitors Increase Productivity

I've been running multiple monitors for years now, and as a developer, I can say that it has greatly increased my productivity. Instead of having to constantly task switch between my IDE, it's online reference program, and any web pages that I have open, I can just toss the IDE in one monitor and the other stuff in the second one. It really saves on time, and makes it much easier to follow what i'm doing in the code.
