I don't really think that this is going to be very good. Law&Order typically revolves around a Victim and Culprit duality. I can see the story going from a faceless crowd of harassers and boiling down to one guy, prolly another developer, who is doing the whole thing.

If you use this strategy, it's important to remember that buying a gift card doesn't necessarily save you money. If you have an immediate desire to spend on the things the gift card covers then you can save something, but if you are buying gift cards because they have bonus gift cards attached, it may actually cost…

I think I'm one of those guys that people keep around for an injection of negativity. I think it goes down something like this "This idea is awesome, you know who hates awesome things... Tristan. Let's tell him about it and get all bummed out"

Gotta dilute it until there aren't molecules left, just the memory of the molecule. That's where the real health benefits start kicking in.

The term "Bone Broth" bothers me, because it's not broth, it's stock! It bothers me even more because someone could say "Bone Broth" and then you'd have to ask what kinda animal was used in it's making... I've got ziplock bags full of the stuff in my freezer, and it's tasty stuff, but I label what kinda bones I used…

I have been programming since I was 8. I learned Apple Basic in grade school, more basic and hypertalk in junior high, went to C in high school, moved to a small town where they taught pascal, then went to college and learned java. The school of practical applications has taught me many more languages. I've since…

True. A few safe experiments on the proper thickness would be appropriate before putting your knives up though.

Games are not too long. Some games outstay their welcome and have more content left over and no fun left. The problem isn't the length of the game, the problem is the lack of fun.

My answer is "I'm not very good at answering stupid interview questions".

It's a difficult decision. There is a slippery slope argument to be made about allowing children more "allowed" absences. Truancy can be a problem, and providing additional excuses could cause more trouble.

I had the opportunity to move to to a bigger city a number of years ago and work with some talented programmers, and I passed on it because I was afraid that I'd discover that I was just average. That move may have meant that I would be much stronger than I am today, and that I could have overcome whatever average…

I agree, it is more work than the standard Fry, Rest, Fry method, but the results are consistently better and allows for you to make-ahead many batches of fries.

I agree, it is not that much more work, but it is more work. And, you'll end up with 3 stacks of potatoes when you are done. Doing it the way I've described completely eliminates the need for this, as the boiling step causes all of your potatoes to have a uniform water content. (I also like to use the vinegar trick…

This sugar water approach also has the added benefit of better color without over-cooking the potatoes.

Serious Eats did an amazing article a few years ago deconstructing the McDonalds fry and creating a kitchen friendly reproducible recipe. I've made them a number of times and they come out consistent and good.

My special signal is a text message or a phone call. My coworkers are decent people who won't bother me unnecessarily.

No, only with people who seem to misunderstand what I'm saying.

Chickens don't have butts. Also, a "fresh turd" does exist... it's not very appealing, but it is indeed fresh. I would argue that a fresh turd is far less appealing than a stale turd.

I actually don't think you understood my comment... "Consuming documentation" and learning" are two very different things. I can consume a ton of information about a topic that I will forget in a week's time when that particular task is finished. I didn't learn anything. Creating an index in my head to where the…

I've read somewhere that the highest form of advertising is in the phrase "Farm Fresh Eggs".
