@Posco Grubb: I don't think the question was about why one shouldn't install multiple versions at once—it was about why this shouldn't be installed on one's primary machine.

@icefyre: No major interface change. The ribbon is likely to stick around for a while. Assuming that the Technical Preview is a good indicator of what we'll see in the final version, the interface is very similar to Office 2007.

This looks like a nice update and a good alternative for those who don't want to buy Photoshop. I am still running Photoshop 7—haven't been willing to drop the $ for a new version yet—and it really does everything I could need except handling RAW files. Looks like Paint.NET would basically duplicate most of what I…

Great advice—thanks for the sensible approach to this topic. #security

Works great for me. Fantastic! Thanks! #featuredfirefoxextension

Pretty cool! I love Nikon—since I moved to digital 7 years ago, all but one of my cameras have been Nikons. This app looks pretty cool, and it also looks like it has advice for a wide range of photographers. Topics include "composing better images" (pretty basic) and "learning to use the histogram" (a lot less…

@Jurandr: Good idea! I'll have to give that a try. #tips

I'm not sure about this idea, or the mounting at least—it looks like the first time the user pulls that drill off the shelf, s/he'll knock half the bits to the floor. Unlike a knife that is simple to find, a drill bit could easily bounce away into the small-object black hole that exists in many a workshop. #clutter

This particular wave is clearly too big. I found it unusable. #googlewave

@chrisp, @Alejandro: It's not necessarily a matter of trust. In many cases for me, it's simply a matter of convenience or utility. With mail, for example, my spouse handles most of our transactional post correspondence—things like magazine subscriptions, paying bills, etc. If it's something like that, my spouse…

@DiscoZombie: You are missing the point. Anything my spouse WANTS to know is available. Not everything IS known by both of us, but everything is AVAILABLE to be known.

@DiscoZombie: First of all, the "does this make me look fat" example is ridiculous. That's not about personal privacy at all. That's about being a supportive member of a relationship vs. being a jerk.

@chiman414: This is a fair distinction. I surely wouldn't have (and didn't) shared my password with past SOs. By the time I decided to get married, though, I was ready to jump in with both feet. There have been, and continue to be, no secrets in our marriage—which seems like a healthy thing to me.

@mgpcoe: I completely agree with this. I have no secrets from my spouse. There is nothing in either of our email accounts that we would want or need to hide from the other. We share our passwords and it is never a concern whatsoever. I like to live my life such that I would never be ashamed of anything that I'm…

In my workplace, we are not allowed to eat at our desks. I usually bring my lunch from home and eat in the cafeteria. I enjoy the break from work and find that it helps me to focus for the remainder of the day.

In addition to reducing wear and tear, this can also help to reduce comfort and attractiveness.

@pale_blue_eyes: Absolutely true.

There are a few things to keep in mind about any reward program:

Nothing for me yet. I probably spent too long writing Wave-themed poetry and creating ASCII art instead of just signing up. Oh well.

@jayp01: Am I correct in thinking that any site that can email you your password is storing it unhashed? Some websites only let you reset your password or give you a reminder—what I would expect if they are storing it hashed—while others will send the whole thing. I would guess that in this latter case, they are…
