I, for one, welcome our new anonymous summary-critiquing overlord

My father once told me he was at a diner where they apparently refilled the ketchup bottles without cleaning them first.. he poured some on his plate, and a few minutes later, the surface of the ketchup was covered with bubbles from some sort of fermentation I guess.. ugh.

I've wanted one of those for a while, but I wish they didn't always print the numbers below the LEDs. It kind of takes the mystery out of it when non-techie people realize you're just adding the numbers

It's just an option. If speaking on the phone is easier in your current situation, then that's what you do.

Then you can check your results against the responses from more experienced programmers. It exposes you to a lot of different uses for programming, and can give you ideas for writing your own programs. I learned enough that way to get a programming position where I work.

I agree.. I live about 20 miles south of Springfield, MA, and I think I can smell it from here.

Yes. I've been living in your basement for over a year now, by the way. Thanks for the free wifi!
