I use a laptop now, but at my former employer, when I used a workstation, the ergonomics department took away my 'clicky' keyboard because they said the large travel of the keys put too much strain on my wrists. They replaced it with a laptop-style keyboard.

1. 1.) Gray font, white background.
2. 2.) Has a "I'm a whiney, pain in everyone's ass, and perpetually single" tone to it.
3. 3.) TLDNR
4. 4.) My ass is tired of the whole "10 Things" listicle movement.

The evidence for "people are starting to buy Hummers" again (even though a new H2 hasn't come off the assembly line in 5 years, the H1 in 8 years):

"As for those Hummers? Autotrader.com said interest in Hummer H1s on its site rose 11 percent last month, making it the fastest-growing older model among all vehicles."

It doesn't take much interest to go from "0" to an 11% rise.

And this:

“We’ve sold a few just in the last few weeks,” said Blake Sharkey, an assistant sales manager at Stadium Auto in Arlington, Texas.

THEY SOLD 2 IN TEXAS THAT WERE ON A LOT, EVERYBODY FREAK THE F**K OUT!!!

Usually when one side says something is too aggressive, and the other side says it's not aggressive enough, it's probably right where it needs to be.

We haven't had one of these "miracle battery" stories on ./ in awhile. I look forward to never seeing this technology in a commercially viable product, just like all of the other previous "breakthroughs" in this field.

F**king Moonbeam...

Single mothers, the new group for whom there can be no criticism. Enjoy your time while it lasts, ladies, this Sunday in the WaPo it was all about people who can't decide if they're male or female...

I don't besmirch them at all for taking advantage of their local resources. Maybe oughta tell the kids though to leave their bottle openers off of their keychains; wouldn't want their car to suddenly turn off for reasons other than "it's cloudy".

'Major sponsors include Ford, General Motors, IMRA, Michigan Engineering, NYK, Qatar Airways and Siemens PLM Software.'

Watch out for future recalls though...

And Qatar Airways?

The growth rate also correlates quite well with the end of extended unemployment benefits. By raising the minimum wage, you've further increased the gap between the safety net and gainful employment, and thus given people more incentive to actually go and find work. More people working leads to capital actually creating value rather than being moved back and forth between the public and private piles. Good news, in general. However, we are talking about an awfully small sample size (a quarter, maybe two?). It will be interesting to see the data in a couple of years, assuming no major national or worldwide economic dislocation occurs, which, given the length of time that has expired since the last one and the cycles on which these things run, may very likely be just around the corner.

What percentage of people start out using Emacs and move to vim, or vice versa?

Whoosh...

It's not just the color around the edge. The text 'Digital Multimeter' is the same FONT used by Fluke. The shape is nearly identical. Sorry SparkFun, as has been said many times before, ignorance of the law is not an excuse.

It was in the pool!!!

"the growing hostility to science in popular rhetoric"

Seriously?

Cue the angry response to my comment from some GRA in an environmental science department at an institution of high esteem, who has never held a job outside of the academe, who once read an article on MoJo that illustrated how the Koch brothers are funneling $10 trillion a week into a subliminal messaging system that broadcasts anti-"climate change" propaganda via episodes of 'Duck Dynasty', and who thus claims that their research is subject to 'growing hostility'.
