  And also some more serious ones, as I wasn't able to find the info on the website: Where are you located, or is remoting an option? How about a full job, culture, and infrastructure description, and list of benefits?... read more »

• Use jQuery's SlideDown() With Fixed-Width Elements To Prevent Jumping

  Posted on Sep 29, 2011 at 4:49 PM

  Great insight into a plaguing issue, thanks for that! Now knowing the cause though, I can't help but wonder if it would be best for jQuery to take into consideration the width of the container of the content it's working with, seeing as how the way it's currently handled is a bit incomplet... read more »

  Seems like an interesting technique, but I'm having trouble coming up with a good use-case for it. In the example given, the same result can be accomplished using margin instead.... read more »

• The Sexiest Thing A Woman Can Say In An Elevator

  Posted on Jul 16, 2011 at 6:53 PM

  Haha, totally not sexy - good job reminder her why she's your EX! If a woman were to say that to me, it would immediately make me think about her armpits, and if they're hairy or not, and if she typically has an odor issue. I think I just lost my appetite :-/... read more »

  Posted on Jan 24, 2011 at 4:55 PM

  I'm not sure how you could have possibly come to that conclusion, but low self-esteem is certainly NOT a prerequisite for sacrifice. Being alive is. Every time you make a choice between 2 or more things, you're making a sacrifice. Every time you take a chance on something, you're making a sacrifi... read more »
