I actually did a MindCamp session on making your own energy drinks 6+ years ago. The live demo/taster was a double-shot mocha with 150 mg of powdered caffeine (in solution), a bottle of shelf-stable chocolate milk (because I was at a conf), and a tablespoon of Torani Kahlua-flavored syrup.


Dude! I remember that! You had more than the LD50 of caffeine for the entire conference in the canister.


For C720s, I like distroshare.com. It has a number of Linux distros that have been optimized for the C720. I'll actually be installing their distro of ElementaryOS on a C720 tonight for a kid in our CoderDojo group.



I can testify to that.

I had done some SharePoint front end design when I was on an editorial team and we needed some features in our SharePoint site in 2008, but had to take any mention of SharePoint out of my resume because I got too many contacts from recruiters looking for a SharePoint architect.

I'm also a Zend Certified Engineer in PHP (don't hate). I'd never worked with Zend Framework, but would get very regular recruiter contacts because they didn't know the difference between "Zend" (a company) and "Zend Framework" (an MVC framework that was just one of their products).


Maybe I'm thick. The article is dated February 2014, it says flexbox "currently lacks browser support, mainly in IE (version 10 has partial support and full support won't arrive until version 11). Chrome, Safari and Firefox have support but with browser vendor prefixes."

IE11 came out in preview in June 2013, released officially in November 2013, and at least IE and Mozilla are currently supporting it unprefixed (though Mozilla's multi-line flexbox fails last time I checked). This article is over 3 months out of date, if not more, but being presented as new and current.


Please correct the syntax errors and poor logic in your job description.

Example 1:

Don't "HATE HATE HATE" anything, even IE6. Hating it is inefficient and wastes cycles. Deal with it or ignore it. Furthermore, practical people who find hatred inefficient will find your negativity offputting.

Frame it in a more positive light. "Would you like to be able to pretend IE doesn't exist and live in the joy of Chrome?" Essentially the same message as "Do you HATE HATE HATE Internet Explorer?? Do you love love love Chrome?" but way less negative.

Example 2:

"Lightening" is the gerund form of the verb "lighten," as in "lightening someone's load." While reducing someone's load will make them faster, I'm pretty sure it won't make them "lightning" fast.

Thanks.


You can set up a span with a style that has a link-like look (color, underline), use "cursor:pointer" in the style to make the pointer turn to a hand over it. Use a mouseover/out event catcher to trigger a tooltip that mimics the mouseover behavior on links, then capture the click event on the span to send the user to another page.

You can use JavaScript to swap out all the links for spans like these.

If you're on a site that's using intentionally deceptive JavaScript or getting malicious JavaScript injected, whether or not links go where you think they will is the least of your problems.
