On: Fun with math: Dividing one by 998001 yields a surprising result

[jeffcapeshop]

you could always do 1/99980001 - that would have a 0998

[hammock → jeffcapeshop]

But it would lack a 9998.

[jeffcapeshop → hammock]

then i suppose we need 1/9999800001 !

[jQueryIsAwesome → jeffcapeshop]

But it would lack... just kidding.

Another way to get the real consecutive numbers is to make a rest so we avoid that annoying increment at the end:

1/998001 - 1e-1000

possibly inappropriate but i'd just like to say that i'm a huge fan of ridewithgps, best by some way for planning/sharing routes (i have never actually used the gps bit)

[cullenking → jeffcapeshop]

Thanks for the praise, nothing inappropriate about it ;)

Our name is a huge misnomer, it's more like Ride With or Without GPS....Problem is you can't really rebrand a 3 year old company with good traffic.

didn't adobe do this? i can't remember what it was called though.. but it was similar - set up in browser editable areas on existing html

Are you talking about Contribute?

[jeffcapeshop → evlapix]

found it - was "inContext" which seems to have been scrapped, or at least bundled into something else. http://incontextediting.adobe.com/

which shows the problem of managing something like this through a third party anyway!
