I eat fairly simply, so leftovers are usually the best tasting thing in my fridge!

I'm disinclined to upvote when I'm forced to watch a video to find out why I should watch the video.

"A picture is worth a thousand videos"

It's an option, but entirely dependent on who you work for. I would imagine this would be easy for creative type jobs and not so much for business type jobs.

It also doesn't cover correlation/causation. Did the book boom cause their industrialization, or did the mass industrialization cause the book boom?

I came to the same conclusion when I consolodated into a 30 year loan. Since my loan doesn't grow much faster than inflation (if any), I won't save much by paying it early, and the monthly payment will seem smaller every year.

If the license doesn't mention patents, then it doesn't cover them. Copyright licenses and patent licenses are two different things. It's pathetic that the two are actually able to intersect in this manner.

I conclude that the marvelous scheme was, in fact, slightly non-marvelous.

I don't think the USSR published the names, so whatever NATO called things became the de facto name for the rest of the world.

Bush created the deficit because he believed that? I don't think you understand the cause of the deficit or the crisis.

>Also, what they don't tell you is that a prestigious accent can and will improve speaker's credibility.

I was going to suggest the same thing.

Urban legend.

I once talked to a Frenchman who learned English in Australia. I could clearly hear the two accents. It was fascinating.

Your driving example is actually characteristic of how men and women differ on the issue. And the opposite is true of accidents: men, who fancy themselves better drivers, get in far more serious accidents due to aggressive and reckless behavior, and women, who fancy themselves safer/better, (supposedly) get in far more fender benders with slow moving or parked cars (possibly do to spatial perception).

In my (unresearched) opinion, cursor:pointer was created to indicate that a hyperlink can be clicked on. Buttons were obvious, but underlined words in the middle of a paragraph, not so much.

It irritates me when people learn a concept and then illogically apply it to other domains. That's why I'm making a fuss, it seems like everybody is not using their brains and saying "EVERYTHING you click must use the hand because links do!".

Yes, but buttons are buttons wherever they are, and browsers even style them according to the OS theme. That's why I think they should be treated as buttons and not hyperlinks.

And the sad thing is that desktop applications are starting to do this too. The new Symantec Antivirus interface is all webby and slow (something else I don't like), and uses the hand for buttons. This makes me a sad panda.

I find it wholly unnatural, hence the rage >:|

You don't 'click on' a button, you 'click' or 'push' it. It's a button. There's no need to change the cursor to let you know that you can actually click on it. That's the reason hyperlinks use the hand.

"Another golden oldie that got dropped is cursor: hand, the MS proprietary alternative to cursor: pointer"

I hate that no matter what it's called. For God's sake, don't use the hyperlink cursor for buttons!
