Reddit experienced some issues with Amazon a month ago that resulted in the site being down for almost a day. I'm pretty sure they're way below that percentage.

I'm not sure I quite agree. Any time I read anything about space, black holes, relativity etc. (which is way outside my field, I'm a programmer) I get that same sense of wonder. It's not gone, it's just that we don't have to wonder about the little stuff anymore. :-)

It's spelled "pick", and it's all one word "pickaxe".

Samuel L. Jackson is a programmer. Haven't you seen Jurassic Park, motherfucker?
