I feel at some point there must be a balance. I view HN as a way for me to "sharpen the saw" as they say. This is precisely why I've stopped going to those "other" social bookmarking sites. Too much distraction, not enough substance.

hmm just tried it with Chrome on my machine and it seemed to be working, perhaps they've already updated?

wow, even now that I know it was the shoes that's still incredibly impressive. That would take a lot of strength to get down that low.

I saw this a little while ago, but was very disappointed that all outgoing links point to the hiband version. Effectively, I have to change all my links before browsing to them, or load the hiband version first then click the lowband link. Anybody have a secret I'm not getting?

I am a software security consultant and developer, and I've got to say my favorite is PasswordSafe, originally written by Bruce Schneier, it's now open source and available on sourceforge. It's secure, lightweight, easy to use and can be installed on a thumbdrive for portability. http://passwordsafe.sourceforge.net/

I must admit, I've been coming here (I suppose lurking) for quite some time and was a bit surprise to see all the Erlang submissions. Then I read this and it totally cracked me up. Thanks for the laugh, guys.
