So if you do get $$ from investors, when do you have to pay them back?

Also, the code is missing semicolons. Missing semicolons is a problem when minifying the code. I would recommend running your example code through JS lint for the next edition of the book.
Still, I've been looking to improve my JS foo and reading through this book may help. I will continue. It is attractively formatted and addresses topics that I want to know more about.
I've never compared; I just use the first one someone invited me to use. 5GB free.
But, I didn't touch military budgets at all, except for cutting civilian overhead.

The biggest shock for me was how little 'cutting earmarks' actually accomplishes, at merely $14 billion. I'm shocked because of how much political hot air is exhaled on it.

could a grease monkey script automatically clean up the supercookies after they have been planted?
But, interestingly, I got a 404 when I logged out.

Edit: actually, I can't log out. Fascinating, I know.
As advancement in my first career began to look more and more remote, I had found myself wishing I had become a computer programmer, and was frustrated that changing course was so hard. One day about two years ago I decided that if I wanted to become a programmer, then I should start programming. If I didn't keep up with the programming, then ipso facto I didn't want to be a programmer.
Two years on, with a few college classes under my belt (basically useful, but probably dispensable), and a couple of side projects in various states of disrepair, I've got an low level coding internship with a very supportive employer.
I'm hardly brilliant programmer, but my employer hasn't kicked me out the door yet. The corporate environment is, at best, ok, and I would probably prefer not to have a job at all, but I am learning a lot. As far as jobs go, I can't imagine a better one than the one I've got. I expect that what I'm learning will open doors in the future, and the despair that clouded my first career is replaced by a sense of (I hate buzzwords, but here one comes) empowerment.
Most importantly, I really enjoy tooling around with my (two) side projects. Having fun problems to work on is the best.
