Not a developer, but what do you mean in your second paragraph? Do you think people should take more time between jobs or spend part of their (generally two weeks) notice as vacation? Just wondering.

I've read about this a bit for mods on DSLRs for taking older Canon's and allowing them to record video. If the DSLR isn't designed for recording video the sensor isn't designed for continuous light exposure which will heat up an ruin the sensor. I don't know the differences but I'd imagine using one of the newer DSLRs that have video recording capability as a webcam would be fine.

I haven't followed html5 development too closely, but audio support in current browsers hasn't been uniform. I'm guessing the lack of one size fits all for audio in browsers is why.

edit: I'd also guess because audio is hard and that it is probably easier to make graphics and gaming logic than making sounds/music properly.

I've been reading off and on about Bitcoins on HN for a while and had no idea that they could be broken down into smaller units. From Wikipedia:

"In trade, one bitcoin is subdivided into 100-million smaller units called satoshis, defined by eight decimal places.[4]"

In maths at my local community college the teacher made lesson plans for the 3 latest editions of the book, allowing students to be able follow along with whatever one they had/could afford.

I've signed up since then and haven't received any spam at all(also created a new email at the time).

I think the blog post is worth reading and has some good points but the picture does seem out of place.

Regarding 1, enabling Javascript fixed that for me, Chrome Version 23.0.1271.101 with ScriptSave v1.0.6.13 on OSX 10.7.5.

For someone just learning RoR and having installed it via http://railsinstaller.org/, how should I upgrade?
