Yeah, sorry for the typos in the slides – I missed them while proofreading and unfortunately can't correct them now.

I think the people in this thread discussing how my stylistic choices are "wrong" may have missed my point. Too bad.

Ha, yeah. Just a typo – it's been so long since I've had to write retain/release, and thank goodness!

Lush specified to the BBC that they didn't request the URL. They could be lying though.
Re:Lush cosmetics in YouTube address dispute on Tuesday June 23, 2015 @05:33PM (#9767978)

That's, uhh, that's some pretty high-level bullshit, Google.
