StrongLifts is basically Starting Strength repackaged for easier consumption with better marketing. For beginners, both will do a great job of getting you in shape, but reading Ripptoe's books is a must for getting into anything more advanced.

Sometimes I think I am the only nerd who never had a traumatic high school experience. Sure, I never got along with the jocks, but I never really wanted to either. I was perfectly happy hanging out with my nerd friends.

Not so fast, seems to be a problem according to the SpaceX webcast. There is supposed to be a press conference within a few hours.

I think a forum for an app is a bit different because it has a specific topic that makes people seek it out. No one is going to stay on a new discussion forum if it has no users and there are more options. Also, subreddits may start out like that, but have you seen how many are completely deserted?
Re:Redesigning the Windows Logo

I think the question arose from the fact that the old logo looked like it was trying to be both a window and a flag at the same time. The reason for looking like a window was pretty obvious, but the reason for looking like a flag wasn't.

I imagine simulation is definitely the route they will go. To be honest, I would be happy with anything outside of just reading and answering questions. I am taking a similar course at my university now, and there is absolutely no lab exercises, simulations, or anything outside of your typical lecture. I've been learning LTspice in my spare time, but I was pretty disappointed that there wasn't something like that already in the curriculum.

Sort of related is this plan to use quadrotors for small item delivery in remote areas. It could work well in developed areas too, I think.
