It's not that awkward, C# does the same thing:

   interface IPoint
    {
   // Property signatures: 
   int x
   {
      get;
      set;
   }

   int y
   {
      get;
      set;
   }
   }

Going to be "that guy":

On the installation page, it says to do this:

    curl -s http://repository.rainloop.net/installer.php | php
    wget -qO- http://repository.rainloop.net/installer.php | php
This is incredibly dangerous. Because it's http, it can be Man-In-The-Middle'd, so you're basically executing arbitrary commands on your computer. (See: php function exec()). Also, even if it's non TLS/SSL, you're putting a lot of trust in Rainloop not being hacked or malicious.
If you read the article it has absolutely nothing to do with global filters or film emulation.
This looks great! It would look better if the font wasn't monospaced (if you're looking for suggestions, I love the free Google font "Oxygen").

If you look on the left, the learning plan shows that it would take 22 hours to complete from the bottom up. Logistic regression page just assumes you know all prior knowledge.

You reminded me of something that does exactly this for machine learning. I posted it on the front page of HN (Metacademy).

Looking at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_radioactive_isotopes_by..., californium-253 has a nice 17 day half-life. I propose we make this our new value of currency.

It might help to mention what plugin it was, the link to your plugin, the link on their site, and the link on envato.

You should include "I have access to one that I can use".
Re:Body Suit Gives You Real-Life 'Spidey Sense' on Saturday February 23, 2013 @03:20AM (#5268990)
It seems as though this would only work if you were not moving. Is there a way to determine the relative position of people even if you were moving?
> But ... its a score to jstor. It's unorganized.

I'd imagine competing against an organization that's been around for 18 years won't take 6-7 hours of coding. :) It's an MVP, one I'm quite embarrassed about. But I'll continue coding. Someone suggested an open Google Scholar approach - that's one direction this project could head in.
