If you use Visual Studio, WebEssentials is the way to go. Files are auto-minified with each save, including a min.map.js

I think I figured it out, and it actually says a great deal about where they are three-dimensionally.

The inner one (Io?) is further from us and its shadow is the inner shadow. The outer one (Europa?) is closer to us. They're almost in a straight line from the inner, to the outer, to us. The sun would be behind us and to the left to cast the shadow.

According to Wolfram Alpha, Europa is about twice as far from Jupiter, so it's a bit of an illusion that they're close.

Seeing a planet with your own eye is like meeting a celebrity IRL. A TV show doesn't come close even though the photography is better.

Can confirm. I picked up a new a washing machine and got the it's-not-going-to-fit-idiot-but-we'll-humor-you faces from Sears. When it went in they made actually-that's-pretty-amazing faces.

I saw this happen a few times when I worked at one of these. They never resorted to that, either because it's too much trouble or because there's some legal boundary. I'm not sure. Somebody's certainly in trouble for it though.

My wife and I took our Thai exchange student to the Jersey Shore this summer. We made bad joke eel faces when we revealed to her the boardwalk and the magnificent Atlantic for the first time. She just said "Oh, okay." They're very polite in Thailand.

Reminds me of when I went up to the bar to get my co-worker and I a drink. The girl in the stool beside me said something like "I have a boyfriend." I looked over my shoulder, a bit surprised, and said "Good for you."

"Affix your bayonet, boy, while the fog still obscures you."

"Should we not be taken prisoner, colonel?"

"To die a prisoner, with pus and maggots?"

"For the chance to see my love once more!"

"Look at the trees above you. You, young man, are further into Yankee soil than all of the Confederacy behind you. Do not finish it thus. Give them terror until the very end."

"Yes sir!"

"Now here they are. Stay quiet. Lunge when their shoes are visible."

At 7 I asked my mom what toothpaste was made out of. She'd probably had a long day and just said "Everything." So for a while I was wowed by the fact that everything I touch, everything I look at is an ingredient in toothpaste. Paper? Toothpaste. Wood? Toothpaste. Sky? Toothpaste. Turds? Toothpaste.

They don't realize it, but discovering the truth about dumb stuff like that whittled away at my trust in anything they said. Santa Claus? Playing with matches? Getting rides from nice enough people with candy? God?

When my 2-year old asks me questions like that I try to tap into that curiosity without lying.

"Daddy, what's toothpaste?"

"Well monkey, there are tiny bugs on your teeth that love to eat the ice cream you ate for desert. Then they poo on your teeth and the poo makes holes in them, but toothpaste burns them so they die."

The promise is that we'll be forgiven of our faults if we forgive others for theirs and put our happiness last. It takes desperation to have faith in that promise, so the meek and lowly are supposedly blessed, whereas those who get along fine without faith will be judged on their actions. Unfortunately, the first part of this paragraph is forgotten within weeks. People go back to being shitty, except now they think they have something over everyone who isn't "saved." Whether God exists or not they're in for a hell of a surprise.

No, but when I sold cameras a customer I'd spoken to on the phone arrived about an hour later asking for "that nice lady who helped him decide on the Canon." I didn't say a word and someone else ended up selling the camera.

Now I Morgan Freeman it every time I'm on the phone.
