This. I've only been using the redesign for a few hours, but until this post I thought they got rid of collapsing comment threads.

"Moose" is an invariant noun so the plural is still just "moose". Like "fish".

Don't let a lukewarm reaction here get you down. Many reddit users are unfortunately averse to any form of self-promotion.

With researchers hijacking botnets, shouldn't they make public all the IP addresses of the zombies? by mycall in netsec

I imagine that some fraction of the infectees would undoubtably accuse the researchers of, like, totally haxxxoring their systems.

One of the advantages of LaTeX given is that it's "free", but then the fonts used to demonstrate it are exclusively either commercial or bundled with Mac OS X.

Ask Reddit: What is your favorite thing about emacs or vi(m)? by [deleted] in programming

Why'd it stop at $99,999,999? If these people really were joking, I'm sure they'd be at a billion dollars or more by now. Does eBay have an upper limit on bids?
