I'm on like day 9 of convincing myself to commit to Amazon RDS. I already moved a large database there, I just haven't committed the $1820 for a one year instance reservation.

I talked to Jeff about this, and he agrees that Programmers.se is much diffe...
I hope the question titles/text are in astandard font though, custom narrow fonts are hard to read
and custom fonts always end up doing weird things on some systems... too many websites using typekit look horrible in chrome for me, text is hard to read
I changed "as you scroll up" → "as you scroll down"
