The name 'key' is a bit misleading.
It is not your 'license', it is simply a means of controlling anonymous access to the api and to gather usage metrics.
So, while there is no value in advertising your key, there is no need to be concerned with it's visibility in your application code.
I'm in a bit of an awkward situation. I have a Gmail email address which I have never given out to anyone; I use it for one purpose and one purpose alone: for alerts that my servers are down to be sent to my cell phone
I never give it out because I don't want people emailing my cell phone :-)
Recently a few people (maybe 5) have all started emailing tis address as if they know me.
I recognize none of these people. But maybe I've just forgotten who they are??
One keeps referring to my father
I emailed one of these people two weeks ago asking who they were and he said "it's your neighbor!". I have no idea who this guy is!
Well, now I got an email from one of them saying her father passed away, and she invited me to sit Shiva with them
:-(
I feel I have an obligation to respond to her and make sure she understands I'm not the same Josh! Am I correct, or would that be rude/insensitive?
> First, I'm sorry to hear of your loss. My condolences to you and your family... A small number of people whom I do not recognize, yourself included, have been emailing me at this address, and I'm afraid you have me confused with another Joshua Gitlin... At first I thought it was just Mark, but after receiving this email I am pretty sure that you must have me confused with someone else..
I use each email address for separate purposes. 2 for specific circles of friends, 1 as a spam wastebin because I used it too much, one exclusively for shopping, and one for here and one other net community.
So now I'm writing too much in this situation, LOL
> First, I'm sorry to hear of your loss. My condolences to you and your family... While I have not experienced the death of a parent firsthand, my family and friends have, so I know secondhand how difficult it can be, and I wish you the best during this difficult time.
I should probably just go back to what I had before and be done with it... just feels so cold!
> A small number of people whom I do not recognize, yourself included, have been emailing me at this address, and I'm afraid you have me confused with another Joshua Gitlin... At first I thought it was just "Mark Golby", but after receiving this email I am very sure that you must have me confused with someone else...
> If I am mistaken, please forgive me! If not, please let me know if there's anything I can do to be of assistance to you in finding the Joshua Gitlin whom you intended this message to reach.
Thoughts? Reccomendations? Or should I just let it fly?
Ever since the new site proposals have gone into public beta, there has been a need to explain to beginners how the StackExchange system works. After all, the site can be overwhelming to anyone who has never seen it before.
Some of the Metas for the new sites contain questions like I am new here...
The "Dolphin Dancer" achievement requires that I get three dolphins to appear on screen. It seems that the longer I run, the more likely I am to get more dolphins, but I'm curious what actually causes this number to increase. Is it distance, number of fairies collected, number of stars destroye...
Got a voicemail last night on my work phone just after I left work: Hey, Sweetheart. This does not sound like your voice on the recording by the way. Just wanted to say hi and touch base. Had a good meeting with Roberson, who knows what will happen.
But Alex got a Spanish Test and Science Test back, and he did not do well in Spanish at all. Got a B in Science. As you can imagine, I'm a little disappointed, but anyway, we can go from there. So anyway, I'll touch base with you when you get a chance. Bye.
@spoulson Thanks, it's something that's been bugging me for a while on SO :-) At least now I can leave a gentle comment on the answers that say "use onkeyup" with a link to that post.
I have a very odd intermittent issue. It occurs on a shared hosting server running CentOS and Apache/2.2.8, serving mostly PHP based websites at a rate of between 10 - 30 requests/sec. 3.5 GB RAM, kernel 2.6.9-67.0.7ELsmp in case that matters.
What happens is, about once a week (but seemingly ra...
