Also helps to increase my chat volume... soon I will surpass Jeff and then I will rule the WORLD!!! Or, something slightly smaller than the world... OK. maybe it just makes me exceedingly lame, who knows...
Interesing. He just pulled me into a meeting. Explained why he let her go, and said he wants me to step into a global role (head IT for the entire 3 offices), but using contracters instead of employees. This is weird and stupid, but we'll see. He fires the important person, and attempts to promote me. It's weird...
which is what pisses me off. He never even asked me about her at all. But we'll see. He wants to fly me to the UK next week to talk. I think I'm going to go, and then see how that goes prior to putting my resume out there...
You should use mysql_real_escape_string for escaping all string input parameters in a query.
and use type casting to sanitize numeric parameters
and use whitelisting to sanitize identifiers.
Go figure

I often use `keyword` (quotes around keywords) to highlight some keyword or phrase in comments. While the backticks work, the shortcut Ctrl+K does not work in comments. Can we allow that please?
I somehow find a double click on the word (or selecting a phrase with mouse) and Ctrl+K easier th...
How was the moderation nominee reputation requirement chosen?
On SO, it's the requirement is currently 11,538 reputation to nominate yourself, and may change. Seems pretty random. Tagged: discussion moderator-nomination by Corey on meta.stackoverflow.com
I placed an order with Newegg, but it was placed on hold for address verification. (I hadn't realized that my bank had finally applied the change of address I requested back in September.)
Wondering whether to go on systematic voting spree to get the Sportsmanship badge. I must be nearly there so it should take less than 2 days worth of votes (maybe even 1).
They kept saying that I hadn't been charged yet. However, my available balance said otherwise.
So, I was trying to find out how long it would take for the charge to be reversed if I cancelled the order.
To make a long story short, I danced around in circles with a CSR for 30 effing minutes to confirm that it could be 3-5 days before the hold was released by my bank. =/
Looking at the list of recent activities by the nominees, they have a large number of (no title) posts (the no title bit was added by me), which must mean it's the nomination posts

The fact of existence of the polynomial algorithm for 3-SAT problem leads to a conclusion that P=NP.
Is there validity to this argument that there is a P=NP solution? How long till this can be verified?...
Couldn't we solve this problem by telling candidates to get rid of their locations and instead say roughly what hours they're awake? I mean, what if someone works the night shift?
This is an English language site, so I personally would expect a moderator candidate to be well versed in English (not that where they come from indicates that)...
I just had it happen to me that I clicked on a closed question on Super User and it immediately directed me to Stack Overflow, where it had been migrated. So I have no idea who did the migration, and if there had been edit history, I'm not sure it would have all gone over. If ALL of the informa...
Clicking on a migrated question now leads to an immediate header redirect to the target site.
For a new user, this must be utterly confusing. They asked a question on one site, and suddenly end up on another they don't know anything about, and usually don't have an account on. The explanation wh...
@PopularDemand Oh, you weren't here for that conversation? He's decided to make a change in professions after deciding he'd rather do something else, and as part of that he wanted to leave the temptation of SO behind.
I will have my SO accounts dissolved - being on page 1 is too much of a temptation to just answer one more question - but I'll create new accounts to be around on chat from time to time and (when it comes to fruition) Outdoors.SE
@PopularDemand Ah, that sounds rather unpleasant. And yeah, it is...I mean, certainly good from the perspective that he's willing to make a lifestyle change for the sake of happiness, but his contributions will be missed.
