I hate how people use this but not the phrase itself.

Everything DOES happen for a reason. It's literal, precise, and accurate. Reasons dont need to be mysterious, aloof, or unknowable. They often are because we choose to stop learning but everything does happen for a reason so start looking for better questions

If you calculated it as 8 hours a day of work it would work out to $62.5/hour

That's as things may be now. What we have consistently seen is that company's can often change their policy whenever they want. It's happened too many times already to think the current lunch is future proof

Harry Chapin My child arrived just the other day He came to the world in the usual way But there were planes to catch, and bills to pay He learned to walk while I was away And he was talkin' 'fore I knew it And as he grew, he'd say "I'm gonna be like you, Dad You know I'm gonna be like you"

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man in the moon "When you comin' home, Dad?" "I don't know when But we'll get together then You know we'll have a good time then"

My son turned ten just the other day He said, "Thanks for the ball, Dad, c'mon let's play Can you teach me to throw?" I said, "Not today I got a lot to do", he said, "That's okay" And he, he walked away but his smile Never dimmed and said "I'm gonna be like him, yeah You know I'm gonna be like him"

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man in the moon "When you comin' home, Dad? "I don't know when But we'll get together then You know we'll have a good time then"

Well, he came from college just the other day So much like a man, I just had to say "Son, I'm proud of you, can you sit for a while?" He shook his head, and he said with a smile "What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys" "See you later, can I have them please?"

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man in the moon "When you comin' home, son?" "I don't know when But we'll get together then, Dad You know we'll have a good time then"

I've long since retired, my son's moved away I called him up just the other day I said, "I'd like to see you if you don't mind" He said, "I'd love to, Dad, if I could find the time" "You see, my new job's a hassle and the kid's got the flu" "But it's sure nice talkin' to you, Dad It's been sure nice talkin' to you"

And as I hung up the phone, it occurred to me He'd grown up just like me My boy was just like me

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man in the moon "When you comin' home, son? "I don't know when But we'll get together then, Dad We're gonna have a good time then"

Remember when blizzard let you install a spawn copy on a friends computer so you could play together?

Also some DS games had similar where only one copy of the cartridge was needed to play with friends. Think one was mariokart DS

Would be a very popular move to letting people play together without everyone needing to be nickel and dimed(i feel like thats also a dated phrase now that i read it. Old gamers remember! Young gamers please help us find cool things, we are old and cant keep up!)

Wikipedia does a pretty decent job of eventually being correct, at any given time it can be outrageously inaccurate. Its good to not just use wikipedia entrys and use the sources that are linked there. By using the sources that are cited you are helping to keep wiki trustworthy and helps avoid you using bad information.

It works well to manage the integrity of wiki. I think being able to intuitively navigate between entries by a variety of metrics like edits that have remained unedited the longest/shorest, newest/oldest, etc would be a very good addition to wiki.

Some kind of webarchive of wiki sources would also be amazing so that if the sources disappear or change over time there is a connection to what it was at the time it originally/previously was used as a source on wiki.

And maybe some of this already exists and im just not very good at getting my 4dollars a month worth :P
