For when people offer to donate.. but only if I implement my plugin for them.
_____, to be completely honest, I'm just too busy maintaining these
plugins and writing articles about plugin development to be able to
help with specific implementations. The examples and documentation
I've already taken the time to create are usually sufficient for most
developers looking to implement _____ in their website.
If you are experiencing a very specific problem, feel free to stop
into the official jQuery IRC channel for help with that specific
issue. Also, if you choose to recognize the hard work I've put into
any of my projects with a donation, it would be greatly appreciated.

Using no "active" class (but the middle is always "active" in the display).

Stevey's Google Platforms Rant

I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google for that long. One thing that struck me immediately about the two companies -- an impression that has been reinforced almost daily -- is that Amazon does everything wrong, and Google does everything right. Sure, it's a sweeping generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy. There are probably a hundred or even two hundred different ways you can compare the two companies, and Google is superior in all but three of them, if I recall correctly. I actually did a spreadsheet at one point but Legal wouldn't let me show it to anyone, even though recruiting loved it.

I mean, just to give you a very brief taste: Amazon's recruiting process is fundamentally flawed by having teams hire for themselves, so their hiring bar is incredibly inconsistent across teams, despite various efforts they've made to level it out. And their operations are a mess; they don't real
