@matigo It, compliance that is, goes only downhill until the twenties when offspring leave home, or so I've been told. Personally, the 3 years until the twenties arrive can't pass quickly enough.
Think about it. ;)

@matigo How many different strategies do you have listed, in their difficulty levels? ;)
// @indigo @der_jeff @saket
@matigo Yeah, the false equivalence of they can turn a tablet on and play Angry Pacman so must know everything about computers because I need to write passw0rd on a post-it™ under the biscuit barrel.

@saket Afternoon sir. Yeah, @matigo's latest addition is still shiny and new. I was going to say compliant unlike my two now, but no, that simply doesn't happen even (especially) with new babies does it. :)
@indigo @der_jeff
@matigo "can do anything with a computer". How lazy is that? I hear it frequently, and it's simply not true in the yugest majority of cases. Ignorant adults ascribing skills their offspring simply don't have because the grown-ups think it's all mirrors, black thread, smoke and magic.

@streakmachine Not entirely altruistic either :) but sociable.
I'm thinking of the fark.com model, gifting a month for 'worthy' comments/posts - but don't know if it'd work here. The focus of that site is an enhanced view of the stuff submitted by other users. Here it'd be feature set.

@matigo Could you please consider allowing a couple of alternative scenarios, complications that they are:
- Putting one's dividend back into the pot to benefit you/infrastructure/feature bloat/subscription giveaways.
Er… that's it really.
That last is probably the most problematic given the feature set already here. The opportunity to trial subscriber-only stuff likely (to me at least) means newcomers will get a more-limited subset of what's on offer right now.
Dunno what though.
@kdfrawg Take care. Glad to see the supply of, and appetite for pie remains undiminished.
@larand ISO 8601!!!2!¡
I recently had a European colleague ask why a drawing time stamp gave validity for only one more day. It turns out US IT had been giving all released PDFs a MM/DD/YYYY US date format, so February was actually August. I asked our IT guy for a change to YYYY-MM-DD, and he agreed it was sensible, would request it. The US IT guy counter-proposed with DD- 3-initial-letters-of-the-month- YYYY.
Wat!!!
I pointed the simple fact that only one site in the group has English as it's native language, one more a bastardised version frequently unintelligible to us Brits[1776. Heh!], and the remaining group members and international suppliers, though many amazingly good with English[2016. Putting-me-to-shame amazing.], would have to mentally process each and…
If it happens it happens. (sighs…)
Strange how wounds can be opened from the unlikeliest sources. ;)

@jws If you haven't already done it, I too run this iPhone 6 with a font size increase, and prefer the fix you propose, to push the date to a second line.
Something I should have mentioned previously but I assumed (daft Baz) I was alone having bigger text.
