You would be better off and just holding off on that to see if you get an interview. And if you do, casually work it into the interview to show them that you did your research. If they decline to interview you, you could always mention it then. That again, would show them you did your research.
But I agree with @dmonkey, don't include in your initial contact with them. -
@CoffeeNcode Well the search is not working to well right now anyway, so if it is unavailable, I don't see that being a problem. Thanks again!
-
@CoffeeNcode Thanks. It's just a search index. I don't have much experience with Lucene so I am just trying to be sure.

@TheDane Business related emails should be professional especially when dealing with a client. Emoji's have no place there.
-
It's an internal server behind a firewall that is not freely accessible from the outside. But that shouldn't be an excuse for sloppiness.
-
The other side of the home office for when I need to take a break.
-
@starrynights89 I work for an older organization that, so far, has not been sucked into the "open office" revolution.
-
I do like my desk, and the private office is nice, the hardware just isn't that exciting.
-
@csharper We just retired our last Access application. It wasn't 97, but close. It was 2002.
-
I still have to occasionally maintain a classic ASP app that has comments in it like "Created with Frontpage". Sadly it is the core application for the business that uses it.

Because Skype is probably secretly being built by Apple designers.
-
You need a better circle of friends around you if the one's you have now let you drink that garbage beer.
-
"I hate PHP. Because of its bad reputation..." So you must not write any code then. Every language has some group of developers that say it sucks and it has a bad reputation.
-
@AlexDeLarge It wasn't one spectacular moment that caused it. It was a constant non-stop of annoyances that I let go on too long before I had enough. The final straw was when I sent them 4 emails today explaining the same thing to them. When they still didn't get it, I had enough.
-
@farkaskid There is one within walking distance to my office.
-
@retnikt Netflix says there are 5, but I think it's really 4 and a special episode after it ended.
-
@Milind1997 It's on Netflix. You should stop what you are doing and go watch all 5 seasons of it.
-
@Jantho1990 I completely agree.
-
@antorqs If I am unable to see him or her and they can prove they were in my office at the specified time of the interview, then I would hire them!
-
@Bartender I guess that is true and the downtime from the surgery would give me time to work on some personal projects...haha.
-
edx.org has one. Just go to their website and search nodejs.
-
@Bartender The closest I can get to Kentucky is Tennessee. I don't think my liver could handle the move across the border.
-
Must work in IE 6
-
Have you tried something like: a[href=www.google.com]

@fullyerectcolon She does understand that. Of course it goes both ways. My family respects my time when I am working, and when I am with my family I am with them. I am not checking emails or trying to figure out a blocking issue in my head.
This was not an overnight success. It took some time for everyone to adjust, but we are about 90 days out from launch and hopefully it will be all worth it. -
@fullyerectcolon After I was able to see where my time was going I was able to come up with a schedule that worked for me and my family. Most days I am able to stick with it, but there are days when things just come up.
The biggest hurdle for me was mental. I had to train myself to be ok with my day job ending when I left the office and not working for "the man" after hours anymore. -
I used to think there wasn't time to work on my own stuff also. Finally I spent a week and wrote down how I spent every hour of the day. It turned out the time was there, I just couldn't see it until writing everything down.
