How did Joel learn to program so good? Whenever I take a class for PHP or ASP I'm stuck in a class with a bunch of people that can barely turn on a computer and I learn nothing but the basics over again.
And, for the record, you should ask Jon, Adam, and Alex, our programmers. I'm really not very good!

Answer to:
Are shocks necessary for mountain biking?
They aren't necessary, but they sure are nice to have! A good set of front shocks will drastically reduce the abuse your arms will take, and a good rear shock will keep your butt from getting too saddle sore. I'd say the rear shock is not quite as important as the front because you're usually standing up off the seat while riding in the really rough stuff anyway.

Answer to:
How should I use the front and rear brakes? Together? One more than the other?
Typically you want to use your rear brake most. If you clamp down hard on the front brake, the front wheel will lock up and either skid or endo (throwing you over the handlebars), neither of which is a good thing. Bias your braking to the rear in most cases, giving the front light pressure.

What is a deductible?
When you apply for auto insurance, the company will ask you to choose an amount to be your "deductible." In the event that you need to file a claim on the insurance (when something happens to your car), all you will need to do is pay the amount of the deductible (often $500), and the insurance company will pay the rest up to your coverage limit.
If you want a low deductible, your...

Is there any reason to use RAID on a home computer?
Sure - it can accomplish a couple things for you. If you're very interested in speed (in regards to launching programs, accessing large amounts of data), you can use RAID in a striping setup so that your PC will be able to retrieve data from your hard drives faster. If you use RAID mirroring, it can also be a good backup system.
Be sure to research your RAID strategy first....

If you are using Paypal for online payments, do you find that it discourages customers from buying because it requires them to have a Paypal account?
It may, or it may not, but every barrier to purchase on your site probably costs you a fraction of your sales. It is well known that customers commonly leave a site just before making a purchase, so you might as well make it as easy as possible for them to buy!

Answer to:
What is a spur gear?
The spur is the larger gear that is driven by the pinion gear. In on-road cars, the spur often has balls mounted in it so that it can function as the differential as well.
Answer to:
What is a pinion gear?
This is the gear that attaches directly to the motor.
Answer to:
What is a differential?
The differential allows the drive wheels on each side of the car to spin at different rates while cornering. If cars did not have differentials, they would lose traction quickly and spin out.
When you pick the car up and spin one drive wheel, the other drive wheel should spin in the opposite direction (assuming the spur gear is being held fixed by the motor.)

What are the best upgrades for an R/C car?
The first thing to buy would be a good electronic speed controller. The mechanical ones are junk and will use up your batteries too quickly.
The next thing to buy would be ball bearings, if you don't already have them. They will extend the life of the car and make it go faster as well.

What are some things to remember when writing a resume?
Try to list measurable accomplishments, such as "I designed a product that increased my company's revenues by 50%". Specific accomplishments deliver a more forceful message to the employer, and they also show the employer that you keep the company's "big picture" in mind.

How do I know if I'm getting a good dividend yield?
To truly judge a dividend yield, you have to look at what you paid (or are going to pay) for the stock. Let's say you paid $20/share for Company A, and it's now at $100/share. Let's say their dividend yield is 2%, which may not sound that impressive, so you will get back $2/share annually. However, because you bought in at $20/share, you're really getting a 10% annual...
