Question about which tools to use, bugs, the best way to implement a function, etc should go here. Don't forget to see if your question is answered in the wiki first! When in doubt post here.
Anyway, the art of silently lurking on a forum in order to get the knack opf how things are done in that place is something recommendable I daresay
i certainly agree... i read every post ever posted here before i made my first post, and i did the same on MT...
i learned a lot more from that then i ever could by asking questions
actually, i think i have only asked 1 question (over on MT) and nobody ever bothered to answer it... but i managed to obtain my answer through implications in other responses to other posts since then
For all things; perfection is, and will always remain, impossible to achieve in practice. However; by striving for perfection we create things that are as perfect as practically possible. Let the pursuit of perfection be our guide.

I'm talking about the job, bills, mortgage, spouse, kids, tax, the lawn, the car, the sleep deprivation, the birthdays and funerals and barbeques in the park, the freaking mobile phone salesman that wastes an hour of your Friday afternoon, the mechanic that says your car won't be fixed until next week. Your parents ring and say they're visiting for the weekend - rip 2 days out of your calander and throw them in the fire. Your work sends you away for 2 weeks of "how to waste an employees life" training. For *$%*# sake, I'm trying to write an OS here dammit!
