Not sure if you can see the "text" above, but 1Slate is a free public forum offering a uniquely simplified and (IMO) elegant "real hypermedia" implementation.
There is utility in the relatively simple N-way linking with tranclusion (reuse objects) and in-context autosuggest, consistent edge meaning (support), 5-bin statistics, unlimited private collaborators, etc.
I did look into that, and it seemed to fit into the "overkill" category for me, although I didn't try it first hand since at the time I didn't have access to a Linux box.
There seem to be a lot of editors like that, and the high end ones, that are really for editing together actual short films, movies, etc. The fancy non-linear editors have so many bells and whistles that I get overwhelmed and bogged down in features. I have the kind of personality that I would start tweaking the video forever if I did something like this, and video editing isn't really something that I want to put a ton of research into or learn.
I'm looking for something that's geared towards making simple videos to showcase pictures, text, and videos of the person in charge of the Kickstarter cut in between. I'm certainly not making a movie, and like I said, there are apps that can do everything I want and more, but I really don't want to spend hours trying to do something simple. While the number of trashy Youtube videos generally outweighs the good ones, I'm sometimes surprised at the quality of ones by people just doing something like a makeup tutorial that don't really seem like they have much of a technical or artistic background. There's got to be something I'm missing.
The colon at the end of the first line was intended to map the first text string to the last text string of my original post. So, you're right, and sorry for the confusing grammar.
Do it. Easily the easiest $7k I ever made was the result of a (carefully crafted but not difficultly formulated) 60 second email requesting more money in response to the engineering job offer that I accepted out of college.
Remember to include some examples of why you deserve it--this way, the hiring agent can use the same reasons to make an easy decision.
"NaN-tagging: 64 bit tagged values are used for stack slots and table slots. Unboxed floating-point numbers (doubles) are overlayed with tagged object references. The latter can be distinguished from numbers via the use of special NaNs as tags. It's a remote descendant of pointer-tagging.
[The idea dates back to 2006, but I haven't disclosed it before 2008. Special NaNs have been used to overlay pointers before. Others have used it for tagging later on. The specific layout is of my own devising.]" [1]
Uneducated conjecture: They're not just any floating points, they are doubles. You need twice the capacity of one (32-bit double) in order to fake 64 bits. I assume that this helps meet the requirements of other pieces being hacked together.

What do you think? Does this speak to ANYONE?
