but doing it statically, hard-coded like this is faster. You leave it to the compiler to determine the length of the arguments, rather than having to count them at run-time.
"The setup lowers Google's overseas tax bill, but it also affects U.S. tax revenues as the government struggles to close a projected $1.4 trillion budget gap."
It's a ridiculous notion that any single corporation's tax contribution will put even the slightest dent in the budget deficit. Government spending is like gas in a vacuum, it will expand to fill whatever space you give it.
But the US can actually reduce the gap by cutting down on wasteful spending (see Iraq and Afghanistan adventures). This should be a priority but alas our politicians love to spend and that applies to both sides.
I think this statistic is neither surprising nor problematic. Would you really expect more than 36% of the workforce to be frequently deserving of recognition? The job of management is not to give lip-service praise to all their employees.
I disagree -- if an employee is providing an indispensable contribution to the company, you need to be recognizing and praising them, or sooner or later they are going to stop contributing at a high level or jump to another opportunity.
And if an employee isn't providing an indispensable contribution, why are you still employing them? If 64% of your workforce isn't providing any value worth recognizing, your workforce is far too large.
Personally, I'm surprised that the 64% number is so low.
My calling, system administration, is definitely one where, the better I do my job, the less visible my work is, but it's easy to forget this is not the case for everyone else.
When I saw this headline I was wondering how they managed to get pictures from Antarctica, but looking at Google Maps, it just looks like a geotagged photo-album
I could be wrong, but it looks like it's used to create mini-sites, so being able to use Javascript seems more like a feature than an xss vulnerability.
I think the functionality is great, I especially like the data aggregation options that you provide.
That said, I think the design needs polish. This is nitpicky, but looking at the demo, there's no visual distinction between the time and the stopwatch types. Also, I'd suggest a more web-optimized font, Times New Roman looks, for lack of a better term, bleh

The Google Guava library does something similar, but not to this extent, only up to 12 args http://guava-libraries.googlecode.com/svn-history/r12/trunk/...
