One of my favourite speedruns, Portal Done Pro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1U5RUVENNE
Gets interesting at 3 mins. There's also an explanatory series.

Agreed, they're simple to use, even the 2 lane varieties.
I think the problem is as mentioned, often American ones are much different. It seems more like a free for all circle with a random bunch of roads exiting and entering, with no lanes marked. Also construction obscured the view to the left.
I did come across a few "normal" roundabouts at least, but they either don't exist or are terrible.

Maybe Valve have finished HL3, and are releasing a bunch of things to try out (F2P economy, marketplaces, trading cards, community upgrades, steambox), then if any have heavy backlash, they can just say "Shh guys, here's HL3".

This might be useful for contracts, as well. Editing points and having history, being able to comment on specific parts etc.
Not 100% sure on how to solve the "legally binding" part if the other party declines digital signatures, but it'd be a good way to get the contract written and agreed on.

How much savings did you have? I'm considering doing the same at some point, though my quick glance at index funds makes it seem like I'd get basically nothing. What sort of budget does this afford you?

My least favourite are product titles that are completely unrelated to the use (which is fine), but when titles are modified, it becomes completely pointless:
"Goose - A JS library for 3D graphics" --> "Goose"
Yeah thanks guys.

Can I emphasize the use of code samples right on the homepage?
As an example, Requests (http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/). If you've ever done URL fetching in Python you can immediately see the value and cleanliness of it.
A couple of projects I've come across don't have anything like it, and only have more of an API reference. I understand it may be early days and documentation hasn't yet been a priority, but I really love to see the advantages of the library, particularly if you compare it to the old way of doing things.

If it helps, this type of problem has come up precisely zero times ever. Use a built in function, loop through the array, and if in the future it's running slow, _then_ optimise

Yeah in my experience "going responsive" is only one step. I did this for http://rugbydump.com (partly still in progress).
There's a lot of `if (IS_MOBILE)` around the place, to not download a large amount of extra stuff on mobiles.
