No, I don't need language to think, I only need it to communicate.
And then I choose the one that fits the situation; sometimes Me sounds better than this.

Based on the Language, Thought, and Culture class I took back in college, language may indeed be required for thought.

No it isn't, unless you drastically redefine "language". Language to me is a set of conventions shared by two or (probably many) more people so they can communicate. I don't need that to think, in fact thinking by language would needlessly slow down most thoughts.
Not proof, however some indication:
- do you take notes (words, symbols, drawings) nobody understands? do you doodle?
- are you ever searching for a word? doesn't that tell you you have a thought and don't now right away how to communicate it? (yes, you could describe it in a sentence, but that is not how the brain works, it does not wait for the right word)
- how does a language get new words?

Is that a scam or something? Why are they mirroring the whole site?

Yeah I'm back with the pins but it's a different one now
When pinning a sticky post the background of the pin icon isn't drawn in yellow as the sticky's background is.
It's drawn in the blueish color as if it was a normal post.

Finally found the time to fix this one. Will update the code tomorrow.

Reputation graphs don't seem to be displaying right now. Tried mine and some other member's. Just shows the little circular progress bar for a second, then a white image.

T&T URLs tend to contain a 5-digit number, what the heck is it? it's different for different authors, even for different T&T's from the same author???

It's the ID of the article representing the Tip n Trick.

As a follow on to Luc's question, there does not seem to be any way of linking my published T&T to my home page, in the way normal articles are linked. Is this likely to change, or have I missed something?
|

|

This will absolutely be fixed.

which begs the question: why do T&Ts get such number in their URL and regular articles don't?
