Dilemmas...
Springer49: A group of us think it would be funny to go to a fast food place for Prom but 3 people think it is dumb and want to go to a fancy restaurant! But my date thinks it's dumb but I don't!...
Go with my date and do what she wants to do while being bored out of my mind? leads over
Go with the fun group and tell my date that I will meet her at the dance? (63 days ago)
ianyh: I have two offers for summer internships from interesting startups in San Francisco. One of them would probably involve Java and Python and developing for mobile platforms and the other would involve Java and Ruby and mostly involve web development. Both seem pretty cool, but my interest is tipping slightly towards the former, but the latter is offering better immediate compensation---the former is offering me comparable compensation over a longer span of time....
Go for the things I think I would perhaps enjoy hacking on more, but possibly not get paid until the end of next year. leads over
Go for the immediate pay off, and probably still end up doing interesting things. (68 days ago)

ozymandias: I have been married for about three years. One and a half months ago, my wife told me that she has fallen in love with a married co-worker and committed adultery. Initially, she was less than completely honest with me and continued to be in contact with the other man. It was only after one month that she told me the complete truth and agreed to go for counseling. She said the reasons for counseling is not to actually work on our marriage, but to help explain to me why it happened. At this moment, she still wants to be with the other guy because she believes he is THE ONE.
We have been in counseling for about two weeks now. She tells me she has fallen out of love for me for quite some time now. She recognizes that I have nothing but a good and loving husband towards her. She recognizes she has a big role in not maintaining the romance in our relationship. She says she's sorry for hurting me. But she also says that she does not apologize for falling in love. She says it just happened.
I am now in a fix. She believes counseling will help me understand why it happened better. Maybe forgive her. And she claims there is a 1% chance she may overcome her impulsiveness and decide to work on our marriage. But I am finding it extremely painful to continue. Especially with all her declarations that she no longer loves me and she loves the other man. I don't know if I can ever forgive the betrayal. Being a rational man, I find it hard to accept that things can just happen and that she can totally disrespect me in this manner....
Just accept that she no longer loves me and divorce her. Ending the misery of hearing she doesn't love me and begin moving on with the rest of my life. leads over
Continue with the counseling, however painful it is right now, so that I can "understand her" and on the extremely slim chance that she will want to work on our marriage and it may survive. (102 days ago)
D4V1D: I'm bi and like this guy in my German class. I have hints he's bi and that may even like me. I want to tell him I'm bi, but I don't want to scare him away and ruin our current friendship....
Should I go ahead and tell him him leads over

...and decisions
I picked
Kindle DX
over
Strida 5.0 (5 days ago)
Had an upcoming plane trip, so went with the Kindle; useful both on the plane and for carrying things like the stanford campus map without having to find a printer, and oh yeah it's good for books :-)
lakmiseiru: Thinking about digital cameras. I've never owned a digicam, only film cameras. I'm a landscape/outdoors photography person (not portraits/indoors stuff), and when on trips have tended to shoot 3-4 rolls per 1-2 week trip (and generally been sad about how little I could shoot). Problem is, I need a camera... and testing by carrying one around only sort of works given my desire for landscape photography in Boston :^)...
I decided to do
Something else rather than
Get a cheap point-and-shoot to use until I figure out exactly what I want or
Do some serious research, save up, and get something more expensive (SLR, different lenses, etc)
(24 days ago)
I ended up with a Canon G10, which is like a small SLR without the big shiny lens or, well, actual single lens reflex. Its glass is still quite respectable, and all the tweaks than an SLR has (manual focus, shutter and aperture priority, etc) are there. It's a bit bigger than a "normal" point and click, but not too big to carry. I'm a fan.
jasonmay: I want to upload a Perl module to CPAN that is Penn State related. What namespace should I use?...

over
