It's intentional but doesn't signify anything. Just a "fun" effect.

So just a question, but is the tilt to the user profile a random thing or does it have some meaning? I like the effect, just saw it and wondered...

Ah, which cult to join? Which cult to join?
I 'started with computers' around 1967 on an IBM 360/45 at RPI and had to drill down to pseudo-assembly language to debug some otherwise-trivial programming problems. One of my close friends found a bug in IBM's compiler. :)

After that, 'out in the world,' I went from teletype-driven time sharing, where I was doing distribution graphs and intersections of them using the little X's to plot them out.

Then came a Calcomp plotter hooked to a 16-bit mini from HP and then HP x-y plotters driven by cpus with core memory (the little metal donut kind!)

Some years later, after BASIC on an HP 'calculator,' I learned DOS from the machine language up so I've cut my teeth on MS products since then and familiarity can breed contempt as well as... familiarity.

But I was also a Chevy Man until GM drove me away into the arms of Toyota.

MS has been a thorn in my side for years, but I'm also familiar with a lot of its shortcomings and have some MS-expert friends to bail me out when the software gets deeper than I'm tall.

Most recently I've discovered that Wells-Fargo and MS IE8 do not get along well, and between W/F and MS, the workaround has been Chrome.

But again, it's another learning curve that I'm just not eager to climb right now. We'll see what happens in the future, but late this year I turn 70, and there's the old story about old dogs and tricks... I've learned a lot of new tricks in my life, but at some point a nice nap is more rewarding.

:)))))))))))))

And Palemoon is a souped up version of Firefox, by Firefox.

Thanks again for catching it plusaf. Unfortunately the pause is necessary for the solution to work. It's an IE specific issue and just one of the many reasons why so many have abandoned IE altogether and switched to Chrome or Firefox. Hint, hint. ;)

Looks ok on my machine now. I've seen a similar effect when image load when scrolling down a page with a mouse wheel or paging down with the page-down button.

There's a bit of a pause, but now the 'cards' become visible without having to mouse-over.

cheers and Congrats! Good job!

Thanks for starting this. I still can't believe that I am the only member on St Thomas. And, according to the search results, I am not a member either, since the search total is zero.

I agree with the need for members not in the ZIP code system to have a way of being in the database.

I would like to see other things in the results, if approved by each member: (1) whether the person considers himself an objectivist or not, (2) age, (3) sex, (4) marital status, (5) availability (looking for ...), (6) email address, just to name a few that come to mind.

Well, I used M$ from DOS2, and spent a fortune on their stuff. I got more work done way back then than I ever managed with Windoze, which versions usually died with BSOD, so No More(!) for the last 4-5 years now.
Free Linux distros come with very good software and accomplish most everything well in similar ways -- the only exceptions I've run into is poorer CAD and more difficult graphics apps, so Linux has Wine to run those M$-type apps.
And then Firefox is drastically better than IE. So that's my happy choice.
But this is WAY off-subject!

1. Wider area than 100 miles; previous response list (e.g. reply) and mailing list (e.g. the last guys that showed interest); Atheist Gulchers, Christian Gulchers; Constitutionalists; Anarchists...etc
2. Yes, one could figure out what zip codes to put in to expand the search beyond 100 miles, and make a few messages. However, one would rather have the computer the yeoman's work.
3. Didn't try to send a message yet.

I just put in a potential fix. Do me a favor please and test when you have a minute and let me know if it's still exhibiting the same behavior. Thanks again.

Browserist in the Gulch! Shocking! What law has been broken?

I tried it several ways. As a technical writer, I test software all the time. I can see myself on a general search by Points. None of the ZIP Code searches worked, no matter how I framed them. It is just as well. Ayn Rand meet-ups are easy to find when you want one.

RE: "below the first row, most of the time the detail under the avatar image of each card does not show"

Good catch. Looking into it now. Thanks plusaf.

What's your zip?

SERIOUSLY. Dean. C'mon!

We'll look into it. But... in the meantime, you may want to try and operating system and browser combo used here on Earth.

Just kidding. But not really. ;)

ok, it's probably an artifact of IE11, but below the first row, most of the time the detail under the avatar image of each card does not show its content until after I mouseover.

Next, "Next" at the bottom of the page should probably have another copy near the top of the page for navigation, AND the proverbial "this is page x of N pages" with the option of going directly to page Z would probably help, too.

"Next" isn't fun if you don't know whether there are three or three hundred pages behind the one you're viewing...

:)

Google Chrome on the Mac: nope.

It still does not work for me. I have updated my profile a couple of times, entering the same information. The search does not find me. It does return people I know from the area.

I tried it on a Mac with Safari; then went to Chrome on the Mac.

Characters in the book don't seem to have seen it that way; JG himself took a menial job on Dagny's railroad, and presumably paid taxes.

What he insisted on was not letting the enemy (system) have the fruits of his mind. In other words, no creative job unless it's within the Gulch.

Excellent!!!

It worked for me, but within 100 miles of my zip I did not find folks with whom I regularly interacted in The Gulch. I used to travel a lot for business, though I do not do this any more. But I do like the fact that I could put my destination zip in the field and find possible meet-ups in another place.

Okay, I found it now, I didn't look hard enough before. Thanks.........

Good point, Hash. “paying a minimal amount to a government that doesn't engage in mass illegal surveillance, aggressive wars for no reason, massive imprisonment of innocent people for victimless crimes, torture, etc. etc. that the USSA does, is way better, and doesn't really contribute to the problem.”

Probably way better, ‘tho it DOES contribute to the problem of the myth that we need the State … and principle of the less onerous tax is the same as the more onerous one … they’re all theft.

And yes, not only is the “progressive Income Tax a penalty on productivity that penalizes the more productive more stiffly”, it’s also a massive invasion of privacy in which the State thugs demand information from us subjects that we wouldn’t share with our closest friends.
