I had precisely the same discussion yesterday with a new client. She didn't understand how our web application did not have a larger list of system requirements. She started repeating the situation in a louder, slower manner to help me understand.

I couldn't imagine a better competition. I am utterly elated, as a junior developer, to have Stack Overflow as a resource as well as to see it knocking at Expert Exchanges' door.

Even with added traffic, the conversion rate (visitors/buyers) given the tribute and no products on the front page has to be extremely low. Low enough that I tend to believe they are losing money for the sake of this.

Don't doubt it, they are losing a significant portion of revenue-generating space on a commercial website in order to pay tribute to a fallen friend.

Consumerist propaganda? I can't imagine many people taking it that seriously. I do, in fact, buy new underclothes every 2-3 months only because I prefer the unworn feel. I'm sure many would agree. Looks like a startup with a not-so-novel idea, but a nice ordering interface and hopefully nice ordering process that will succeed.

No, I don't believe most women see a correlation between brains and money. I believe they see a correlation of displays of wealth and money. Duh.

Another big guy reporting in. I tried a few different dress shirts and professional pants before I found one fit/type of each that I stuck with religiously. I used to have anxiety about clothes shopping, specifically for professional dress. Almost every article of clothing didn't fit well because of my belly. After finding 1 type of each (as mentioned in an earlier reply), I've never been happier with my wardrobe.

" Express's 1MX shirts are a solid choice (http://bit.ly/cXBvxS) and very popular for this type of role."

Totally agreed. I dress semi-professional for work, and soon in decided that my entire work wardrobe would consist of Express 1MX shirts (non-fitted, non-bright colors) and black, standard fit, flat front Dockers.
