Yes, it looks like all premium accounts can live in a bubble of their own

We used to glow radioactively...
...so I guess we needed to be contained for safety reasons!

So Chris Maunder said "Let there be code on Codeproject", and the Premium coders stepped up and everyone could see that it was extremely usful...

Who's we in this setting? US-full? although useful makes more sense.

The non-premium members. "usful" = "premium members". It's a poor joke/jibe.

Well you learn something new every day. I didn't know it could mean so many things.
I had forgotten about the currency in The Algebraist (that novel was quite interesting).
In this case it obviously means the hamsters each get a granola bar.

What the heck is premium membership and why don't I automatically get one?

I really don't know, but I got one and I didn't pay for it. One day it was just there, and I didn't ask for it or anything.

Same here.
This happened to all the people who tested Workspaces while it was still in closed beta - so I think it's some sort of thank-you bonus.

Any way I can get in on such beta-testing?

where am I gong to get my St Agur fix? That creamy, nutty, deep, unctuous, orgasm of a blue cheese that it is.
So I wandered around a local supermarket and saw some! But it was super steep. Then I noticed some 'Amish Blue' beside it. Not sure if it is a piss take of 'Danish Blue' but at the price, being less than half the St Agur, I gave it a try. And it is delicious. Almost like a St Agur crossed with a less salty Roquefort, so its slightly harder, and a bit drier in taste, but has all the nuttiness and most of the creamyness of St Agur.
So, my steak recipe. Fry up the steak, then when done chuck a bit of water and stock in the pan to deglaze it. Then add cream, a fair bit, and a big dollop of blue cheese, Amish Blue. Cook it till the pungency of the cheese is driven off and its ready.
Utterly delicious.
Naming suggestions anyone for this dish?

Heathen! Steak au roquefort[^]
Seriously though, the St Agur sauce is superb! Don't knock it till you have tried it!

Well, I guess if I had to eat French steaks, perhaps I'd need to cover up the taste, too. Here, our steaks taste quite good and we don't need to hide the natural taste.

Actually I fond US steak a bit lacking in flavor. It might be tender, but its a bit bland.

Ummm, "cheese steak?"
While I love a good steak, and the only salad dressing I order is bleu cheese, they don't belong on the same plate. Deglaze the pan with a good merlot, and saute some portabello shrooms in it for a topping, by all means, but don't ruin the meat with cheese. Order a cheeseburger instead, if you must.
