Excellent image! OT: was just thinking of the New Horizons probe, a bit more than a month away from hopefully cool (pun intended) Pluto pics.

If you drive people around all day but they don't pay you, would you have nothing to chauffeur it?

That sucks, they really auto pay you.
Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.

"There Yugo never again!" would be more realistic

I was hoping to steer clear of this pun-drive.

Do we really need to be referred to articles that contain phrases such as "badass motherfucking sorcerer-hacker wizard-god" or "interviews in the Valley have truly gotten f***ing awful"? [I didn't star out "uck", it was done by the Lounge input editor!]
I was in the US Coast Guard. We didn't hesitate to use coarse language amongst ourselves. But its use was with other Coast Guardsmen, not the general public.
I doubt strongly that articles containing this language would be published in any reputable publication: in a peer reviewed publication or in a newspaper or in a book. I also doubt that these phrases could be used in a business meeting without reprimand.
I'm in no way a prude. But this is use of foul language was for shock purposes only. It added nothing to the value of the article. As a matter of fact, I stopped reading when I came across the phrases.
I find the Code Project Insider useful in that it presents me with articles that are useful. Mostly, I read for entertainment. Sometimes for their newsworthiness. But if this trend continues, I fear that I will cancel my subscription to the Code Project Insider and read more carefully the BBC articles on Tech and Science.

I'd suggest that this should be raised in Sugs.n.Bugs[^] - Chris can look and reprimand / comment as necessary.

I'd raise this in the Sugs and Bugs forum. I do agree with you on this, but the sugs/bugs forum is the place to let the powers that be know of your discontent.

Are you referring to the article where Kent's comment said, "Caution: uses strong language"?
Was that not sufficient warning that the linked article might contain strong language?
"These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined."

Yes.
However it is not so much an issue that a warning was given; rather the issue is that a warning was needed.

That sounds more like a problem with the author of the article than a problem with Code Project.

Come on! The author apparently believes that his language was acceptable for its shock value.
The Daily Insider needs to remember its readers' sensibilities and honor them to a much greater extent.
Dissemination was a decision by Code Project, not the author.
