comment How to asynchronously download 100000 urls in an efficient way
Before URLSaveAsynchronous I used Mathematica to monitor the performance of a ruby download script and change the number of threads to maximize performance. Now it should be possible to do all in Mathematica and take advantage of the advanced parser (patterns for XML) not found in other languages. I wish I had the time to work on this now.

comment PlotRange adjustments with BarChart
I don't want to be rude, but forcing the vertical axis to start at anything other than zero is misleading. See chapter 5 of "How to Lie with Statistics".

Thank you @JxB. I fell victim to the invisible scroll bars in Mac OS X.

comment Vertically aligning two separate plots
IMHO, this is one of the few things that is easier to do in MATLAB (using the subplot function) than in Mathematica. But make no mistake, I prefer Mathematica 1000 times over MATLAB.
