Your Worst IT Workshop?

suntory writes "I am a lecturer at a Spanish university. This week had to attend a workshop on 'Advanced HTML and CSS' for the university staff. Some of the ideas that the presenter (a fellow lecturer) shared with us: IE is the only browser that follows standards; frames and tables are the best way to organize your website; you can view the source for most CSS, Javascript and HTML files, so you can freely copy and paste what you feel like — the Internet is free you know; same applies for images, if you can see them in Google Images Search, then you can use them for your projects. Of course, the workshop turned out to be a complete disaster and a waste of time. So I was wondering what other similar experiences you have had, and what was your worst IT workshop?"

    It's, "He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."

    See here. My personal favorite adds, "he who cannot teach, writes books."

    France is experiencing riots because Muslim immigrants want to turn France into a shit hole just like the country they left.

    When was the last time there was a christian wingnut trying to kill an abortion doctor? When that did happen some time back, religious leaders denounced the actions. I can easily post dozens of muslim terrorist attacks in the last week alone. Please point me to a single religious based attack by any other religion in the past week? Just one. The only thing I can find was an attack by some deranged nut job against christians. This was an anti-religious attack.

    And fyi, I am not a christian.
