Anyone have experience with Florida State University? I am moving to Tallahassee next month and also considering starting work on my master's in computer science and just curious if any of you could tell me a little about FSU.
Some software I used to develop had an option toggle the display on and off using a special keystroke while typing.
The reason we had to have this was that the software had been previously used at a mine and one of the employees there was so motivated to get out of the mine and into the office doing data entry that he taught himself to type extremely fast.
If we left the display enabled he was typing far ahead of the screen refresh (on wyse dumb terminals) and it was so distracting to him that he couldn't enter data at his regular typing speed. So, he would type with the display turned off and then hit the key combination again to turn it back on and read over what he had just typed.
I used to go to the gym and doing things like running a kilometre without any practice before hand isn't a problem
I don't know if I am misreading this or what but for me it takes more like 10K to really get in the zone. And I will admit that when I was first starting out, even short distances (1K) were difficult and there was no zone to be found.:P
Last I checked 511 will tell you your own phone number. It sounds silly, but it came in handy for me in college when they would often forget to tell us the phone numbers for our dorm rooms.
That number is handy, but I have to admit that the time I called the pizza place that I knew had caller id and asked them what my phone number was makes a lot better story!
NOTE: I just tried this on my home for and it worked. My phone company is CenturyTel.
I was thinking maybe it was just due to the fact that when they drank that much coffee they didn't drink so many sugar-loaded sodas to get their caffeine fix.
The summary is confusing, but from looking at askigor.com I think what it means is that you give it two sets of input, one that works and one that doesn't, and it executes the program both ways and tries to find the differences so you can look to those places as potential bugs.

Ask Leonard.
And even if there *were* poison dart weilding dolphins, why on earth would they be left armed while at a training facility during a storm?
:P
You have obviously never tried to disarm a poison dart weilding dolphin
My stereo type was: this guy
I misread your comment as saying something about "Girls gone wild" so that makes 2 of us.
Bill gates got one
Well.. I don't argue with the someone who quotes Kramer, VoidWraith. It's an argument you can't win!
for real?
Sorry, I had to stop reading at this point. Your post might be really important but it is just so cheaply priced that I can't take it seriously.
Fixed.

Yeah but notice which one of his posts got modded up :P
True story:

...sort of like when you make fun of some guy with a gold chain and a Firebird- sure he is an a--ho--, but he gets all the ladies....
Hmmmmm.... 'Ladies' isn't exactly the word I was thinking.
No argument on the rest of what you said, but the 'networking option' (Home Media Option) no longer costs extra.
Yeah I used to like Knight Rider but I watched an episode the other day and I was actually embarassed.

I personally call him "G-Dub". As in "G Dubya".

Sounds like you need to have your memory wiped!

We just made his job easier. There is one less web server to map now!
