I don't know of a single ABS system that is engaged by monitoring brake fluid. They all are driven by the ABS ring (a sprocket) on the rotor, unit bearing or hub bearing, at the wheels.
if low brake fluid is screwing with your ABS unit you have a much bigger problem than low fluid level.

You mean like bringing home hookers, guns, or anything similar that might lead them to a fruitful career?
Defensive, much? Maybe something like tradeable sports cards, a lathe and furnace for smelting, screen printing tools, golf clubs? The list of cool stuff a kid could get geeked on is endless, but I enjoyed how you went straight to possibilities that carry to some serious negative connotations.
For the record, I see nothing wrong with bringing a gun home if you show the children to respect it. I would encourage this practice, actually.
I worked at MS for over a year and it was just painful. I watched amazingly talented people get ignored and shut down while complete idiots kept getting to ship stupid products riddled with bugs. Test teams would cry 'show stopper' because a p1 bug wasn't fixed but a PM would ignore this serious flaw and make their ship date (or 2nd ship date).
I'm not trying to speak maliciously; I have nothing against the people I worked with. They're nice, intelligent people but they are not high quality coders or testers, or PMs. That is why you get such god awful products being released.
Just look @ the new version of Messenger - they do a lazy fetch for contact pictures even right after installing it. Who in their right mind would ship such an obvious flaw if the fix takes 10 minutes?
Great excuse to get rid of dead weight but it will be damn tough to carve them out.
Let's say that 20% of the shipping cost goes toward fuel and 70% goes to labor, the rest goes to paying off the ship, container rental, etc. Sounds reasonable.
Fixed that for you. Remember, using American longshoreman to unload.
Sorry, but we Germans have earned quite a reputation of going large-scale berzerk in the last centuries and every neighbouring country of us has suffered from it.
Exactly. You worked hard for that reputation, so you earned it. I'd hate it if you had to start all over again. (Particularly since I'm one of those neighbours.)
As an American let me say - please, go berzerk on your neighbors! We could use the opportunity to improve our global image doing what we do best - freeing the shit out of people!
1/3 of the that company is a lethargic, inept test department. If you can actually do testing well they push you to be a dev. Test managers get no respect and find the ladder doesn't reach as high as a dev or pm's ladder.
It frustrated me to no end to work with the testers there. Having to explain what my code does everytime I submit a patch, explaining something in a meeting and then two more times in person, the ridiculous amount of redundant emails that you have to forward to the same people over, and over...ugh.
Until MS fixes it's test department (part of this will be getting devs and pms to respect test) your question will ring loudly to me and many other ex-employees, as well as those who remained.
If nothing else, having a significant percentage of the population armed and trained gives pause to an oppressive regime which would use force against it's citizens.
So I would also like to remind slashdoters that the entire world is hoping that we don't end up with an american president who believes that the earth is 6000 years old and who believes that living a few hundred miles away from siberia gives you foreign policy experience.
I am ignorant right now, forgive me, but are there quotes proving that McCain thinks the world is 6000 years old or that Palin thinks she has foreign policy experience? Or are these just rumors?
Yea, I'll agree with that to an extent.
I wouldn't mind a system where you cannot vote unless you pay taxes and can prove you have some sort of knowledge of the items on the bill. If you have no knowledge of the bills and none of your money is going towards them under what logic should you be able to dictate where another person's taxes go?
I'm not saying literacy tests should be required (voter intimidation), nor you have to own land (this would exclude a lot of lower class and even some middle class). Hell, I'd drop the voting age to as soon as you get a job!
Possibly because MS has 65,000+ employees and the majority of them all type on a keyboard. I knew a few people while working there who had hand and tendon problems from typing too much. Believe it or not, the company actually cares quite a bit about its employees.
MS researches ergonomics FOR its employees.

Sir, your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

got a link to back this stat up?
Somebody needs to do something about Samzenpus and the garbage he puts out.
Let's string him up!
What's really sad is even with a Depression no one cares enough to do that.

I'll take a stab at the math.

Wow, that took even less time than it did for us Americans!
How many people do we know ho complain every day about their
It's generally a good idea to spell check something before you copy and paste it.
choose wisely
I agree! Shoot the poor!
What QA?

I so very wish I had mod points. Good catch, I feel less the patriot for not having noticed myself.

until they eliminate your right to be armed.
Odd note, but monkeys seem to have a preference for holding down the s key on american keyboard layouts.
Apparently, grad students will write a thesis about anything...

It's hypocritical because you are slamming someone for not having compassion while you, yourself, do not have compassion for them.
why isn't this money being spent on something more important? It's just hair!
I think you have confused squealing with laughing.

These poor folks have over a thousand giant Dewars to keep cold! Give them a break.
Why should we give them a break when they have that much cold scotch?
They sound too dumb to be yanks. Maybe they were Canadians who accidentally moved too far South?
Unless that's the lobby of a church I doubt he'd be labeled a mass murderer.
zing!
