If someone told me to make the check payable to Myron Tereshchuk, I would immediately suspect an enemy of Myron Tereshchuk. Turns out they had other evidence though.
That first paragraph is a little misleading. The author makes it sound like the material cost to produce a PC is the same as it is to build a car. He's actually comparing the raw materials needed for a PC to the final weight of a car. Confused me for a while.
Can't view it. Seems to be a jpg though. There's an extra + on the first line but removing it doesn't help.
One Rule For 90% of Bugs

4. Divide and conquer: Narrow the search with successive approximation, get the range, determine which side of the bug you're on, use easy-to-spot test patterns, start with the bad, fix the bugs you know about, and fix the noise first.
That's a very usueful rule. In nearly 20 years of programming I haven't found any tool or technique that works better than printf / std::cout / MessageBox and logging.
Logging is especially important if your users aren't conveniently in the same building as you. When a customer has a problem I've never seen before, I usually tell them to run the program with the -log switch and send me the log. Nearly always this leads to the problem and I can fix the bug within minutes.
Add logging to your app and you'll increase the number of hours you can sleep.
A year ago I was laid off from my job after 2 1/2 years, shortly after the product I was working on shipped.
Took a sabbatical after successfully shipping the product.
Later that year, a company moved me 1500 miles from Texas to California, to start working on a promising project, just to have the plug pulled by the corporation that funded it five weeks later, which resulted in another layoff.
Helped guide a failed project to a close with minimal loss to the company.
Now, there's a period of job seeking followed by a five week period of employment, followed by the current job seeking period on my resume.
Took time to improve skills and consider various job opportunities.
I just searched my IMPP email folder and noticed Jabber was mentioned as far back as 1999 and a link to the Jabber protocol description was posted in 2000. The question now is whether to laugh or cry.
A game called Ethnic Cleansing was recently named the most offensive game in history. The objective is to kill as many minorities as possible. Since this is legal, I doubt GTA can be banned.
I hate this whole movement. Using computers should become EASIER. Who wants tired arms from searching on the computer or back pain from moving files? I'd prefer to do this stuff with a click of a mouse button.

QBHBFINIIZ. Nope. I give up.
Could a person wear something like this? Imagine cutting bills by turning off the central air and wrapping this around you while you work.
I can't remember which episode. It was a good line though.
Doh. That didn't post right.

Yes, that's right.
Invest in encryption products.

Maybe they mean the dark rings.
Ah. I didn't notice the semicolon. It's a face with tongue sticking out.

It looks surprised to see the spacecraft.

It's weird. Seems like everyone who writes about UI design has a web site that violates the rules.
Gah! I found out too late. It's at about 16 minutes into the video:
Due to the proprietary nature of the content in our program, we must temporarily suspend the video and audio portion of our broadcast.
Normal program will resume in a few moments.
Those rascals!
Kasparov: pwned!
Programmer: No way! Look at my ping. It was lag!

A lot of people believed the alien autopsy tapes.

Does UNATCO know about this?
