  3. Re:Finding a geek wife on Girls Don't Want To Be Geeks · · Score: 1

    The problem isn't finding a geek wife, but finding her geek husband and getting him out of the way...

    Oh.

    My girlfriend is into genetics pretty hard core... she's a bit of a computerphobe, but I love her anyway... She knows HTML, due to a "networking" class that she accidentally took... Now if only I could slip in some C instruction into some casual conversation... heh... she loves to say "When god created man, he gave him two heads, and only enough blood to power one at a time.", so one day, I had to prove her wrong... wrote up a PHP script (albiet a very basic one) while she sat on my lap, wearing a nice short skirt of hers... I'll leave the details to your imagination...

    On the topic, I know plenty of geek grrls... Know a few that are better coders than me... Unlike most of the geek guys I know, I don't feel a need to compete with them on the grounds that they don't have a Y chromosome... They call geek guys sexist because of this. Understandable. When I ask them for help, I'm suddenly 'hitting on them' (I'm not. I'm not even vaguely interested in them. I've got a beautiful girlfriend that I love more than the world, and I hardly even notice other chicks...) Who's sexist??

    If you get into court, say that you edited it in a text editor, and compiled it in codewarrior...

    Come on, the page was updated on May 11, 2000! that's practically yesterday! Slashdot can't of already had a post on it...

  9. Re:Hyperbole. on Is The x86 Obsolete? · · Score: 1

    My unkle drives a Ford Model T. That car, by anybody else's definition, is obselete. But, since SOMEBODY drives a model t, by your definition, it is not obselete.
    My server runs PHP v3.0.12, and PHP4 has been out for months. PHP3 is obsolete by anybody's definition but yours.
    Your definition, by anybody's definition, is obselete? No, because it was never correct.
    Redeeming qualities of the x86 -- everybody else is doing it, and is easily available. Redeeming qualities of smoking -- everybody else is doing it, and smokes are easily available. the moral? don't smoke, don't use x86 processors.

    Hold still, boy, while i smack you...

    Really... you're serious? that would be SO expensive... and having to encode, address, send, resolve the address, yadda yadda, decode, interpret every single instruction sent to the CPU, and then the response???? christ! that's ridiculous!!!
    my car can go about 200 MPH. to get going that fast, i have to put my foot to the floor for a minute or so... packets STILL need to be processed and sent... they don't just immediately get there...
    other than that, great idea... universal connectors would be nice...

    The Dr. Bechly article was already done... over a week ago... maybe if you read articles, instead of bitching so much, you'd know this.
