  1. Another VBscript Bug on Pet Bugs? · · Score: 1

    As every programmer knows, it's good practice to use implicit cast statements. Well, Vbscript's Cstr function (and all the other type converting functions) returns an error a big ugly error instead of just returning a empty string. For god's sake why did they gave that function such stupid behavior.

  2. "Trust is the foundation ..." on Verisign Sending Deceptive Domain Renewal Mail? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Yep, taken from the Verisign homepage:

    " Trust is the foundation of every human relationship "

    They probably forgot the *: Only applies when you owe us money ;-)

  3. He overclocked his Ferrari on Buy John Romero's Ferrari On EBay · · Score: 1

    Excerpt from the Time Digital

    "His 1991 Ferrari Testarossa is outfitted with a nitrous tank for an extra burst of speed."

    Looks like overclocking to me ;-)

  4. Re:The sooner N4 dies with a spike through its hea on Red Hat: Who Needs Netscape? · · Score: 1

    At our company, when we create a neat looking & dynamic website, we first start with the IE version compatible with 5.0+ (our stats say 85% use 5.0+).

    When that part is finished, we have to make it compatible with Netscape & those Mozilla thingies. I really, really hate that part of the design progress.

    Its very irritating work because ie5 can do a bunch of flashy things that is possible, but very different programmatically in Netscape / Mozilla and most of all: it costs a lot of money! We can give our customers about 20 % discount if we just target ie50.

    And most of all: my colleagues & me stay Sane ;-)
