No disrespect to the MythBusters, but if they could figure it out, plenty of others will also.

It sure is a good thing the credit card companies were able to prevent this from getting out; otherwise we might be talking about these security problems on/. and that would be bad.
It just seems bizarre to me how many people think it's normal to give out their password to family/friends/partners/whatever. I've never revealed a password to anyone in my life and never will, and my really important ones get changed regularly. Is that really so terribly unusual?
They asked me for my social security number and date of birth to verify I was the person they meant to call and told me they'd be getting back to me real soon.
I thought we were doing it in alphabetical order, but obviously not.
When I was in high school so many years ago, I spent a couple of summer weeks in Europe on one of those tours that shows you everything you can see from a bus. On the flight up to JFK (the one in New York) for our departure to Brussels, one of my classmates commented on how much she was looking forward to visiting Austria. Now I have nothing against Austria, and it turned out to be the country where one of my most memorable experiences on the trip occurred, but at the time I could not imagine why a high school student from North Carolina would have any particular reason to look forward to being in Austria. Maybe she liked mountains. So I asked.
She was looking forward to the accent. I was impressed. To this day I don't think I would be able to distinguish an Austrian from a German by accent.
Well, you could always create a single-table database. Call the single table "Stuff," put a generic autoincrementing key on it, and give it two more columns: a type identifier and a serialized object that contains all the data.
Jeff, is that you?
I just finished my first 10 months in my new job and already I've discovered that we have TWO of these tables. They are in different databases, otherwise we'd only need the one. (I crack me up. I wrote "need.") One isn't quite so clearly insane as the other, but that's only because it is so cleverly disguised.
I had that meeting myself, but I just used my inside voice. It sort of branched off during the one-on-one meeting when I was informed that I wasn't on the bad list, but I wasn't on the good list, either. Using my inside voice, I had my own meeting in which I discovered that
I don't know what all the fuss is about. The only tricky part about your OSS class is how strict its terms on. Some OSS classes will only have public:protected: sections. Of course, with multi-licensing, your OSS class can have both public: and protected: sections. But you have to carefully read the fine print if you want to derive any private classes from it.
Snark aside, this really isn't an issue where you should be guided by ancedotal evidence posted to Slashdot. You're working for a Fortune 100 company, for crying out loud--you need a carefully-planned methodology, not a bunch of yammering 'experts' giving you off-the-cuff advice on a very complex problem...
I used to work for a Fortune 50 company, where these types of decisions were evidently often made based on which vendor had the cutest sales staff.
# If it's worked, your card should now work. If it hasn't, your laptop is probably dead.
In this world of ambiguous gray areas, number fudging and touchy-feely subjectivism, I find comfort that I can still definitely know that I have royally screwed something up and void my warranty while doing so.

Heck, we were using pre 802.11N stuff back in the late 80s. It was so 'pre' it would only work reliably if you plugged the other ends of the antenna into other machines in your network.

Sorry about the misunderstanding. I thought you tried to send me to Cuba.
Cuba, Canada. There's a difference?

What are you? Some kind of mutant?

Big deal. How long did it take to load?

We're sure to find an enormous nebula of chlorofluorocarbons somewhere in the vicinity.
Well, who's going to open the box and find out if the dolphins are dead or if they're cats?

- they weren't on the good one

I just have to ask: If you believe there is no blackhole, does that make you an aholist?
Well, that was before Jar-jar and mitocondria came along.
