  1. Feel sorry for the temp. cleaners on ED-209 Patrols University · · Score: 1

    But Marvin will soon be learning for himself, so he doesn't need his creator. We just have to decide the level to which you want to get rid of humans.

    Hey mechanical dude, I'm just filling in for ...

  2. Would Unions stop burnout ? on Dial U for Union · · Score: 4

    Quick question for the midnight coders out there - how many years till you retire? Can you keep up this pace when your 30.. 40.. 50.. I'm not a great fan of Unions at the best of times, but it sucks the way some IT workers are expected to give up their lives for some company. If I'm going to burnout - I'll do it making ME rich, not my boss.

  3. Shooting themselves in the foot - again on Windows XP and Incompatibilities with Multi-Booting? · · Score: 1
