I reckon some sort of BBQ sauce will work a treat - it'll make you love going to work
the answer is probably some sort of active carbon air freshner to absorb the smell. just stick loads of the stuff around and it'll absorb the smell.
The people i know that are happiest are those who help others - doctors, physios,...
it must be great to see your work have a positive affect on other peoples lives. i mean ok there are computer jobs that you can do this in but normally we are so far away from the coal face that we dont see the impact technology has
i sometimes think i should retrain as in this area. maybe i will
its great to see the effects of free markets on the world - open up IT and we get a drift of jobs to areas that will provide the resource for cheaper - brilliantly simple economics!
now as i see it IT is just a start - soon we can have other areas of business transfered overseas where costs are lower - so lets hope the directors/board members of these companies see sense in their logic and resign in favour of cheaper developing world labour. surely their share holders deserve it;-)
i hardly see how this is free to inhabitants of the uk - we have to pay a tv licence fee which basically funds the bbc. and all we get is bloody repeats and abismal tv programs in an organisation run as a toy by the middle class
in my opinion the bbc shouldnt even be online - the name itself is british BROADCASTING corporatation - the web is narrowcast! in many ways the current bbc online presence is stiffling innovation as people cant compete with such a pervasive organisation
im getting a bit sick of the whole ms bad, linux good rubbish!
i run ms at work and on some machines at home with few problems - and considering the wide range of configurations that ms runs under 5% failure rate sounds pretty much ok - most websites i know fail on more than 5% of browsers!
i love the open source concept - it produces great code based around the best concepts, but i also accept the reality of the market and admire microsoft for getting people to pay for software - and boy do they pay
i think it depends on the situation. the company i currently works for insists on unit tests and loads of documentation for even the simplest of enhancements. no consideration goes into whether this change will increase revenue or what the impact of the change failing would be. as a result we have ended up with systems looking like products of a communist state!
previously companies i have worked for have been willing to let developers advise on what they think the best approach would be so there would be a mix of top quality on areas that make revenue, and those that dont - a much more sane approach, and these are the companies i have worked for that still exist
the influence of science and computing on sport is a very interesting scientific topic and i think very suitable for slashdots forums.
modern sport is so scientific and technical these days that if some of these readers creating noise on this list actually made an effort to read the good mailings then they might learn something
If mozilla is open source then why doesnt someone extend it to support these new types of tags, or better still come up with better, groovier mozilla html tags to fight back?
I cant imagine the majority of linux types i know racing to support the linux desktops in there organisation. Telling a user to read the man pages doesnt suffice in most businesses

considering how rubbish episode 1 and 2 were (with the exception of yoda), i think appearing in episode 3 could be more embarrasing!
