Yeah, I know how it can be fun, but not much gets done during those times. There is the "team building" concept in such situations to be considered though.
Thanks for the reply, I'm now going to go in on a Saturday! [you bastard]
Does it appear to you that people are getting dumber as a reult of having "smart" systems do things for them? By this I mean that people rely more on the intelligence built-in to the software and don't even bother to question the output.
In any technical-type, thinking job, working lots of overtime usually resolves to:
- wants to get away from home life (pesky wife and kids)
- no life (nothing better to do)
- greed (gotta get that Hummer)
- one-upmanship on fellow workers ("you slackers, I was here 14 hours yesterday!")
- many hours spent wastefully (anything beyond 8-9/day is not productive)
I feel your pain. As a colour-blind individual myself, I tend towards blacks and grays also as this helps me to not make a fashion mistake in the eyes of my peers.
"mcuban" [cough-cough], couldn't you get one of your paid assistants to at least break your thoughts down into paragraphs for you? This is a site with high standards for concise writing and adherence to grammaticle conventions.
There's an enormous entry this year: 44 competitors from 29
countries, all with weak bladders, ready for the world's longest
race and just aching to go!
[The starter's pistol goes off, and the competitors all go for the toilet.]
I am saddened by this new "tubes" analogy. If it was still termed 'piping' I might have made a lot of money by leasing my domain names. Oh, well, back to the drafting board for me.
Cheers.

I agree.

It's just artificial preliminary publicity, don't think otherwise.

High IQ comes with the terroritory
Interesting statement, if I may make a comment.

The whole wardrobe is black.

What is all this tubes stuff? It's pipes, dammit!
Ha! That reminded me of:
Now over to the sign of the marathon for incontinent people.

I'm not a hard-core computer geek but I "got" the joke. Very funny.
You wrote, "The headline has been changed clandestinely ...", I didn't.
The word you used implies that something sneaky was going on when in fact the headline change was a simple clarification.
*That's* my point, see?
You mean thongs, both versions of which can be seen on beaches.
clandestinely: marked by, held in, or conducted with secrecy.
Nothing new here, as apparently, this one smells quite a lot.
Proof that a curvy pink box can be less sexy than a plain beige box.
Wait - am I supposed to infer that a subtle but crude reference to female body parts is being made here by computer nerds?
Isn't there something called an Arm processor? Core vs. Arm - that brought back a lot of fond gaming memories.
Maybe they're using pure oxygen to reach those temperatures and get a more complete burn.

Keep in mind most southern schools have "Booster Clubs"...
Did members of said club go on to be active political party supporters (left or right)?
Certainly not their newly-purchased RPN HP calculators.
And to think that we used to consider the cold war spy games of surveillance, deception, redirection and lies as nasty stuff.
Like a Wiffle Bat? If I was still in Montreal I'd look you up.

Also encourage correct spelling. 'Principals' and 'Principles' are two different concepts.
