Some would say that if you're working nights and weekends, that's a sign you need a better iterative development methodology (like agile).
My experience has been contrary to yours. Having everyone own the code means that people don't throw bugs over the fence to the only dev that is working with that bit (who happens to be on vacation for three weeks); instead, they fix the damn bug themselves and, if they're not confident about the fix, send a note to the guy that knows the most about that code.
I don't think Agile is a silver bullet. I think iterative development with frequent testing is generally a good thing, whether it's in the form of agile, rup, whatever. Doesn't have to be Agile.
I don't think you know how tax brackets work. You're only taxed the higher rate on the money you actually earn in the new bracket. So both you and the stoner don't pay a dime for the first 18k you earn.
The article doesn't say you can't go from XP to Vista to Windows 7. It just says you can't go *directly* from XP to Windows 7.
That said, I can't find any explicit confirmation or refutation that you can't go from an upgraded Vista install to Windows 7. I certainly wouldn't bother, but I also always do a clean install for everything except OS X upgrades.
Because you often don't just back something up once - when dealing with important data (i.e. not your MP3 and porn collection) you want at least 30 days of daily backups... that's 30 gigs right there. Not too cost effective there.
There's an arcade in downtown calgary, alberta is also a lounge that serves alcohol. Separate areas though. BUt you can enjoy a cold one and walk 20 feet and enjoy some DDR...
Oh come on, anyone with sleazy furniture like that surely would have no problem bringing home a working girl...
That said, although the decoration is terrible, the lighting is actually pretty cool, assuming you could turn the brightness up and maybe have it switch to white light or something.
Ironic that this should be slashdotted, since./ is more-or-less the last bastion of the kind of free-speech, open-debate that exists.
Are you joking? Slashdot is like zealot central. Seriously, geeks and nerds are as bad as anyone when it comes to censoring unpopular ideas, at least within their subculture.
Couldn't you sue them for slander if they say bad things about you that are patently false?
It's my understanding that former employers will either rave or be indifferent usually (at least in Canada from talking to my friends and acquaintances)
Of course, by the sounds of it your former employer was running a fairly small shop and he's also farking crazy, so common sense on his part may not apply there.
Basically, he's a skinny, stinky geek. So he needs some mcdonalds and some freshening agents. Or maybe he's a phat yet fresh dude and he's just getting the gifts everyone knows he'll love.
I got a toblerone the size of my arm and some pomade. I have no idea what that means...
Oh, and I got a nice compliment about my sexual prowess. I wanted it in writing so I could show it to all the ladies (and get em all up ons yo), but no dice:\
Yeah, I can't see the point of playing shooting games either, when I can just as easily just pull a gun at the mall.
Seriously though, I think a lot of people that play sports games play them when they can't organize a real game or a real game isn't possible. I had a friend in high school that played basketball all the time, but in the winter he was always playing on his SNES.
You can get a quick game in on your console before dinner.
You can play even if you are disabled (wheelchair football anyone?).

i4i is privately held, so it's not that simple.

Yes, I have. Really frustrating.
Hey guys, what's up?
Oh, sorry I thought someone called me...
C# is indeed C followed by a musical sharp. But everyone uses the octothorpe for convenience.
Plenty of non-RIAA artists receive money from this. SOCAN != RIAA.

I can think of one time it helps - cold solder joints.
Just because few people use *all* the options doesn't mean that the all of the options aren't used across the entire user base.
Sounds like he might be an aspie.
A real one that is, not a fake one like many geeks who like to claim the title for some damn reason.
That would be the original GBA. You can't play that goddamned thing using normal lights indoors...

Sounds like a strange game, whichever kind of beaver they mean...
Libs and Cons both have their sacred cows. When it comes to free speech, neither end of that political spectrum truly wants it.

Actually, I think most of the crimes take place indoors. I saw a couple of guys get into a fistfight today in a mall in downtown calgary.
Come to think of it, a lot of police stations are in malls these days too in Canada... hmmm....
Metropolis was one of Hitler's favourite films.
PC Gaming unwell?
That's unpossible!!!

The game intro screen changes (homer as santa, tree in the corner)
