  1. Re:Uber is paying slashdot. on London Mayor Boris Johnson Condemns Random Uber Pick-Ups · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I think its an intentional pun, and quite a good one. Sort of like advertorial and slashvertisement.

  2. A moment, Watson. Consider the following: on Disproving the Mythical Man-Month With DevOps · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The only logical conclusion is that some fucker is selling something.

    But it's a mashup! It's Dev from Development and Ops from Operations, mashed up together.

    You've got to like mashups!

    Ronco fits in there somewhere. I don't remember exactly, and perhaps that's for the best.

    Maybe they should have tried it the other way round.

    It's kind of like bands.

    When I was a kid there was a brand of tinned vegetables called Smedley, so yes, if he'd gone to my school he'd probably have had the mick taken out of him slightly.

    Smedley pe[ea]s in a pan, dirty sod so's his gran!

    They got bought by HP I think. No, the other one.

    Height is what matters, because the difference between the head's turn radius and the feet's largely depends on it.

    An interesting hypothesis. But have you considered the possibility that they actually are a bunch of feckless twats?

    So long as he doesn't make anything up, there is no possibility of additional suits for such activity (this isn't Britain!).

    I don't have the benefit of your immense legal education, so please explain why that makes a difference.

    Some citations would be nice.

    However this party was unrelated to PAX.

    That must be why it's the sixth word on the poster and the second in large type. Just after "poke'mon" [sic].

    Americans are ridiculously prissy about alcohol, but I see the point here.

    If you were in charge of a brand aimed at children would you want that association?

    What I'm saying is that it's not particularly egregious and super fucking petty of Pokemon Int'l to sue for something so piddly
