  1. Deep in the Woods on Ask Slashdot: Where's the Most Unusual Place You've Written a Program From? · · Score: 1

    Was at 11,000 feet altitude, in full camouflage on an elk hunting trip.
    Had climbed to the nearest peak in an attempt to see if my wife had left any "must hear" voice mails when I noticed a high priority email.
    Ended up writing a perl script to do archival retrieval for a high needs customer; on my blackberry (BBSSH) via VPN over a 2g network.
    No elk were harmed in the making of that quick scripting.

  5. Re:*yawn* on Linux Claims 4 of the Top 5 Supercomputer Spots · · Score: 1

    Adding "a processor or two" is not always as simple as it sounds. Can you say Scalability? Sometimes that 1 processor or 2 falls out of the realm that the compiler, interconnect, or management system has yet to work in. Just upping the size does not always work.

  8. Re:Fedora what? on 96 Processors Under Your Desktop · · Score: 2, Insightful
    Because with RHEL, you have to pay "PER PROCESSOR" licensing.

    96 CPUs x $$$ == $$$$$$$ (you get the idea)

  9. Re:Golf? on CPAN: $677 Million of Perl · · Score: 1, Redundant

    you mean perl -e 'print "Cpan\n"' THAT is a one-liner

  10. Re:2guys dept store on The Absolute Worst Working Environment? · · Score: 1

    Ming the merciless was flash gordon, wasn't it?

  11. Shoot The messenger... on Win32 Blaster Worm is on the Rise · · Score: 2, Funny

    My wife calls me upstairs last night.."The machine keeps shutting down".. Me: "what" *looks at task manager* Task Manager: msblast.exe Me: "Why isn't the firewall turned on?" Wife: "I Hate having to answer all of its questions, so I turned it off." Me: AAAARRRGGGHHH
