  7. Re:We're all going to die... on The Math of Leap Days · · Score: 1

    Ashamed to admit it, but in 1988 took advantage of the fact that 2000 was a leap year, and the fact that I doubted my system (an artillery control system) would still be in use in 2100 to simplify some leap year logic to simply year % 4.

    Turns out I wasn't pessimistic enough... Obsoleted by 1998.

  8. Lovely and Intuitive? on Microsoft Launches Windows 8 Consumer Preview · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I had the Win8 Developer Preview, and I *HATED* the Metro Interface. IMHO it was ugly and a PITA to use. It does not scale well to a standard WIMP interface.

    Maybe for a tablet, it's OK.

    The OP's question was about nerve reattachment, which is the same whether it's your own or someone else's.

    Obviously, Anonymous is NOT the Spanish Inquisition, since according to them, EVERYONE should expect the Anonymous Inquisition!!!

  13. Re:Would the limbs have ever worked? on World's First Quadruple Limb Transplant Fails · · Score: 1

    And they've been reattaching severed limbs since the '70s. My friend's dad had his arm reattached after a boating accident circa '76. He was one of the first.
