I like my manager and supervisors, but don't really like the environment. I stick around for three reasons:
1. It's a paycheck. These days, this can be hard to find. 2. I enjoy the practice and insight I get dealing with these problems. 3. I'm actually doing something useful. I couldn't tolerate "helping" people buy a printer, for instance.
I used to filter 0's, but I realized that sometimes they have something useful to say that a moderator either hasn't bothered or doesn't care for. Filtering -1 seems to get me better results. There's a bit more noise, but you get more of the signal too:)
The part where no money is taken/received, apparently. The people in charge of this mess are scrooges. They subscribe to a very bad form of morals:
1. If it results in profit, it is moral. 2. If it does not result in profit or loss, it is pointless (or immoral) 3. If it results in loss, it is immoral
I forget the name of this system, but it's a real system that sociologists study. I think you could substitute profit for gain, as profit is a subset of gain.
Honestly, I wish such people would wise up or die in a fire.
Indeed. Reading the summary I had expected to see a borgified kitty, or at least something H.R. Geiger-ish. Instead, it's a normal prosthetic (with the exception that it's grafted to tissue directly).
The shitty end of the stick finally comes around and slaps em in the face. Bought into Microsoft? Sure it was painless. At first. It takes a good while to set in, but like a burn you feel the fucker nice and good.
I don't think you understand. These things are used as any other python code. The magic is that C is the backend that actually crunches the numbers. You don't even have to know or care that C is used. All you know is you call the foo method in the bar module.
I'll quote someone else. Room temperature means something very particular:
When I learned basic chemistry "room temperature" specifically meant 20 degrees Celcius. It is a fixed value.
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_temperature: "For scientific calculations, room temperature is usually taken to be 20 or 25 degrees Celsius, (293 or 298 kelvin (K), 68 or 77 degrees Fahrenheit)."

Please tell me where you get your medical care so I can stay FAR FAR FAR away?
Every single EACH AND EVERY healthcare professional I've dealt with cares.

No, instead he'll receive a few stab wounds (self defense plea) followed up with a sexual harassment lawsuit.
I'll never have to work again. If the court disagrees with my self defense plea, I'll still not have to work again.
Not the guy at Amazon. It takes intelligence with a lack of scruples to abuse this.
I have no comment on the first paragraph, but the last two certainly seem to shout "I actually DO have a clue."
Don't forget the one with alternations:
GOOOOOOAAALLOOAALLOOAAAALLLL!

How high-horse of you.
Unfortunately both the amusements operator and Sirius have already paid there share to ASCAP. All you did is shift the bullshit onto someone else.
If it's so harmless, come on over and let me shoot it at you. You wouldn't mind would you, after all it only shoots pea-sized pillows...
(that's .22 WMR. it can tear a Coyote in half, and kill deer. Exit velocity nearing 2km/s)
I guess there's too many cooks in this kitchen!
I have the insatiable urge to punch that person. The douchebag just oozes off of him/her (honestly I can't really tell).
Wouldn't a thin coat over the metal solve the problem while still preserving the looks?
I would have bought it, had I not paid for the windows version via steam a long while ago.
Delayed releases suck. Had I any idea, I would have bought only the Linux version.
Indeed. Death threats are just that - threats.
You give me such a threat, and you'll find one right back in your face.
Don't quit your day job (Unless you edit photos for a living. In that case, quit immediately.)

... because their government(s) are pieces of shit and/or they have no real resources.
It sucks, yes. But it's no reason for the rest of the world to drop everything and rush to fix their problems for them.
Or the loop was part of the design.
I leave my machine on overnight and lots of things are looping "endlessly" - and that's not a problem.

Perhaps you should go back to Civ III :)
Wrong. A few Dell PE servers have P4s in them, and -require- ECC memory.
