  1. Re:542 Million year chart on New Theory Links Biodiversity to the Stars · · Score: 1

    Yup, Heinlein, and I think he predicted it spot on or something like that because it ended right as the sun was starting to die :)

  2. Re:542 Million year chart on New Theory Links Biodiversity to the Stars · · Score: 1

    Speaking of charts...

    Year of the Jackpot, anyone?

  3. Re:What was the result.. on Amazon Goes Web 2.0 Wild to Defend 1-Click Patent · · Score: 1

    Imagine if one firm had the if-then statement and another had the loop statements :)

  4. Re:Bad luck on Researchers Chill Mirror to Near Absolute Zero · · Score: 1

    Well, you see... (0 != 1) == 1

    And with a very lax compiler (0! = 1) == 1

  5. Re:Still here, for the comments. on Dealing With Venom on the Web · · Score: 1

    It was always for the comments.

    He then proceeded to give a tipoff about what Oxygen was doing around the corner with those two Hydrogen fellers....

  8. Re:That is SO COOL. on High Schooler Is Awarded $100,000 For Research · · Score: 1

    As much as this is offtopic, I would have loved to participate in science fairs in school, but my school really didn't do that kind of thing. Especially with the heavy focus on sports and the diminishing science lab (apparently we couldn't do some actual experiments in chemistry because they didn't want to pay some sort of insurance for it).

  9. Re:High School on Google Launches Summer of Code 2007 · · Score: 2, Informative

    No, sadly, unless they changed it from last year. You have to be 18 by the time of application deadlines. :(

  10. Re:What if TSR had patented "hit points?" on How D&D Shaped the Modern Videogame · · Score: 1

    I thought I'd need something to top off my senior year, so I went ahead and wrote a dice roller for my TI89. I hope you feel happy now!

    (Although I'll have to look into the mechanics of that treasure generator.... I've never actually been invited to any D&D sessions... :P )

    my $FREE = "$50";

  13. Re:programming waste on Oblivion Expansion Confirmed · · Score: 1

    Not sure about you, but I'd rather have more content in that extra space than more graphics...

    If you're spending a significant portion of the game thinking the graphics could be better, then it needs more and/or better content.

  14. Re:Its Software Programmer! on The Hidden Engineering Gender Gap · · Score: 1

    I think he's getting his Software Engineering and Computer Science degrees all muddled up.

  16. Re:kits on Methods of Learning to Build Electronic Circuitry? · · Score: 1

    Thames and Kosmos Microcontroller Kit

    Would these 150 in 1 kits be something like this?

  17. Re:If! But! Maybe! Might! Could! on Voice Over IP Under Threat? · · Score: 1

    And if I go out at night, and if I wear all black, and if a car comes towards me with no headlights on then I might get run over.

    But not if you're on fire!

  19. Wii woe on People Swapping PS3s for Wiis? · · Score: 1

    Great, now even more people are taking my Wiis. I'm thinking about waiting until March with the discount + colors now since it's not that far away anymore. That is... if I even get one at all.

    It could be worse....

    They could finish KOTOR II and sell it as KOTOR II.5

    It doesn't seem you have a monopoly on prime UIDs though! :D

  24. Re:They're right on the cult classics on Don't Forget the First Xbox · · Score: 1

    Phew, that was obviously the wrong answer or the universe would have ceased to exist and would have been replaced with something even weirder.

    I had to count and I had to recount, but by golly, there are 7 digits in his UID!
