I for one certainly appreciate your bash shellshock patches.

Odd. Sturdy laptop with unstable OS... You must be new to Linux =)

Wanted to add - if you have 1700+ pictures (like my wife).... your phone will bog down. Make sure you have the space on your phone. iPhones do notoriously get slow when they start running out of space.

Liked your wife on facebook. Honour me the pics!

(also: the wear helmet recommendation)

Or maybe they accidentally caught a broadcast of Idiocracy and just aren't into sequels...

I realize one could rob any courier service, but with drones it's going to be dead-simple unless they start building in all kinds of security measures but thus limiting the capacity/range/... of the machine.

Blackwater postal services delivering world-wide?

And not just a little. FAR safer.

Increasing guns per capita safer? Sounds more like doomsday prepping to me

bankrupt.
Only made it because General Motors is actually 2 words.

Exactly this. It's worth mentioning that your interview skills are more important that your actual programming skills. Sad but true.

That competence based view certainly is a power play movement of the last 10-20 years, eagerly used to scale down technical work to manual labor.
In any case, remember that skilled craftsman are always wanted for -- at the end of the day, it boils down to both you and your employer walking in agreement out of the door

Sure. Human body is:
99% oxygen, carbon, nitrogen
1% everything else and of that 1%, 93% is potassium et.al. and of that 1% is Whopper, that is how little Whopper is actually within your atmosphere, and Whopper is a necessary ingredient for human life. Google Whopper franchises and you will see what they have for sale to increase body growth in loins and liver. More Whopper = more you.
But seriously, blabbering BS may buy you time in financial crises, you cannot outsmart exponential human growth.

ahhh, ye olde Tandon drives where double density floppies could be used as high (1.2M) density.

BASIC does probably teach some bad programming habits but at the same time it's accessible to an 8-year-old, and you're learning concepts that are applicable for life: file management, how to store and retrieve data, syntax, etc etc.

Also access to source code; before BBS about the only tutorial/learning docs available.
