I'm reasonably sure I would be watching it on TV too, but hard times for the public in USA (or Syria) don't make me happy.

You do realize that there are quite a few integers between 10 and 20, and between 20 and 30, that serve the same distinguishing purpose as your precise splitting into 40-50-60-70-80-90, don't you?

Maybe this new manager saw after few weeks that there wasn't really anything to justify keeping the dev around any longer?

Makes sense.

Doesn't make sense if the previous assertion is valid. It's not like the quality/quantity/time triangle where each part directly affects the others.

5-7-5 it is

I don't believe you. Where is your proof of that? And don't tell me to google it, you are asserting something that sounds like a fantasy.

Don't worry, the other half of the population is smarter than average!
Oh, and to those posters complaining that mean!=median, they are probably completely right if when talking about mean/median intelligence. But when talking about measured IQ - completely wrong. Here, have an explanation.

You may have learned to read when you were 2, but you still havent learned to close your parantheses. Seriously, some people consider that as heinous a crime as leaving the toilet seat up!

I remember some of those games... Here's a quickly googled list if anyone's interested. Nice to have some nitpicking take you down memory lane, cheers :o)

Interesting - did you work on some titles one might have played back in the day?

Nope. Everyone I know that had one, at least bought papers where you could input cheat POKEs for infinite lives, times etc. Anecdote, I know - but still, where did you get your statistics of 'Most Spectrum owners' from?

Actually, I don't think that's the case. I've often modded something as interesting and seen it go from +3 undefined to +4 insightful (and vice versa).

Except that if you bought the phone in good faith and it then got bricked as supposedly stolen, wouldn't you take some action? If you have some trail of rightfully buying the phone (paper/electronic/witnesses), then it should get unbricked and the original owner should get the mud right back in his face.

I can't read stuff that mixes meters and feet. It requires endless calculations while reading, the end result being that I don't remember any of it afterwards.

Why would you store all the comments for an article in the same record? Makes for update/clashing hell. Just store the article id and reply-to comment-id along with each comment, and let the db/caching take care of the heavy lifting.
