Nobody cares how you 'feel'. Try thinking for once.

Fair enough. That means we have to kill them _all_.

Obviously never used an entrenching tool. It's a folding spade/pick.

A good shovel has a 4ft+ handle

Wait a second. MySQL is somewhat respectable now?

I think it remains a trap for the inexperienced.

Please fondle my bum.

I more or less always pack in the woods. Better make the first shot count.

You extension of the analogy is broken. What % of cars even have warranties?

You should change your oil through simple self interest. Same reason you should see your doctor for routine visits.

My mom was ready to kill me when she saw what I had done to her vacuum cleaner. I put it back together and all was forgiven.

I always make sure to roost some gravel onto the sneering assholes.

Grownups are allowed to make decisions for themselves.

You realize you have no warranty on yourself? Your car warranty is completely irrelevant.

How does the computer know how much wire is protruding from it's tip when it goes to start an arc?

Things that we do without thinking are the biggest bitch to computers.

Nobody does been counting currency manipulation with floats unless they _have_ to. Because the code to make floats get the right answer is so ugly it's insane. But it's still faster in many cases. If for example you are writing a simulation model for an economic system floats are great for money. All an approximation anyhow.

Time to market and maintainability remains more important then execution speed for 99%+ of the code in the world. Using libraries is how that's done. e.g. What difference does it make if you code is slightly slower preparing database updates when it's database speed constrained anyhow.

I'm never going to defend PHP. It's the wrong tool for any job. Doesn't mean I'm writing bean counting apps in assembly language or C.
