I always assumed the pricing they had was temporary.
3 DVD's at a time was something like $15-$20 per month (I lose track with the Blu-Ray fee), and then streaming was added without a rate increase and without reducing the available DVDs. That's just too good to be true, except as a promotion.
Eclipse doesn't use Swing. Eclipse is the premier SWT app.
I don't think it's job description, but that culturally, jobs where you are likely to earn more than your boss are very unusual. Pharmacist might be the only well-known job where it's common.
Have you ever picked up a Les Paul? You can club damn near anything with one of those.
"With RPN, your parents can't understand what you're calculating!"
"RPN calculation parents understand not"
(leaves true on the stack)
Engineers would use formal symbolic logic, plus an informal summary. Yes, that would be easier to understand.

When Balmer took over Microsoft was roughly when Microsoft started making good products. Windows XP,

That is, the studios thought that MOST people bought DVDs and saw movies in theaters and Netflix was just there to "mop up" the small fraction of the market that didn't pay through the other channels.
That was true for me for a long time, but they stopped that themselves when they came out with Blu-Ray at much higher prices. I didn't want to buy Blu-Rays for twice as much, but I also didn't want to buy DVDs when there was a Blu-Ray, so I turned my NetFlix account back on.
they understood the need to have an agreed upon coding standard to make things more readable to the group
I've taken over maintenance of an awful lot of old programs, and I've never had a case where I thought I would have been helped by anything I've ever seen in any coding standards.
Reviews, on the other hand, might catch things like variable names that clash with what's actually going on, not trusting error or transaction systems, writing code that duplicates database constraints, wrong comments, etc.
If you experience a boner lasting more than four hours, call more ladies.
When was the last time you looked at Megan Fox and thought, "boy she is smart"?
Never for Megan Fox, but how about Tina Fey, Natalie Portman or Danica McKellar? Or Taylor Momsen or Gwen Steffani for singing ability.
All of them impress me for something other than appearance, but it doesn't mean I wouldn't love to wear any one of their asses like a hat.
If nothing else, we've spent the last ten years wearing out a lot off our equipment.
Why not just do it right there?
The professor I had for database systems and bioinformatics worked for the computer science department, but was an MD -- he seemed to be pretty good.
I dont care who first invented the hand-held mp3 player (I had a 128KB Creative RIO ), I care who makes the BEST one, and that happens to be Apple.
No, thank you. I don't want to be forced into managing my MP3s with iTunes and using that to load the player.
Between me, my son, my dad and my sister, we've have six or eight Sandisk players over the years.
Old programmers never die, they just hit account block limit.
