I've only been on the Copenhagen subway once, but I remember that the stations did have glass walls between the platform and the rail, with doors matching the doors on the trains. Not much error margin or people could not get out or in, and the few stops I was on the train it stopped perfectly every time.

More importantly, for the OP, go camping with a telescope with your kids.

Even if they're not old enough to really go into the theoretical bits, spending some quality time with their dad, seeing some awesome images through the telescope (and letting the wife have some quality time alone for herself) will probably make you the best dad in the world. It might not help you do something useful for the betterment of astrophysics, but I'm sure it will help you unwind after a long work-week, and as you try to explain the things your kids see in the telescope will help you understand some of these things better yourself. A good teacher should always learn while teaching, and all that. :-)

My life is so successfull
I've got everything a man could ever need.

Got a 1000 dollar haircut
And I even have a talkshow on TV.

And I know I should be happy, but instead
There's a question I can't get out of my head.

What's the meaning of Stonehenge?
It's killing me that no one knows
Why it was built 5000 years ago.

Why did they build the Stonehenge?
How could they raise the stones so high
Completely without the technology
We have today?

When I make my jalapeños
Calamari and prosciutto
I'm the king!

My wife applaud(s) me in the kitchen
When I tell her all I bought is from the local store

(And) When the kids have gone to bed, we're all alone
She gives me a smile
Then she plays with my balls

(But?) All I think of is Stonehenge
I think about it when I dream
The biggest henge that I have ever seen

What's the purpose of Stonehenge?
A giant granite brithdaycake
Or a prison far too easy to escape?

Stonehenge! Stonehenge! Lots of stones in a row!
They were 25 tons each stone, my friend
But amazingly they got them all down in the sand
And they moved it (Stonehenge!)
And they dragged it (Stonehenge!)
And they rolled it 46 miles from Waleeees! - Heeey (46 miles from Wales!)

What's the deal with Stonehenge? (Oh, what's the deal, what's the deal, what's the deal)
You should have left a tiny hint
When you made this fucking labyrinth, of stone! (Who the... )
Who the fuck builds a Stonehenge? (fuck builds a Stonehenge?)

Two Stone Age-guys wondering what to do
Who just said: "Dude, let's build a henge or two!"

I would give anything to know
About the Stonehenge
Yeah, I would give all I have to give
Would you give them your car?
(Mmm) Are you kidding me, of course I would have given the car
What car do you drive?
Drive a Civic, drive a Civic. Drive a Civic!
A car you can trust!
Never mind the car, let's talk about the henge
What henge is that again?
It's the Stonehenge, it's the Stonehenge!
God, it is the greatest henge of all!

What's the meaning of Stonehenge?

To be fair, Wasteland 2 hasn't happened yet.

To be fair, no it hasn't, we'll have to wait nine whole days more for it to happen properly.

typedef void (*FunctionPtr)();
std::map<std::string, FunctionPtr> knownCommands;

While on the subject of C++11/14, why not use std::function instead of a function pointer?

Does he also park in the handicap space?

While handicapped people make handicapped faces?

One thing that libraries are very good for, is to just walk around aimlessly along the shelves and see what's there. You still can't do that online.

For example, I was at a library just the other day, and didn't really know what book I wanted, so I just wandered around, picking up a book here, a book there, putting back a book when I found something more interesting. Left the library with The Complete Conan Saga, and Gaimans The Ocean at the End of the Lane.

Of course it's possible to write illegible code in Python. After all, it is possible to write FORTRAN in any language.

Dimples on a car? Like a golf ball car?

In many societies throughout history, women have (and still are) considered second citizens. It wasn't that long ago that in western culture women should be at home, and should obedient and timid creatures that serviced their husband and children no matter how their husband treated them.

Is it so hard to see that when women try to that stereotypical role that many men will have feeling about it? Most often those feelings are fear which the men show as hate.

So no it's not something which can be blamed on women "sticking out", it's because they are women that they get more "hate" than other groups.

And saying that everybody does it to everyone is a bad excuse, especially when it happens more to women than to men.

MapPoint? Wasn't it the service that plotted a route between two cities in Norway by taking the long, two-day and over 1600 mile scenic route, instead of the more direct 500 mile trip it was if going the other way around?

Well, yes it was!

There are many people who came up with great inventions or mathematical proofs just because no-one told that it would be impossible and not work.

I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure.

Haven't seen Limit Theory mentioned yet. It's an infinite space sim, all of the universe is procedurally generated, and coded by a single guy. Looking darn pretty too!

Though, it's not down on a planet level, it's only in space.

Airline crash? Like the airline going bust (e.g. chapter 11) or airline crash as in the whole fleet of aircraft crashing?
