OS X was based on Next Step, you mean, though that admittedly included BSD code, apparently.

Betteridge's Law of Headlines: Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no.

I'm not familiar with "hair on fire". Is that a higher priority than "lp0 on fire"? Does it notify via Morse code on the SES light? Is the code a P number, or ASCII?

I assume the term Troll actually comes from the fishing term, where you let out a line with bait and then move in your boat at a slow speed to simulate live prey. So perhaps a Trawler of Trolls or a Net of Trolls or some other nautical term.

Beyond the possible blue light = day light issues, it's just true that red light doesn't destroy your night vision. We made sure to get a nightlight that can be set to red for the hallway to my daughter's room, and keep a headlamp that has a red light in her room for if we have to find something while she's asleep. The default on the nightlight is green, I think, so I've had to stand there and get my nightvision back when I've turned it on post power-outage in the middle of the night.

I don't have mod points, but thank you. To me, the suggestion of pardoning him, let alone Jill Stein's stance as listed above... if I had considered voting for a third party, I would be definitely put that as a mark against that person.

And Trump also has spoken favorably of Brexit, which might lead to other countries leaving the EU, a weaker EU is also to Russia's benefit. (Not to get all conspiracy theory.)

BS. I'm a female engineer and I frequently joke that female engineer is a different gender than just female. I'm an engineer and a geek first, most definitely, and I would say that's true of a great number of female engineers I know. I hate shopping, except for books or games, I hate gossiping and small talk. I'm an INTJ, if you're into Meyers Briggs. I have never been given any opportunity to negotiate on salary. I do my performance review and I get a little slip of paper with my raise.

How about you try not spamming. That would go over a lot better.

Other countries have addressed the "starter job" versus "adult job" issue by... having two minimum wages, dependent on age.

Or be made to look like Natalie Portman?

Video or it never happened.

No, really. I want to see 180dB ultrasound light someone up. I already know uBeam is bullshit.

I've 39 right now, and I've been lucky enough to work at one company since college. Like a lot of people, I worry about my job, especially since I work at a defense contractor. I've had friends who were laid off and had a bear of a time finding a job, and I worry that in the next couple of years that will be me. Now, at my actual workplace, I haven't seen much of it; I work on a program that has been in active development since at least 1992, so I think we really value the guys who have been at it since the beginning. Of course, right now we don't have a ton of new hires, since they've tended to be the people who have set sail for more stable ground vs the ones with houses, families and inertia.
