The puns on this thread are enough to cause the south to rise again....
What interests me are the # of indian (generally) sounding names that actually can make a pun about the War between the states...

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

That's hilarious! I was going to comment with something along the lines of:
"This is your car. This is your car on Instagram? Any questions?" But there's no way any graphics I find would match the IG comment. Thanks for the smile.

Costa Rica?
Bit of a long shot, but Cousin = C or possibly Co.
Unknown aristocrat = star from tsar.
ICA - not actually a platform but Independent Computing Architecture (thanks Google).

No, not Costa Rica (nor any other country for that matter).
The answer is both alliterative and fictitious, for what it's worth.

I can never figure these CCCs out anyways. Not to mention that they're supposed to be posted while I am still in bed

Well done, sir!

Software developers teaching robots to fight..? They've got no chance!
Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

As Sun Tzu said, fighting is the most primitive way of making war on your enemies.

Yes, but the man was also a master of the obvious, like telling us to take care that the wind comes from behind when you intend to set something on fire.

Actually, when I create a user interface, it's much the same, conceptually (except the fire part). The "Press Any Key" scenario is something I've actually witnessed, live.
Thus, we complete the circle, for software developer -> fight -> obvious precautions:
He obviously had user problems of his own.

Obviously, soldiers always have been trained to do exactly what they are told and not to waste any time thinking about it. Like the guys I had trained urban combat with. We were told to line up to the right and to the left of a door, throw in a grenade and then storm the room. The other group did exactly that - without waiting for the grenade. You should have seen their faces.

I don't know if such soldiers scare the enemy, but they certainly scare me!

Chances are good that they will remember the lesson. In training a grenade does little more than making you look quite dumb. When there is no more time for training, Darwin probably takes over.
