My daughter has three grandfathers, my brother's kids have three grandfathers and three grandmothers.
OK, one of each should have step- in front of them, but as far as the kids are concerned they are the real thing.
For my part I had one grandfather, the other buggered off in 1960 and I've only heard him mentioned a couple of times my whole life.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Ah! "Step-" makes a big difference: I was assuming you were from Norfolk, or worse - Luton...

That would definitely be a cool job. Flying in a fighter style jet is on my bucket list.
Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.

Some people feel that being either arrested or killed in a terrible accident is their calling in life.

Nevermind, I actually meant "reading while sitting in a car and someone else is driving".

Now, that was too obvious from your original statement, wasn't it? Good one!
Whether I think I can, or think I can't, I am always bloody right!

I am sure the photographer in the OP does not pilot while taking pictures, so I'D thought this would be obvious enough...
Sorry, the traffic light just turned green, have to go.

Cool! And I thought I was doing good moonlighting as towel boy for the Swedish Women's Ski Team.

Got an E-Mail from an auto-bot from CodeProject.
It had a link to a survey question.
I clicked.
I have approximately zero knowledge on the topic.
How do I answer ?
|
|
|
|

Surveys don't need you to be an expert in that particular environment. You just need to share your opinion brother. That's all!

The question is...
"...Check all the things you think SAP does (no cheating and looking up wikipedia!)
Please choose 1 or more options..."
That acronym just never crosses my line of work. I have no need of SAP, never have, it's just something for other people to worry about.

|

There you go !!!
I like it.
The rule says no cheating by asking Wikipedia.
I can still ask the experts here; HA ! And be halfway confident that I'm reading at least half-truths instead of wikipedi-ized accounts of reality !

The top answer should of course be Slows All Processes
|
|
|
|

I thought it was Sement All Processes; because once you implement SAP it will cost a zillion dollars to make even the smallest change to how you do business.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

The answer, of course is:
Provides little or no discernible benefit to the customer, while increasing the bank balance of the consultancy you are forced to bring in, resulting in mass layoffs when you go bankrupt.

OK, I cheated for you:
[Sap] is a fluid transported in xylem cells (tracheids or vessel elements) or phloem sieve tube elements of a plant. The xylem cells transport water and nutrients throughout the plant.

When in doubt, choose option C.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
|
|
|
|

Okay, the options are...
From the Survey...
What does SAP do?
Check all the things you think SAP does (no cheating and looking up wikipedia!)
Please choose 1 or more options
Cloud based Platform-as-a-Service
Customer Relationship Management
Enterprise Resource Planning
Javascript UI frameworks
NoSQL Database appliances
Okay, I want to make it clear that I don't know the right answer. I want to deliberately make the wrong choice, but I have a 20% chance of making the right one (which would be wrong).
Uhm.
Which of these 5 is the wrongest choice to make ?
