Tim Cook (CEO, Apple) and Sundar Pichai (CEO, Google) met for lunch one day.
Tim: Sundar, I know you are using an iPhone.
Sundar: How do you know that?
Tim: Siri has the voice profiles of millions of people and it can identify people by voice.
Sundar: That's great. but I also know you're using Google Maps.
Tim: No way! But out of curiosity how do tell that?
Sundar: If you were using Apple Maps, you'd never have made it to the restaurant on time.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Nadella would have been there too, ...
except that instead he cluelessly attempted to turn lunch an uncomfortable black and white strap-on device in the form of a baby bottle.

So CEO got some specification of a new features, he checked it and decided to do it, so passed over the job WITHOUT the specification...
I just love it...

Today I'm banging my head against PHP, and came across this little gem...
"The RecursiveIteratorIterator recursively iterates over recursive iterators..."
Two Queations:
1) Is there a RecursiveIteratorIteratorIterator class that recursively iterates over recursive iterators in recurstive iterators?
2) Could my previous question have been written more succinctly using recursive iteration?

Nice touch...

Somewhat akin to flying in ever decreasing concentric circles?

How much recursive iteration could a recursive iterator iterate if a recursive iterator could iterate recursively?

My guess would be that it inherits from a RecursiveIterator, so you could then use one RecursiveIteratorIterator to iterate over a second RecursiveIteratorIterator (recursively, of course).
Cheers,

You lost me at PHP.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

I'm about to buy one and got a few offers, but the best (or seems to be) are about battery powered machines... While I have screwdriver of such nature I have no experience with saw powered by battery... Does it last long enough to be effective? Has it the power to cur harder materials (metal or very old tree)?
Any experience?

First advice:
1. Don't go cheap brand ever - you really get what you pay for
2. Min 18 volt, even if 12/14 on super special anything under 18 you will be cursing before half done.
3 Also don't ever cheapen on blades, doing so will only destroy your work.

Thank you...
I'm not sure about brand (my current is Bosch), but the offers are from Makita, Dewalt and Worx...

Bosch, Dewalt & Makita are good brands - but be careful, sometimes even their 'entry level' models may be under par.
It's typical TCO:
- Pay the extra now and have a tool that lasts and works well for years...
- Buy the cheapo and:
-- 1. within a week you'll be back at the shop buying replacement materials (first lot destroyed by the tool poor function)
-- 2. if you intend more work a year or less later you will be back at the shop buying a replacement tool.
Particularly with a jig saw: cheapo saw + cheapo blades will go crooked (literally in all 3 dimensions) so fast it will destroy the item being cut and if you're not fast enough may take a thumb with it. Really, - I'm not joking, I've been there, cheapo jigsaws are that dangerous.

I agree with Lopatir about the cheapest, and the quality of the blades - but I bought an air compressor years ago, so I buy air tools now in preference to electric ones: They generally are easier to use because all the motor weight is down in the air tank instead of up with the surface being worked on.
My experience with rechargeables is simple: get two batteries, and understand that they will both always be flat as a pancake when you actually want to use them... 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

It seems our local stores are not there jet... Air tools are rare (and most of them for those working with stone) and are globally have higher prize... From my experience I change tools ever 8-10 years, so maybe at the next switch...

0. A battery one is a complete waste of time, money, and space
1. Don't buy one that has a handle (example[^]); buy one where you hold the motor assembly (example[^]) -- the difference during usage is immense.
n.b. I've used pictures saws from the same company for both examples, but that's out of convenience, and does not express a preference of mine
