House music are great. I always listen to them when chilling at the beach with beer on my side.

Friday November 18th, The Grand Tour launches!
The Grand Tour Season 1[^]
Let's hope it's better than The Chris Evans Top Gear was (and let's be honest, it would be hard pressed to be worse).
My Amazon Prime subscription is paid, my Fire Stick is working, and I'm ready. Herself is going to be sooooo happy - and annoyed that she has to wait a month and a half, of course!
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

I will be watching too (via app on XBox One).
Joey has signed up for two more years of Top Gear as well.

A lazy racehorse promises to be hard-working (8)

Studious ?
Stud = race horse
ious = promises

I don't get where "lazy" comes into it...

Neither do I unless he means a stud is lazy because they don't race anymore

I think they do more work when they are out to stud than they do when they're having a bit of a canter, don't they?

Dang, thought I'd managed a moderately difficult one there... You are, of course, correct.

Care to explain the last bit ?

I don't understand. Which last bit? You already got it right, and the explanation as well.

Catherine the Great[^]
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.

Glad they ain't talking 'bout real intelligence.
But seriously fakery and bullshit is where these guys excel,
and if they want to keep it to just between themselves then everybody wins.
|
|
|
|
|
FarceBook doesn't have anything to do with real intelligence, so any kind there has got to be an improvement.
I'm pretty sure that even ELIZA[^] could pass the Turing Test there with ease...

Security makes strange bytefellows.
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

We are in the process of interviewing for new contract, a guy come in during his lunch hour and we go through the usual Q&A for the start of the interview.
The guy is eloquent and describes his last few project, MVC, ASP.net and some sharepoint.
So I ask which frameworks he uses and he rattles of a list of different service and client side tools.
Then I ask which WPF framework he is most familiar with, I get a puzzled look. I go into a little more detail citing Prism and MVVM light, more puzzled looks. I ask if he knows what MVVM means. He shakes his head and says he has never used it.
At this point I an somewhat annoyed, we a a primarily a WPF shop, and ask him what WPF projects he has done. None.
I then point out that he should give his agent a rocket because the CV I'm holding has WPF scattered through it.
He then tells me that "oh no that is my CV I wrote it". Interview terminated, duration 7 minutes.
How do these people expect to get through an interview let alone a job when they don't knoe the primary platform they are interviewing for.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity
