Heh, nobody at work likes to use my machine because of the way I've remapped the shortcuts. I started my computer career back in the 70's. The word processor of choice back then (on CP/M atleast) was WordStar. The shortcuts for cursor movement, copying and such are pretty much ingrained in my brain. So to continue using them I remap the cap locks as the control key, the control key as the alt key and the alt key as the cap locks (use ZiffDavis utility called TradeKeys). I then have an AutoHotKey script that basically lets me use the Wordstar shortcuts in jEdit, Visual Studio, Word, Codecomposer Studio, Eclipse, etc. Basically, any place I'm going to be editing text.

That is awesome! I didn't start my career till 2000, but I still feel old school compared to many of my peers.

The most efficient methods would be important if you're just keying thousands of lines of code, but the average programmer writes 50 lines of code per day. It sounds like what you're really saying is, "how dare people be different from me".

There is a difference between knowing every shortcut for every program, and knowing the basics. In this case Cut/Copy/Paste would be nice. Plus, we're in IT. Its our job to know how to use computers. Learning shortcuts for the programs you use every day demonstrates a passion for your work.

So, I clear some form data just before populating it with updated values (from a new search). What happens? The form shows the new data, then clears! I have to put a freaking timeout in the javascript because it appears that jqWidgets is updating its controls on a separate thread. The plain vanilla HTML controls clear/update just fine.
That and the fact that it really isn't very mobile device friendly. I get all sorts of weird behaviors on different mobile device browsers.
There's something to be said for plain-ol' HTML with jQuery and not much else.
Lesson learned.

I've also had to reprogram a couple of their controls. But I decided this is far better than designing my own controls. The odd thing is one of the reasons I had to do the re-programming on one control is because it didn't work properly in their own container controls!
But I give them credit, because they do have the best documentation I have ever seen.

That is true. And I get replies on their forums within 24 hours.

Are your exam results under water if they are below C level?

Well...the trailer is funnier than the whole original film...but I do hope that isn't all the good bits!

Worthy of note is that there is not a single man talking in the whole trailer and the only near close up of a man is as eye-candy.
This will definitely be the first of a new genre of chic-action.

AFAIK, most of the male cast of the original movie is doing cameos. I hope it's true. It wouldn't be Ghostbusters without at least a glimpse of Bill Murray...

Well, to be honest, all that mucking about in clay was a bit sickening. What? What do you mean, wrong film?
