Exactly. We're moving a lot faster than that ourselves.

88,000 miles per hour is the speed 1000 DeLorean's need to travel at before they can all go "Back in time".
Were 1000 DeLorean's even built?

Just got the good news[^] via User Voice.
Guess I need to find some other horrible problem to request they fix now.
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?

A day late and a dollar short.
If I'd've know about that a few days ago, I could've either wrapped up what I was doing in the office and got home in time to do it from here, or just stayed late in the office to watch it before I left.
Instead you posted a mention of it when it was half overonly a minute or so from ending , that I didn't see before logging off at work, and now that I'm home it's already well over.

Yikes, didn't mean to step on your lawn there mate. I mean I did let you know pretty quickly just 13 minutes after I saw your post about VS, how was I to know you were logging off? Thought you might be interested in interview article itself, even if the Q&A portion was wrapping up
I guess you missed the announcements in the newsletter[^], in the Lounge[^], and various[^] places[^] on social media[^]

A software tester walks into a bar: Orders 0 beers, orders 256 beers, orders -1 beers, orders a lizard, orders a shot of scotch.
The bar tender fills a pint from the tap and says: "Works for me."

Nope. it doesn't count if I heard it yesterday, intended to post it before disappearing into a lab 8 hours ago but forgot to finish doing so before leaving my desk.
Edit: Especially since I heard a different version somewhere that wasn't redit.

Regulars will know of my Employment woes, well so far this week I have had to endure two interviews, tomorrow my Dad has surgery on his left eye (to correct a probably a hereditary eye problem, oh joy it looks like I may have it too ) and it now looks like I may have another interview Friday. I knew this week was going to be hectic but...
I am running on and trying to get to Saturday or Day as I am calling it!

I do wish I could, but sadly it only starts to appear after the 'magic' 60, I'm not yet 40 (close but not not!)... I did forget I posted that.

It's a strange thing this modern world, there are plenty of people I am 'friends' with on Facebook who I have never met, but some I consider to be friends in the real sense of the word. Steve Tickle was very much one of those, we talked about anything and everything online, I liked him a lot and he was a very good guy. Totally shocked to hear this evening that he has died, although perhaps fitting that I heard about his death on Facebook.
I shall miss him, that man I've never met. My thoughts are with his daughters and those who cared for him.
I've actually known him in an online sense for quite a few years before Facebook. We share a common interest, and he only lived around 15 miles from me. Nearly met a number of times, but on such occasions that could have brought us together one or the other couldn't make it. Absolutely gutted now that we never will.
Do you think it is odd to go to the funeral of someone you've never met?

There are a lot of faces that I see daily on my commute to work, but most of them remain strangers. There's people on CodeProject that I know 'better' then the ones that I meet daily yet don't talk to.
The communication is real, regardless of the medium. Communication is the basis for a human relation. If you need proof, simply go to a bad movie and see some women cry. The medium that transfers the story is real enough - even if the events would be fictional. Once you become part of the story, it helps to be able to close the book respectfully.

Beg to differ man. You never really know a person until you hang out with them on a regular basis. Even words are only 30% of communication, the rest is attitude, energy, body language, etc. The point being, I can post about my life all day long, but that falls very short to one of you guys actually going out clubbing or whatever with me for instance to see just who I really am behind the veil of the Internet.

I'm chiming in with Jeremy on this one.
I know you better after 60 seconds of face to face interaction than I would after years of online communication.
