Yay! All the mercans are getting pished and/or fatted.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving, and don't forget to thank your local native mercans for all they did!

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

The Syrian Electronic Army has hacked a number of news websites after apparently compromising a third party content delivery network, possibly an advertising network.
The Pro-Assad javascript popup appeared across several websites, including The Telegraph, The Independent, Forbes, Time Out, PC World and The Evening Standard.
The Graniad was saved by a misspelt URI on the site.

the one with little talent and a massive ego.
Well, he came out with an all time classic the other day. We have a bug that's due to heavy CPU utilisation by some components that's causing resource starvation in another part of the system and leading to errors.
He says, "I am going to look at the system thread scheduler!" In a big and important voice.
You what? That's like 4 engineers discussing how to build a bridge, and one of them saying "I am going... to stop the rain!" (given that no rain = no river = no need for a bridge).
What a moron. Can you imagine the utter mess the system would have been in if he had even touched the scheduler?
|
|
|
|
|
Be fair, he did say he was going to look at it. He didn't say he was going to be able to do anything with it.
|
|
|
|
|
Imagine the mess he would have made.
|
|
|
|
|
That's way BSers work talk big, no balls.
|
|
|
|
|
Wouldn't stopping the rain work?
|
|
|
|
|
It would. It was also render the entire regions uninhabitable and thus also negate the need for a bridge.
However after the entire population moves to a neighbouring valley, where it is lush and verdant and crops grow, they would need another bridge.
|
|
|
|
|
Does he have privileges to change the scheduler?
Software Zen: delete this;
|
|
|
|
|
Its Linux, you can do what you want.
|
|
|
|
|
You should encourage him to change it. Give him a nice long piece of rope.
|
|
|
|
|
Oddly he has had so much rope he could have made a suspension bridge, but the execs don't seem to have realised how crap he is, despite the complaints coming from a number of people who have worked with him.
|
|
|
|
|
Sit on the side of the river and wait. Be sure to provide him as much rope as he needs and be collaborative and supportive. Noone will ever be able to tell you that it's your fault he's a dUck, or complain about your behaviour.
Let him dig his own grave...
