Can the gross income of an ISP also be considered a net income?
|
|
|
|
|
Only if it has zero expenses and costs.
|

I think that went over your head. Looks like wordplay to me. Almost a good joke coming from a Norwegian. 
|
|
|
|
|
Only if the company does no work to earn the gross income.
I'll wait for y'all to recognize the brilliant pun there.

If the net income is pickled herring, then it is definitely gross income.

Hey, I like pickled herring!

And you don't even have being Norwegian as an excuse!

Nope. The closest I've ever been to Norway is a holiday in the Netherlands.
Pickled (and Matjas) herring are considered delicacies among many European Jews.

Back in the days, ISPs used to make a neat income.

On second thought, I'm not, but someone else is, so I'm not completely wrong

Haha, but when you put it that way, yeah...
But still I wasn't sharing for the I was almost right, I was sharing about the supernova...

Scientists watched a star explode in real time for the first time ever | Live Science
I had been meaning to finally go back and read that article...which mentions:
Quote: a red supergiant named SN 2020tlf and located about 120 million light-years from Earth
The use of "real time" in the headline bothers me...if it's 120 million light-years from Earth, and they've observed it recently...it exploded 120 million years ago, aka when dinosaurs were still roaming the earth.
The people behind a site like livescience.com should know better, especially if they're actual scientists.

Don't you just love it when you leave yourself a note like this in the code, but without an explanation of what's wrong / needs to be fixed? Especially if it's not something obvious 
|
|
|
|
|
Even worse: I've actually made some notes about the problem, but they still don't help!
|
|
|
|
|
I do that all the time.

Sometimes in my code I'll put // Finish and if I don't do it within a short time and go back I sometimes wonder what it was I was supposed to finish. Especially when I did finish and didn't remove the comment.

And when you go back to fix it, it looks fine.

TODO is the ultimate tool of the social procrastinator. Its me telling others that I"ll never come back to this.
Lately, I've been an anti-social procrastinator not even bothering with the TODO because its work to even add it

just looked at my code, there's about 50 TODO, half of them are auto generated MFC code, half are probably at least 10 years old each.
Too lazy to create a ticket and branch and Pull-Request to take them out.

And then you need the testing proof for the change.
I love to review user acceptance tests for “delete unreferenced methods” commits.
