... but tax evasion wasn't one of them: Anti-virus creator John McAfee arrested over tax evasion charges[^]

It's been quite a while since he was involved with the software, and I seem to recall him repudiating the direction it took.

His response to the company when they threatened to change the name of the software back when he was having problems in Brazil was priceless.
Company: Keep it up and we'll take your name of our AV.
McAfee: Good.

Well that's what eventually took down Al Capone, so....
The difficult we do right away...

they didn't arrest him over murder but tax evasion. wow. why am I not surprised.
|
|
|
|

Indeed, because tax evasion is worse than murder, although the murder thing seemed a tad dubious.

Consider this: in tax evasion there's a paper trail. For example, spending or savings vs. stated income. That's why money-laundering is so popular*
Perhaps, for shootings - they just clean up their brass.
* like fencing, money laundering is "the" enabling crime.

tax evasion is often the result of some shaddy businesses.
I consider him a mad man doing strange or illegal things, but wish he would do better thinks

I had yet to graduate high school when the album 5150 was a big hit. It's heavy when you realize that time doesn't stand still, and people get older.

I say it's worth 2 posts, Eddie set the bar high, like few others IMO.

family-safe video: [^]
when something emerged from the tedium of complexity, the struggle with bugs, the wrestling match with the limits of hardware and software, the psychodramas of "developers, developers, developers" ... something that approached art ... not just mastery, but, a sense of graceful, playful, unity of mind and context ... always a transient eternity that boomeranged you back to temporal same-old ...
i hold on to those memories now ... dearly ... as, i'm sure, you hold on to yours Quote: "Duration: momentary. Nature: changeable. Perception: dim. Condition of Body: decaying. Soul: spinning around. Fortune: unpredictable. Lasting Fame: uncertain. Sum Up: The body and its parts are a river, the soul a dream and mist, life is warfare and a journey far from home, lasting reputation is oblivion." Marcus Aurelius: "Meditations"

Work in automotive, we get those everyday. Most autmotive ECUs have 64 or 129 KB of RAM and a whopping 2MB of flash. They also have to manage signals in real time with granularities up to the millisecond and often are single core, <700 Mhz clock.
It *is* fun.

Only after segmented memory access was pretty much eliminated with 32-bit chips! God - the horrors of that code for breaking the 16-bit memory ceiling!
(I say that as someone who was just dabbling in programming at the time and never did anything with it, and seriously questioned my resolve to continue programming because of it. If you have memories of mastery from those days, my hat is off to you.)
