What is a 501 developer? One who stays til one minute past five?
|
|

No, they are rebellious developers who despise their bosses and wear those[^] as a symbol of the revolution.
At least artificial intelligence already is superior to natural stupidity

Oh my god! I hope none of my devs finds these!

Wait! I could be wrong. They also could have joined the 501st Legion[^]. Then they would not be rebels

Now that's business attire!
Do you think it would be appropriate to allow opening the air vents a bit on casual friday?

Just had to share.
I had a few reminders in the last few weeks that put petty problems you want to solve with a shotgun into the right perspective.Enjoy life and always ask yourself if a rant is worth raising your blood pressure. Don't assume your close ones know what they mean to you. Tell them.
Sorry for the interuption, resume normal activity.

A medic or in the case of the USMC Corpsman see a lot of horrific things in combat and I would rather he knew what he was doing prior to tending my wounds. Doctors used to use cadavers, don't know if they still do or not but it gives them some very practical training.

When I was in combat training (USMC 67) our instructor sat us all down in some low bleachers, killed a rabbit, gutted it and threw the guts up into the bleachers. It had no practical purpose other than expose us to death, that's what they were teaching us. If you've never seen something like that there's no way to explain it to you and no way to prepare you for it.

I would have thought a stint in any local hospitals A&E truma section would be better training... especially given the amount of people killed by guns every year over there.
but i do agree with your premise of preparation being needed

Would you rather they train on humans? As a veteran I'm damn glad the medics didn't have to practice on me.
Failure is not an option; it's the default selection.

I'm with you on this. They would have to demonstrate this has any value. Glib references to the horrors of war are not sufficient.

Right, forget the references, how about actual experience. Had any?

That is just a bullying comment. I prefer to keep this impersonal and focussed on the subject at hand.

I know programmers lead a very sedentary life and are not all that active. However, I know some of you are avid fitness buffs. I've decided to become less sedentary and more active and I've got a question about headphones. I'm looking for a good pair of headphones that will stay put when I'm running, are resistant to sweat, and sound decent. What do the savvy recommend? I've considered the Bose IE2, the Sennheiser 680 line, and various others. I'm looking more for wired headphones than wireless, if that makes a difference.
Don't blame me. I voted for Chuck Norris.
