That's what it's said on the Maunder catching up with Mick for a beer clock, for the past 9 years or so.

"I controlled my laughter and simple said "No,I am very busy,so I can't write any code for you". The moment they heard this all the smiling face turned into a sad looking face and one of them farted. So I had to leave the place as soon as possible."

Beer O' Clock? When I met him a few months ago, he mentioned you guys were due to meet for a decaf low-fat soy milk latte.

Maybe they are football minutes.
Still sounds better than SharePoint. You get the ubiquitous "This should not take long." message with no estimate. When you see this message, it means you have plenty of time to get a cup of coffee. ![Java | [Coffee]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif)

You obvious are slow to upgrade..... 
or new to MacOSX.... 
having had that estimation since the Leopards grew old and the Lions hatched 
I recall that especially true when you have anything else in /usr/local, or /Users/<names>/Applications, it doesn't like competition from other developers 
And don't think about trashing and then do a TimeCapsule "restore applications" either you'll need even more
Thus, think about it this way: It's silly season, even computers have the right to be silly this season

So I'm reading through a printed manual for a new piece of equipment for the lab, and I come across this brilliant suggestion:
"... and Android support. Learn more about new features here."
Yes, it's a hyperlink in a printed book. Cannot understand why it doesn't take me to the new features.

For a hard copy, you probably need a real mouse to click it. Be careful, the mouse may byte. And if you click too hard, it may leave droppings.

Some years ago I worked for a US Corporation, although I was based in the UK. Marketing at US HQ periodically sent out a bulletin to everyone in the world about stuff they thought would be of interest. The document was usually about 20 pages or so, and every page comprised printed URLs (each usually in excess of 200+ characters), together with a single sentence describing them. When I suggested it would save money and make more sense to put this information on our intranet I got the reply: "Thank you for your suggestion, we will take it under advisement". It took them nearly a year to change.

Yeah, well, if it worked, why change it???

Remember the computer magazines from the '80s with programs in them?
Type all of the code in, hope it works.. when it doesn't, work to find the error...
Good old days...

Boy do I remember those days.
Just trying to GET SOMEONE to read the numbers back to you so you could verify them without "context switching" between screen and paper.
Could you imagine a PRINTED magazine today with full source code of ALL of jQuery? And a little article on how the guy felt it might be useful?  )))

Ah... memories of a chess program. I think it was for Radio Shack's Color Computer. The program listing was hex code, with a short BASIC program that read the hex code and created the runtime (I think the BASIC program validated the hex code). Fortunately, this could be saved to the external cassette tape drive....
