Well, all they have to do is put in fake fire alarms. Just like the developers did with Healthcare.gov, just make it look like it works but underneath it doesn't have to because you know it will never be used.  Badump.

of course, if the furniture, mattresses and other flammable things did catch fire, and the walls started to melt, the result might be people crushed by thousands of pounds of falling ice.

Just taken a batch of fresh baked bread rolls out of the oven.
And eaten one, still hot, and slathered with butter.
Nom nom nomnomnomnom...
There are indeed some things that coding cannot match.
Never tried using an egg in a bread recipe before, but it worked! And now the whole house smells of bread

I haven't (purposely) eaten store bought bread in many years. I usually make my own bread and the ambiance and taste is unmatched by anything commercially made. For the cost of flour, yeast, a little oil, sugar, salt and water, it is also more economical.
But I don't need to heat the whole oven: the bread machine was one of the best investments I ever made. I found the bread machine at a resale store for $US 5.00, but it was missing a mixing paddle. A quick search on the internet and I had one in 2 days for an additional $US 9.00. If not, I would have made one myself from wood or heat resistant plastic. It's maybe the best $US 14.00 I ever spent.
It has more than returned the investment in satisfaction. Put in the ingredients, press the button, wait, then pull out a loaf of warm, freshly baked bread. Or stop the machine before the baking cycle, form it into rolls, and bake in a real oven without having to knead, etc. Lazy is good!

I have a bread maker, but I don't use it as much as I used to - I don't like the crust it makes that much as it doesn't toasty too well, I generally have to dig to paddle out and today I wanted nice soft buns to go
with some burgers I was making.
Instead my mixer has kneading attachments which do an ok job - a lot less work than hand kneading and nearly as good!
But the bread maker has one major plus: the timer. Set it to finish the bread for 08:00 on a Sunday and you have a reason to get out of bed!

My bread machine seems to do OK on the crusts when I put it on the darker setting. (I like crunchy crusts.)
I usually make bread when I'm working from home and set it so I have to take a lunch break when the bread is ready. Otherwise, I often work straight through without taking a break, then wonder why I'm so hungry. As a matter of fact, I have a loaf preparing right now. Should be ready for a before dinner snack.

The crusts are ok for a sandwich, but one of the beauties of making your own is being able to slice inch thick slabs of toast - and the crust on mine is like eating a handgrade when it's toasted...

From July - October this year I was working on taking a Brazilian open-source crowd funding (or "crowd sourcing") application and tailoring it for a specific niche for a group out in Denver CO. Among many of the changes, we also added a non-monetized way of "funding" a project, namely skills or resources, the idea being, if you have some skill (like website design, graphic design, got a tractor for plowing some earth? -- stuff like that) you could participate in the project as well. And being localized to Denver, the idea is to connect people directly to the projects in their neighborhoods.
We started with 3 seed projects, and one of them has exceeded its funding request! The interesting thing for me is, I've worked in this industry for 30+ years, and while I've done some really cool things, pretty much everything I've ever done has been "a job." So it was with this project as well, until this one project got its funding. It got me to sit back and I had this "wow, I've done something that allows other people to come together and do something for others" feeling. It's quite an interesting feeling, to work on something that facilitates other people's activities and dreams, rather than just working on an "end product."
The project that got funded is here if you want to take a look. I know this yet one more crowd sourcing site of several (kickstarter and indiegogo are probably the most well known) but it has been really amazing to put this together and see something fruitful actually come of it. So I thought I'd share. I can only imagine how neat it will be when there are (potentially) hundreds of these local projects going on in Denver.

Am I wrong to declare VB .Net is the best programing language ever.
Is there any one who can pin point the things VB can't do while other languages can do.

I have to use VB.Net for work.
Personal projects are C#.
