Quote: I like it
Glad to know ...
There is some musical quality in this track, and I like the story behind it
(remote cooperation between someone in Paris and someone in Tokyo … and the result is remarkable),
BR,

Awesome song. My fave Beth & Joe tune is Close to My Fire, this is a close second.

Like the Titanic, once certain actions are set into motion, the result of 12-14 billion years of atomic collisions and quantum entanglements, there's not much that can be done to change the course.

Javascript is like the ex-wife. You end up paying alimony for the rest of your life. And that's if you can actually get divorced. The judge tries to get you into marriage counseling -- You just need a new angular on life, it'll change your vue, you'll react so much better to stress. It'll rekindle the ember you once had.
Yeah, riiight.

OK, it's a slow day...
Came across this in a man page, describing output formatting for a frequently used command:
A `%' character followed by any other character is discarded, but the other character is printed (don't rely on
this, as further format characters may be introduced). A `%' at the end of the format argument causes undefined
behaviour since there is no following character. In some locales, it may hide your door keys, while in others it
may remove the final page from the novel you are reading.
For extra rep points, name the command. (I'll upvote correct answers.) Anyone that does something involving wildcards and grep is automatically disqualified.

Format Directives - Finding Files[^]
If it's any consolation, I was bored rigid writing the ISO9000 manual for my company back in the last century, so I added a "Dogs Inward Procedures" section which dealt with the care and snack feeding of dogs in the office, and the correct procedures for throwing sticks. As far as I know, it's still there.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

And when ISO came to inspect - they told nothing? Or the dog was on vacation?

ISO 9000 isn't about quality - it's about procedures. As long as you do exactly what your Quality Manual says you should do, you will pass ISO inspection - even if it is manifestly stupid! 
Remember ISO inspectors aren't developers, or hardware engineers, or even accountants - they are document specialists (or more often recent-graduates-who-work-cheap-and-can't-get-a-job-anywhere-else-with-that-degree specialists)

Oh, and "dogs" plural - we worked in a coach house overlooking the orchard and there could be seven or eight dogs roaming around. Nice, relaxing atmosphere - if you have a coding problem there is nothing like throwing a ball round the orchard for dogs to play with to sort it out in your head!

Close enough. My quote is from the man page for GNU find, as packaged with Ubuntu. They used those last two sentences, but the preceding bit is different.
On a related note, the now-obsolete documentation for part of a VICTAB system, in the glossary of terms, included several derogatory "definitions" relating to brands of motor cars and other unrelated "stuff".

Good morning, Visual Basic! Hey, this is not a unit test. This is rock and roll. Time to rock it from the delegate to the lambda expression! Is that me, or does that sound like an Elvis Delphi movie? Viva Da Nang. Oh, viva, Da Nang. Da Nang me, Da Nang me. Why don't they get a rope and hang me? Hey, is it a little too early for being that loud? Hey, too late. It's 05:30! What's the "0" stand for? Oh, my God, it's early.
And I'd like to take questions from the audience: You sir, in the C++ tie?

No idea - Herself was snoring, the cat was walking on my bladder, and the sun was aloft on what looks like another Glorious day in the People's Republic of Cymru (South).

Apparently not.

Say that again, with feeling.

My feelings exactly.

I didn't think that stuff grew in Cymru (South). I thought it needed a dryer, sunnier climate.
Well, who knew!

It's not called "grass" for nothing; it grows anywhere.
(Maybe not in Antarctica  )
