Thank you for the timely warning, Bill. It's been too long since I've done a full backup. Tonight is the night! Totally sympathize with you.

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Does it get hard after you wear it?

Only if you wear it out...

Beats the heck out of hardwear. 
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Why? In some situation a good suit of armor can save your life.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

In the context of something you wear, that certainly makes sense in most cases. Although I've read that a suit of armor can slow you down if you fall off your mount.
However, I was thinking in terms of wear and tear. there is normal wear that can be reasonably tolerated and then there's hardwear or usage beyond normal expectations under constant threat of a failure.
Then again, I understand that nowear is usually where conversations like this are likely to end up.

I know that word since 1979. Back then I was discussing with someone what softwarre we should order. Someone else overheard that and thought we wanted to get ourselves new caps and mittens and other stuff made off fluffy wool. It took us some time to shut him up and stop him from making an even bigger dick of himself.

I've been less active here for a while - the reason is the place where I work is migrating from flash to an HTML5/CSS/JS stack (specifically angular). All fine.
My job has been extended to include training grads -so I've been more or less using this stack for 8 months now. One thing became clear - the stack is not kind to windows users. Some of the packages don't seem to have been tested properly, but also the file-watcher in the OS is sub-par, and we use those a lot. I tried to save myself by using a linux VM, but performance was poor and the solution did not work at all.
I'm not going to sugar the pill: Gentleman, I'm migrating to a Mac*
I feel so ashamed and dirty - and not in the usual, good way. I'm off for a little weep now, and to see if I can grow a moustache.
- Work is paying for it, obviously.

It was nice to know you. I wish you all the best in your future life. Just put the keys on the entrance cabinet when leaving.

Oh that stopped ages ago. Someone managed to convince senior management that putting your development team inside a call-centre is not a productive move.

We once had an onsite dev-team working within a call centre and in it's defence I have to say that no-one ever went without a fu date should he want one.
