Argh. Probably. I've been dealing with way to much CSS lately.

This short film[^] (of 6 minutes) is a great animated movie by a student director.
I believe we should start to learn to let go of Avengers. Marvel didn't do their best! This one has a great story and a great start.

One of my best friends girlfriend (of a few years) had a heart surgery last week.
Just a simple standard procedure, hadn't gone wrong in 16 years.
They can reset the counter...
Apparently some monitor showed the wrong data and they messed up.
They found out after the surgery when they gave her a shot of adrenaline and her heart beat didn't go up.
Poor girl lay there, awake, but partly anesthetized, and heard the doctors shout and cry in another room.
The doctor that was watching the monitor started to hyperventilate and got carried away on a stretcher.
That's not what you want to hear when you just had heart surgery.
Long story short, she's doing okay, but her heart beat can't go over 80 or 90 per minute anymore.
She's up for a pacemaker at her 24th.
Not the end of the world, but they had a pretty crappy end of the week nonetheless.
Makes you wonder though, how and why could it go wrong after 16 years of success?

Overconfidence?
Normal Doctor attitude of omniscience? Normally followed by the "Oh sh*t", "I did nothing wrong", and "Not my fault..." phases.
Sorry to hear about the lady - hope she recovers (as best she can) soon. ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

Could be, but that wasn't a problem in the past 16 years...

The doctor was carried away on a stretcher, so I guess at least he felt a little guilty...

Not sure it'll get that far...
I don't think my friends have legal insurance and it's pretty expensive to hire a lawyer.
Besides, the whole situation is bad enough as it is, a lawsuit won't make her heal and it only costs a lot of time and effort.
And money if you're not on the winning side too! And I'm not sure how much money could be won in such a case, especially if the fault isn't clearly human.
The operations are covered by the mandatory health insurance that all Dutch people have.
We Dutch don't have much of a sue culture

Must be one of the most ridiculous movies of all time.
I saw it yesterday and couldn't decide whether to cringe or laugh.
It's an extreme parody of the action movies from the eighties made as a kickstarter almost without a budget.
Also expect loads of references to eighties computer games and hackers, as well as laser shooting dinosaurs and a Kung Fu fighting Hitler and especially for V: The worst one liners in history.
"Knock knock"
"Who's there"
"Knuckles"
Oh, and the lead soundtrack[^] is by the Hoff.
If you still want to see it despite my warnings, it's available on youtube[^].

But...does it have sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads?

No.
But isn't that a nineties movie?

Don't care. If it's got The Hoff on tunes, I ain't touching it unless it has got sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads!

He was at the right place at the right time with the right song.
The Berlin wall, at the reunification, singing... Ok two out of three. 
Who's Norman Wisdom?

Norman Wisdom[^]
And a more embarrassing excuse for an "actor" the world did not get to see until Nicolas Cage started his career...

Norman was perhaps not a great actor but was a great singer and a total expert at pratfalls!

After watching Google IO Keynote I think it's time to switch to Android, despite the annoying issues of Android.
Specially the new UI with Material Design is very nicely done.
Quick recap in 10 minutes[^]
I am currently using Windows Phone. It works just fine but I think Microsoft is taking too long to catch-up. I don't know why they are so slow. The Outlook Mail app, which is very good on iOS and Android is not even available for Windows Phone. Windows Phone 10's new features looks like a minor version, more like a v 8.2.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

I was told to look at Google's Project Vault.
So, I opened http://www.google.com
I entered "Google Project Vault"
Not one page from google itself, while there are hits all over the place from Cnet and dozens of others.
Is there a way to get straight to the horse's mouth on all this ?

My guess is that Google doesn't have a site up for this yet (unlikely, but possible).

Look here: [^].
This is a Google ATG project that ... my guess is ... is not ready for prime-time, and they are keeping it "low-profile," for now.

Just spent 20 minutes there.
Looked at five, maybe ten files.
No clue what I was viewing.
