Hi All,
Got to work wet but not soaking thanks to the long rain coat I have been wearing all week for two reasons a)Only just remembered I had it b) only clean(ish) coat at the moment. So truding from the station looking like a mixture of down at heel Neo & Pervert (long coat, sleepy expression), suddenly today I look like a responsible member of society (it's raining quite heavily). Get to work and swear like a drunk marine as I don't have any keys to get in. While I am waiting get two deliveries of various sorts in cardboard boxes that have "No Wet!" in various languages plastered all over them. Finally Boss shows up! Get in, swear again as no hot water. Loudest swear as exchange server has fallen over...

Perfect!
I shall start writing comments in assembly!
They'll still be easier to read than a lot of the comments I have to wade through.

Done that just three days ago. I'm building a small 8 bit computere and am writing a simple BIOS and diagnostic to put into the ROM.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

How about the old computers that needed fresh oil once in a while and broke down when the gears ran dry?

In the Neteherlands we had a radioshow that broadcasted computerprograms. You had to record it on a cassette and you could use that with your commodore 64.
The problem was int he eighties you could have not a good receive over the air (OTA was then different) and your program did not work.
The sound that was broadcasted from these programs was sometimes horrifying.

How does it say goodbye to its mother ?
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

That's a pretty dense question.

perhaps it's a non-event ?

There are too many of those. The accretion of information about such garbage eventually fills your disc, and you have to throw it away.

Hi Mark,
I cannot explain why your comment reminds me of this recent reportage in the Asahi Shimbun: [^].
cheers, Bill

That's an interesting observation, because I have to agree that the words "accretion" and "fart" seem to form a perfect partnership.
But your post, in turn, brought to my mind the autobiographical works of the late, great Spike Milligna, the well-known typing error.
