Job. This thing is under maintenance now  .
Currently I'm working on surface calculation of sunspots based on drawings that are scanned in and if all goes well I will also be participating in a project concerning a satellite instrument they will shoot in the sky mid 2017 .
It's not all sunshine of course, but all in all it's a fun job.

Hmm 'knobshine', I've not heard that one, but I have now thanks to the comments by some of those MENSA members!

This is the way to do the ice bucket challenge -
0. Fill a third of an ice bucket with ice.
1. Add water to the level of the ice.
2. Place a chilled bottle of fizz in the bucket.
3. Drink the wine.
I'm quite happy with the level of charitable support I make, I don't need freezing water to remind there are people worse off than me.

Will you please warn when directing to a f***book page?
Now I have to go to the trouble of disabling the account again.

There's a f***book? Who knew?

I had one for years before the site came online.

I just got an email from a recruiter. Nothing strange there. So I'm looking at the job and:
6+ years experience in html 5
"HAHAHAHA" was actually part of my response.

I'm thinking it's just laziness, or cut and pastiness as it were. 
I get offers all the tome from HH that say after reviewing my credentials that I'm qualified for a position doing mobile development or something else I've never done and never claimed to have done.
Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.

Not too bad if you can charge travelling time!

Same here... it's like they're not even trying. Of course, I just ignore them.

I remember when .NET was 1.1 and all the rage. Recruiters were regularly seeking 10 years of .NET experience for job candidates. It was silly then, it is silly now.

In fact the first public draft was released in January 2008, so if you were there from the beginning it makes it 6 years and 7 months  ...

I recently got an email from a recruiter that wanted...
Get this...
Someone fluent in Klingon. Yes, Klingon.
(The position was for a cashier at a local Meijer store)

I asked someone I know that works there (and gave him a printed copy of the email), and it turns out that the company has had issues with these guys before (the agency was fake, they took money but never sent any data to the actual companies, and they would send fake rejection emails). These things finally got the Indiana Department of <something> (can't remember what) on the case, causing the 'agency' to be shut down and all employees to be criminally convicted.
