The thing I haven't figured out yet is whether this is the brake engaged when you shift an automatic transmission into park, or if it is the emergency brake. If the latter, I'm not sure what the big deal is, since you should almos

It's less than a decade from the cutoff date after which books stopped entering the public domain, so by Project Gutenberg standards, it is pretty modern.

I'd have to put the two Kevin Costner post-apocalyptic flops on the list - Waterworld and The Postman. The Postman rankles especially, since it was a pretty decent book that was butchered badly https://en.wikipedia.org/

What a travesty that was... L Ron Hubbard is very hit or miss, but the actual Battlefield Earth novel was one of his better efforts. I'd like to see a Final Blackout[1] movie adaptation... [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/w

Reminds me of the scene from the Into the Wild movie - McCandless is working in a McDonalds-alike fast food joint, and the camera lingers on a signs that says "It's O.K. to waste fries"

Logs only save if you have S4B synced with your Outlook... Which you don't really want to do, because it will randomly toggle your presence status based on what it thinks your calendar is, and frequently causes issues with your .ost ma

I've got at least three different Microsoft accounts with the same email address. Supposedly there's a way to link them, so that this becomes less of a clusterfuck, but I've never been able to make that work. So it's j

It's not uncommon that we get responses back from people we email about support renewals after the first year that indicate the software was never installed, and everyone who knew about it is no longer at the company. I assume people m

Seriously. NPM/bower downloads are at least 50% of our CI build time - which also includes compiling a largish C# solution, running unit tests, generating PDF documentation, building an installer, and putting everything through ReShar

It sounds like you are describing C# with Entity Framework. Throw in the self-hosted OWIN webserver and WebApi or Nancy and you're good to go. I'm not really up on the state of DotNet Core or whatever they are calling it this wee

Knowing how to use npm and what packages are useful isn't something that is flashed into your brain when you click download on the Node website.

Sometimes, there's no substitute for println debugging. Particularly with real-time, concurrent code where you're interacting with an external system, bringing a thread to a halt in your debugger causes all sorts of false-positive

If the pond isn't very deep, and there's no streams or anything else coming into it that would oxygenate the water, usually the fish would die because of that. Happens all the time around here if water levels change drastically (

They were on console, and were from Japan, but Shining Force and Shining Force II (I haven't played the rest) are not really JRPGs, in the classical sense. The turn-based tactical combat is more like XCOM or Fallout than the typical F

Deal with both of these shitshows on a regular basis. They are exactly this bad. It's almost never worth it in the long run when they come in as opportunities to resell software.

Of course it's a valid framework. But the cool kids have all moved onto Angular2, or React, or some other thing I'm too stuck in the mud to even know about.

Plumbers and electricians are still locked into the vestiges of the medieval guild system. You start as an apprentice, after some years and qualifications progress to journeyman, and then after much experience and credentialing rate as a ma

Five and a half years, actually, and no plans on going anywhere. Working for a small, stable, lifestyle business does have some perks.
