   Anyone running old machinery that had DOS drivers would likely have older computers. I remember working on base seeing 386/486s in an aircraft hanger area that were so covered in grime I was astounded they were still used.

   No one forces you to use MS products, a MS OS VM or C#. So it's not 'necessary', it's a choice you're making.

   You should tell them and your managers. For every 1/2 day you sit watching the machine, they could be getting double the workload out of you. As a consultant and contractor this is the first thing I point out. However, it's their

   You're a developer, not an end user. You use a slow machine for testing, not building. This is like saying my fucking carpenter shouldn't use power saws. Maybe you should have gotten a better machine then. If by a few years ago yo

    Lmao 5200rpm drive. Yeah that's clearly Windows/Parallels' fault. Developers not using SSDs is like a race car driver using an Impala off the car lot for a race.

    Oklahoma has an extraordinarily high rate of uninsured drivers. The tree that crushed my car was a result of an ice storm. We get those frequently as well. (My entire lot is covered in trees.)

    The NSA fear killed a project I was working on. I got it to the point of working (proof of concept) because the nonsense they are trying against the Megaupload founder (I'm not on his side either, but I felt we need a safe harbor softw

    I'm moved back to Oklahoma. The only thing that went up was my car insurance. I thought it was nonsense, but 3 hail storms, crushed car (tree limbs), tornado and 2 hit and run drivers (likely uninsured). I can see why. I pay about 200

    Come on man, everyone knows solid state amps > shitty 1950s tube amps! ;-) Sarcasm aside, the modeling amp I'm looking at getting has a tube in it (Vox VT40X, 12AX7). I love my JVM410H but it's nice to not share with the entire

    Facebook acquaintances. Lives diverge, it's not a big deal. I still consider them friends, just not close friends like they were before moving out there.

    I live in a world full of people that love talking about doing things, but very few of them actually do anything. This is how I moved to SF. Talked about doing a startup with friends. Move out there and they'd all rather smoke weed and

    I worked at restaurants with id based POS systems (pre touch screen, you just typed in numbers for every item). Then the touch screens came out, so slow in comparison. The learning curve was faster but the operations were terrible in compar

    I had one of these 2-3 years ago, it was pretty amazing to be honest. I hadn't gotten a virus in so long I was impressed at how much they'd stepped up their game. Even fdisk /mbr from a windows bootdisk wouldn't get it.

    As a former auditor, your "no legal evidence" is comically wrong. They own the people that would prosecute them.

    It's amazing how many of these apply to the company I just quit. I emailed it to their lead developer. Hilarious and depressing at the same time.

    1. 100x higher? That's f'ing nonsense. (Although, I grew up in a family of entrepreneurs, so maybe my baseline was vastly different.) 2. Mostly agree, you're not doomed, but it's certainly harder. Capital requirements ar
