<sarcasm>As an MBA who discussed (but didn't have time to read) a case study on programming, I know it's not possible to expect you to do complete a task in less time than it will take. After all, maybe you've heard the expression "nine women can't make a baby in one month". I'm not an idiot.

Hoever, my research has revealed that one woman can develop 1-to-N babies in a single node. And one man can help instantiate 1-to-N babies in multiple nodes. This is why I'm a fan of diversity hiring. As you can see, I have a strong understanding of message passing, concurrency, parallelism, the actor model, and multiple inheritance.

Now, given that we've established that I understand what you do, allow me, and all of your other bosses, give you an immutable set of instructions for you to process in that finite state machine you call a job.

Now that we're on the same page, can you show me how to use BitTorrent? I want to download the last season of Game of Thrones. My 401K includes an S&P 500 index fund, which owns shares of Time Warner, which owns HBO. So it's like I already own that content. Also, how do I erase my browser history? I accidentally visited a website with pop up ads, and my browser is filled with porn. Don't worry about the downloads those ads were triggered though, as I can delete those files myself.</sarcasm>




i found that comment pretty hilarious but i think you're getting downvoted because it's more suited to a site like reddit.


I accept my punishment.
