Going to have to xerox this for my wall.


Someone ought to give them a kleenex for all of their boo-hooing.


Some young folks probably need to google what xeroxing means


But after the changing pampers, please.


It is the Cadillac of search engines, after all-- a real doozy.


I laughed so hard that I needed a bandaid.


Whoa buddy, let's do a quick zoom first.


Apple II, DOS and PRODOS calls do that too.

Nope, just explosive rapid deconstruction.


>stuck on an old OS release (i.e. RHEL?) and/or they don't build their own version and use the "system" Perl.

I build my containers and put Perl right in them. Makes the container a little chubbier but no outside dependencies.


And would be awesome if it gave out the current time.


I have a SuperNote that is a decent PDF viewer and notetaker.

> window snapping/tiling

Put me in the camp that hates window snap/tiling.

I have a certain workflow that needs this window there, and this one here ... don't snap to a location or go full screen.


Check out FancyZones in Microsoft PowerToys.

2nd'd & 3rd'd ...

You hired a 50 man lumberjack crew to cut down a sapling.

I've been spending a some time to remove IBM MQ out and going to "simpler" queuing solutions. First of all, cost. Guess what, we're not getting anything out of licensing per year to justify the cost.

With improving the end points, we don't need all that complexity. With 5 9's uptime on the network and smarter end points, retrying messages isn't expensive.

As always, YMMV.


Woof.

MSRP: $3,499.00 USD Regular price$2,699.00 USD


It's a significantly different segment than the Quest or Valve Index-- somewhere in between a Varjo and a Valve Index.

With better economies of scale, we would be able to drop the price more/introduce more segmentation. As is we just have too many NRE costs that drive the price up.

>not only did the address wrap around to 0, ...

Very reminisce of the 6502 "issue" of jumping with an address on a page boundary.

Per Wikipedia:

the processor will not jump to the address stored in xxFF and xxFF+1 as expected, but rather the one defined by xxFF and xx00 (for example, JMP ($10FF) would jump to the address stored in 10FF and 1000, instead of the one stored in 10FF and 1100). This defect continued through the entire NMOS line, but was corrected in the CMOS derivatives.
