iPlagiarize

It is not often that I sympathize with high school kids but you gotta applaud this effort.  I mean you really do have to or Gino breaks your knees.

This video of the Red Bull stunt helicopter is totally awesome.

Sorta like getting dyslexic when typing < and > in loops.

What Code not to Write

Here’s a snip of something not to write…

sub render() {
  [...]
  # render children
  foreach $child (@{$self->{childSegments}}) {
  $output .= $self->render();
  }
  [...]
}

Instead, know what you’re doing and not call the same thing over and over again…


sub render() {
  [...]
  # render children
  foreach $child (@{$self->{childSegments}}) {
  $output .= $child->render();
  }
  [...]
}

It’s a little bit that every developer should know not to do. And yes, I just did that and wondered why my program would just sit there…

If the wife is not feeling well

And this causes me to clean the cat box (a normally pink job) does this mean she has to clean the dog’s contribution to our back yard once she feels better?

Animal Rights activists taste soo good with hummus.

Re: Conversations

Maybe the person was referring to something like this puppy bakery. First you get puppy mills, then puppy bakeries. Next thing there will be cafes where you can get a puppy latte and a crumpet.

Now that I think about it if you have a puppy with you at the cafe you could probably use it to get the slang meaning of crumpet as well.

I’m fairly sure that PETA is not really in favor of eating dogs though. Not even in bread.

Update: So I actually went back and read  this article after linking to it based on the headline and it is a pretty good read.  However, my dog is off limits for eating.  My wife’s cat is fair game though.

This is what you get when you work with me. It’s just amazing.

Person A: PETA is one of the most ridiculous organizations in the world.

Person B: I really love the bread they make.

Person A: I didn’t know they baked bread…

Tax Tax Baby…

Check out my Civil Procedure Professor get his rap on… word.

On a more personal note, if he had rapped during class last year, maybe I’d know how to properly certify a class action and not vaguely remember such requirements as numerousity and typicality…
