If anybody tells you I fell into that one twice this afternoon they're liars and you shouldn't trust them, alright?

So that's why so much code is somnambulant!

Heh, I'm surprised he would work for a company that was so stupid/ignorant as to not recognize who he is.

I'd never work for a company that tried to make me take a C++ proficiency test...

Cary Grant told a story of turning up for an internal flight when he was the Hollywood leading man and being greeted with a cheery "Good morning Mr Grant! I'll need to see some ID please." Sometimes procedure replaces common sense...

I'm glad my brain and nervous system automates a bunch of the stuff the other organs do, though. Imagine having to remember to breathe all the time...

I must say I've never read it. Does Marlowe have to remember to breathe a lot or something?

We once got to the airport and found our airline's staff logging check-ins by hand. Don't know if true or not, but the story we heard was that there had been a fire in their data center, and the backup data center was in the same building.

At least the safety record suggests that their pilots are a bit better at their jobs...

One of the first data centers I designed around 1995, the research labs were located on San Andreas fault lines. We used reflexive memory and multiple disk drives to duplicate the databases locally, and co-located to a secure commercial data center off major faults.

Mirrored the co-lo with a secure site on the East Coast. Low earthquake risk but high hurricane and storm risks. Oh yeah, the joke:

I built something similar for an online travel startup, carefully choosing a mirror site on Long Island, NY. Then a new CEO hired an "expert" Director who had once worked at Oracle. After I retired, they moved the mirror to Newark NJ where a cousin worked at a startup (dot com era). Last I heard they suffered two break ins with equipment theft, one fire with halon release on the replacement servers, then the Newark site folded.

So it goes, to quote Kurt Vonnegut.
