Actually if you're smelling furniture polish it's probably someone drinking lemon tea. Absolutely indistinguishable.

So many things are just like the other thing.

You can never have too many compilers.

Ugh.

I needed to compile GCC 3.4.6 to compile GCC 4.7.3. Which might, perhaps, compiler GCC 4.8.1. Then, maybe, I can compile GCC 5.1.4, which doesn't exist yet, but it's a good idea to prepare.

Looks like a smoke alarm is warning us that it needs its batteries replaced or something. It occasionally sounds like a bird is chirping inside the building.

Which is becoming hyper-annoying.

I should remember this, in case I want to pull a practical joke around here.

I wrote some time ago that I enhance my craft through constant but controlled failure, as an engineer.

I'm experiencing a heck of a lot more failure recently than usual. Heh.

so then transitively, this should make you a much more enhanced engineer, then...

Yes. It should. We'll see if that's true.

Enhanced??? So many interpretations there.

Yes, it comes bundled in a little blue capsule.

I'm sure *I*'ll be bundled in a bit.

Heh... added a few more puns for you guys.

Bundled in a white coat with extra long sleeves I would think.

Assuredly.

Anytime you're forced to use a very old, obscolete OS, you want to make a sad face.

Something creepy to consider at the workplace...

So, I had a warm welcome over at http://arangodb.org - looking forward to the next workday. Only problem: way back home by roadbike took only 13 minutes - thats way to short. I'll have to find a longer way.

Start bicycling in the opposite direction of where you live, and see if you can get to China?

fleeb - it is not always within 8 hours.

bart - time to discover some alternate ways to go to work.

If everyone on Earth were to simultaneously bicycle from west to east would it slow down the rotation of the planet?

Watch the full 5 minutes to get it.  Not what you put in to any effort, but what you learn along the way.  If you give up, you give up on quite a bit.  Simplistic, but eye opening all at the same time.  Learn from failure at the same time as playing it out to the end (if you can).
