Plenty of comment necessary. Models give up the rights to their image to be paid for the shoot. Why is it that a century of legal and moral president needs to be thrown out because someone says they don't like it? The only person with

There's not much of a debate. Windows as a server is dead outside sme shops. This isn't the 90s anymore. But it is very nostalgic hearing people talk up microsoft. It's not something I'd heard in the last 15 years.

We all know why that is. In the $current_year things are so hilariously sexist that I pass my work off as my wife's so I can make more money pretending to be her. Makes me wonder how many great men of the past were actually their wives

Some advice: move to emacs regardless of what editor you use. Evil mode is the best vi clone there is. Use paredit for any lisp like language, you are editing the sexpression tree directly, not it's incidental textual representation. U

That you think assembly is fundamental rather than an accident of architecture really shows how undereducsted you are in computer science. Lisp isn't great because it's weird, it's great because it lucked into homoiconicity i
