DYK ~ I think "Lithium" needs some lithium!!!!!


DYK LOL what they need is to be given a "thanks for trying" and a severance check.

Now.

DYK the post count total for the board is off now?

DYK I imagine when they added the post counts to our visible profile they f'd up the post count totals...and the PM feature.

DYK one step forward and two steps back.

DYK what would happen to you if you performed similarly at your job ... 11 months after you took over the project?

DYK apparently here ... it is.

DYK we are held accountable to a high level of performance.

DYK when you expect "the best" from people, often you will get it.

DYK I am unusually hung up on the "counting " issue.

DYK why its so hard to count something like posts?

DYK you start with one, and the next one is two. You keep going until there are no more left to count.

DYK apparently this counting is very challenging.

DYK God help us if they ever get control of something more substantive.

DYK if they store the posts as a tree, then walk the tree to get a post count, but they can't handle deep branches or wide trees then counting all the leaves gets to be a problem

DYK that was just a shoot from the hip thing
DYK I don't do databases in general
DYK we had a b-tree to store definitions in
DYK as you put data in if the table pivoted (balanced itself) then all the definitions before the last inserted went missing
DYK I fixed it and was a hero.

DYK why they're dysfunctional?
DYK it was more of a dysfunctional friendship than a dysfunctional friend
DYK how "a friend in need is a pain in the arse"
DYK I was a pain in the arse
DYK she had no problems until I said "I've got a problem" and she completely shut me out, claiming to have enough big problems of her own.
DYK in 9 minutes IM'ing I undid 9 months of what I'd been led to believe was a friendship.
DYK I do still have moments of guilt, remorse over it, but mostly it's relief
DYK it didn't help that she flirted with me often
DYK it didn't help that I developed a crush on her.

DYK my musical tastes are all over the place.
DYK Yuki Kajiura's composing style is almost as diverse as my tastes.
DYK she is Japanese, but writes songs in Latin and her own made up language.
DYK some of her music is simply operatic, others are like French accordian pieces, others out and out J-Pop.
DYK at times she composes music that sounds like Jean Michel Jarre or even Vangelis.
DYK she composes for Anime soundtracks
DYK she looks like this

DYK my CD collection goes from Abba to ZZ Top.

DYK even if I had any Aaron Neville, he would not come before Abba, but next to Morrisey and Nickleback.

DYK my most expensive vinyl was an early pressing of Mr Fantasy by Traffic -the original mono edition, not the stereo release.

DYK my most expensive CD is my Yuki Kajiura, and is a soundtrack album from some Anime.

DYK my Cryoshell CD which I imported from Denmark shows up on Windows Media Player with Japanese track listing

DYK the last CD I bought was Massive Attacks 100th Window.

DYK Cryoshell has had a lot of play time in the US

DYK they made the soundtrack music for the Lego Bionicle adverts

DYK it took them ages to get a CD together

DYK it took them even longer to get the international release.

DYK they sound like this
