I thought he was a really cool dude. I was cracking up over his rat-organ comments. Regardless, he knew his shit and I didn't feel he was ever being "bossy". I think a couple of times it was like, hey, I know what I'm doing, I've done this before, your idea ain't gonna work. But he was never...

They keep hounding us to write unit tests, but the problem is our application is so old it's inherently untestable. New stuff we can unit tested, sure, but changes or additions to legacy code? Forget it. Our app is an ASP.NET Web Forms which has so much business logic written into the code...

What doesTomorrow Landhave to do with Tron? Tron: Legacy actually had pretty decent box office numbers I thought?

The problem we have is, considering the whole developer / QA thing, is that neither understands the domain logic. It's like, product owner: "hey, we need you to add an additional safety check to our nuclear reactor controller software." dev: "Yeah, but I don't understand how the current...

Okay, so what's a reasonable price for an Apple iPad Air 2? All I care about is WiFi and the cheapest I can find on Amazon is ~$440. Honestly, other tablets, like the Samsung Tab S or whatever, isn't exactly way cheaper.

Calista Flockhart has always been sort of odd-looking. But for 50 years old she looks quite bangable to me. But, I admit, I like skinny.

Looking for tablet recommendations for my 72-year old mother. She's not technically savvy and struggles with the Windows 8 PC I set up for her (how she keeps managing to get a metro app to cover half the screen is beyond me). I fucking hate Apple (irrational dislike from my Commodore days, I...

She's more cute than "hot". I do, however, think she looks the part. I liked that they settled for the more conservative outfit. Although I, being the hyper-straight male that I am, enjoyed the more skin-baring ones.

Oh, come on. The effects were pretty damned good for a TV show. There were only a couple of places where the CGI looked a little off. But the fight scenes were fantastic. Straight out of Justice League Unlimited.

Which is floating in water...

That fucking trailer did the pilot NO justice. CBS may have itself a real winner with this one.

I'm telling you, they're all in the Matrix.

If it's a public company, be prepared for an initial house cleaning. Any under performers will immediately get the boot just to show you who is in charge.

Out of curiosity, what kind of tests do they throw at you?

Can someone give me a run-down of what significant happened this past season? I really don't feel like slogging through 20+ episodes. Just a quick summary and then I'll watch the last couple of episodes. Maybe.

Honestly, I wish I had just waited on the PS4 purchase. I have no doubt I would have bought one eventually but probably when it had dropped to $299 and revision 2 of the console. The Blu-Ray drive spin-up sound annoys me. My PS3 is completely silent. I'm not as demanding as I used to be...

Wait, didn't Juliette get on the helicopter? What was she doing while the Royal old dude got shoved out the door? "Just drop me off at Nick's"? I thought for sure it was Nick's mom that called Truble. That, somehow, it was all some clever ruse to expose the Royals or something. Guess it...

Professional ASP.NET MVC 5: Jon Galloway, Brad Wilson, K. Scott Allen, David Matson: 9781118794753: Amazon.com: Books The author works through building an online music store app which includes user authorization and security.

You may want to consider Microsoft ASP.NET MVC framework. User account management and security is baked into one of the template options. Obviously, though, you still will want to understand what's going on. I've been working through a MVC5 book and it's pretty sweet. Microsoft has become...

You know, I'm wondering if there's something one can do about the mosquitoes. That has been the consistent bane of existence for every survivalist. Could one weave some type of blanket out of leaves or whatever and lie under it? Would that help at all?

SHE MALFUNCTIONED, YO She was cute but that damn mouth would get old right damn quick. Wasn't too impressed by the dude either. Also, I call bullshit that he lost his water at the beginning of his trek and made it out without assistance. No way you could go a day and half walking miles in...

StyleCop is one I've considered recommending. Ironically, code checked in today had public method names with underscores and all lower case. Bizarre shit.

Speaking of code reviews, this is how we do it: developer finishes task, sends an email out saying, "hey need someone to review my code." Random available person picks it up, looks over it briefly and gives a "thumbs up" 99% of the time. I don't think I've ever had someone question why I'm...

For you guys that are on development teams -- how does your team enforce code styles? I guess I'm "one of those guys" that is extremely anal over variable and method names. But our team has no consistency at all -- these people are all over the place. I realize styles have changed over time...

Seriously considering going for one of those Herman-Miller Aerons. My lower back is fucking killing me lately. However, has anyone tried one of those kneeling chairs? I'm wondering how comfortable one of those can be.

Maybe Bitsie Tulloch wants off the show? Ain't no going back for Juliette now. And she's not that great of an actress to become the main antagonist. But who knows. Writing hasn't been that great. Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio must no longer be available so I'm guessing that's the reason...

Why would you have to bein the office? If I have to work extra hours I'll be doing it at home.

Behold:

Yeah, this bothered me too. Fighting the Hulk would have had the exact opposite effect Tony wanted.

I think I was most drawn to Helen Cho, despite her limited screen time.

Decent movie, but not as good as the first. I'm not familiar with the comic Ultron character, but it always bugs me a little when robots / A.I.s act human. Maybe Ultron took on some characteristics of Stark? Not sure, but every time Ultron spoke I kept seeing Red Reddington. Also, yeah...

Here's one: people dreaming or remembering in the third person. Not sure about you, but I don't have out-of-body experiences while remembering some past event.

Watched the pilot last night. I enjoyed it, although not sure of its longevity. Could be another LOST in that regard.

Pilot ep is out in the usual places.

I believe she's a character from the comics so her dying is probably unlikely.

They usually show their item choices but not this time. POOF! fire starter.

Wow, that dude WTFPWNED that challenge. Although, surprisingly, he lost about the same amount of weight as most "contestants".

Not sure how Barry's current speed compares to Marvel's Quicksilver -- but we saw how absolutely ridiculously powerful super speed can be inDays of Future Past. No way Snart and pal would stand a chance.

Wow, Carol was actually kinda hot in that dress. I really like this show. Not sure why it receives so much hate here.

First episode was pretty funny. The ship's A.I. is right up there in hotness with Lexa Doig.
