Went to school with a Willy Siemen. Quite a good athelete if I recall correctly.

RE: Google adsense ads on TheDailyWTF..
Woah, that time cube guy is seriously wired!
My favourite internut is www.deltastarr.org (I have read the 'Portfolio
of a Genius' cover to cover and still enjoy returning to it from time
to time. Imagine how the world would be if we all had this kind of
passion!)

RE: Google adsense ads on TheDailyWTF..
It does indeed have the ability to import form text, and also to link
to a csv file (or similar) and treat it as a read-only table in the
system. It can also link to a variety of other formats and treat them
as tables in the system.

heh heh heh.
Though I think the appropriate term might be Devolutionary.

1. Vær som dine forfedre eller vær annerledes. Det spiller ingen rolle.
2. Den sterkeste skal overleve men den svake skal få leve allikevel.
3. Voks deg stor eller forbli liten.
4. Legg en million egg eller klekk ett. Slik skal ætten overleve.
5. Ubrukte organer skal forsvinne eller bestå.
6. Vinn en make ved kamp eller la være.
7. Bekjemp dine naboer eller slipp dem fri.
8. Gå med glorete klær eller unngå oppmerksomhet. Det er det samme.
9. Utvikle ben, vinger, hale hvis du vil -- de kan enten hjelpe deg eller ikke hjelpe deg.
10. Vi må gjenta!

RE: The Results Are In
Analysis of the Breakdown of the Count
5113 - 4812 = 301 duplicate votes
301 - 48 = 253 duplicates from 'other' people (who didn't vote 49 times)
Number of duplicate voters = 3.4% of 4812 = 164
So, number of duplicate voters who didn't vote 49 times = 163
Average number of duplicate votes per duplicate voter = 253/163 = 1.55
Since votes can only occur as whole numbers, at least 90 people voted only one extra time.
It is possible that everyone except one other person voted one extra
time, but that would mean that the one extra person would have had to
have voted 92 times (including a single valid vote), which is more than
49, so this was not the case.
Two people could have voted 47 times (including valid votes) and the
rest voted only one extra time. This is the best (most honest)
scenario. In this scenario, 161 people absent-mindedly forgot to ink
their fingers, or possibly inked the incorrect finger after the first
vote and voted a second time.

RE: C#
I've been a VB/VBA developer since ... well, put it this way, my second
commercial project was written in GW-BASIC on IBM-XT computer (8086
processor, 640k RAM, we had dual 5.25" floppies, and a 20Mb hard drive!
Way cool.)
Recently I decided to go to C# instead of VB.NET, and have found it
really easy to use and develop with. I'm writing some security software
(web services, site scanners, etc) as an exercise to help me learn, but
enjoying it.
I did some of the Microsoft courses (through work) and they helped to
nail the fundamentals, but there are also heaps of great books around,
not to mention good forums.

RE: Google adsense ads on TheDailyWTF..
Well, it may be a starting point, but proof of the existance of an
Intelligent Creator is not necessarily disproof of evolution. It would
seem odd to me to ascribe intelligence to any entity that couldn't come
up with a way of automating the process of creation, but perhaps that's
just the developer in me chiming up.
Don't get me started on the ID crowd, though. Let's not start implying
that religion has anything to do with science (or vice versa.)

Yes, agreed. I especially enjoy the ads for rubber stamps appearing on the 'Let's get a logo' thread.
