10:06AM? That's oddly specific.

It's just shaking because it's as long as 0 bicycles, and the physical problem of being constrained to a 2 dimensional space in a 3 dimensional universe causes instabilities.

Who doesn't like rescanning their SCSI devices with
echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/scan
A madman, that's who.
The ATM is located on a hill which caused it to be built so low to the ground.
Yes, it is clearly geography that is at fault here. Who knew a hill was going to be there?

Ruby on Rails uses SQLite as its default database backend.Well sure, that'd be a gigantic WTF if anyone was silly enough to do something like load more than 100 records into a SQLite instance. There's a hint somewhere in the name.So if you have a table with a billion records and you want to remove a column, it takes over two billion queries
Now, then, as I so meticulously pointed out, the four most-used passwords are: love, sex, secret, and...seinfeld?

@Faxmachinen said:Such as a function call and a switch-statement
Wow, that is a great solution... Why confine variables to local scope when you can just make everything a global?
Lets be fair, he could encapsulate all the variables in a struct and then copy it around for every single function call. That would obviously be far better.
I've just stared at that list for the past few minutes, trying to get into the mindset of the person who designed it so I can understand their logic. So far I've failed. Possibly because I'm drunk, but then looking at that list, I'd have thought being drunk was a prerequisite.

@Vanders said:Besides, that's how it was done in 1987, so why change it?Wrong date; that's either too recent or too long ago. It's too long ago for the web (especially in the UK, which used its own weird-ass scheme at the time) and too recent for most CS departments, which ossified in the 1960s.And yes, I work in a CS department.

http://www.cs.bris.ac.ukI was told by a member of the department that it was "expected behaviour".
It in no way surprises me that a university CS department would be pedantic about such a thing. Besides, that's how it was done in 1987, so why change it?
That reminds me of something...
