Why do you feel it is a waste of time?
It was a waste of time posting your comment....
And least they learned something in the process and produced something tangible to test their engineering capabilities.

What happen if it hits a human
|

It has a top speed of about 1 mph. If it hits a human it will like stop.
If it hits a human, it was probably the human not paying attention and deserved to be hit!

Lego parts everywhere on the street. Suddenly being a bodyman becomes a much more time-consuming job.

Not to mention this thing is spreading like wildfire all over the Internet. They are getting a lot of attention and you never know where that can lead. Not a waste of time at all.

Not to mention it's some impressive engineering to get it to run on compressed air!

Imagine what it could do if it ran on Hamster Power

Amazing!
But...he's lucky he doesn't live in Britain.
He'd be done for:
1) No seat belt
2) No road tax
3) No MOT (or certificate of roadworthiness from the DVLA)
4) No number plate
5) Probably no insurance...

Where they not students?
So they were probably under the influence of 'things'...

It will be road tax exempt - 0% CO emissions.

It'd need a IVA[^], but as it's 'new' there'd be no requirement for an MOT.

In 10 minutes, the day will be done, and with it, the year. Almost...
We planned to have a huge luncheon tomorrow, return Monday for a half day, then out for 2 days for Christmas. I took a couple of days' vacation time to be off from then to the end of the year. But this morning we got a memo from the Tribal Chairman - the Council has declared Monday an additional holiday! So tomorrow we're still having lunch - I'm making a Prime Rib - then taking a half day off. Since I'll be spending most of my time in the morning preparing the luncheon, I'm effectively done for the year with work about 10 minutes after I click 'Post Message' below! Yay!!!!
PS - Just got paid today, and I'll get paid again before I return at a total cost of 3 vacation days. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus!

Merry Christmas, Roger. Enjoy your break (and the ribs).
It's almost lunch time on Friday here so a few more hours and I too will be celebrating the end of a rather difficult year at work.

So I'm working with MySQL. First time in years. Don't much like the MySQL Workbench so I installed the TOAD freeware editor and it is fine though still a little heavy at times.
And then I recalled that I'd written a small app some years ago that would allow me to get a quick view of a schema and run some queries, amongst other things.
So I found a zip file that looked good and, lo and behold, out popped a working app and works pretty well.
So the next thing is to bring it up to date.
Can I find the source code? Can I hell. No idea what I did with it. The only saving grace is that it works and is usable. I can't be asked to re the thing so I guess I'll use it as is.
I just wonder where that damned code got to.

ILSpy can decompile it if you wrote it in .NET
|
|

I just downloaded JetBrains dotPeek[^]
Not only did it decompile; it saved it as a solution which I opened and built. No problem. Fabulous.

Yes, indeed, you are correct.

Much nicer than my epic reversing of a precompiled ASP.NET web site.

Chris Elston? His profile seems to be deleted, did I miss anything?
Oh, and by the way: Hereafter I am happy to get my well-deserved holidays, to finish final project #2 - Not that much free time for me - I won^t be here for a while, see you later next year.
Happy Holidays[^]

I said it to the colleagues when I left the office this afternoon.
I hope there will be enjoyement, but I doubt that there will be much to enjoy - I picked kind of a hard topic, maybe gonna make it an article when I find the time to translate ~100 pages to english.
Oh, and diagrams. Tons of class, sequence and use case diagrams.
