The big problem with something like that is you have no idea what the alternative would be.
for example no Hitler, but Germany needed someone strong and charismatic to drag them from recession so we get someone similar but what if they were also a competent military commander and less impulsive or at least would listen to his generals
Germany may not have lost the War
or how about no Hitler so no German rearmament but Stalin let loose, would Europe have been better with Stalin on the rampage rather than Hitler?
it's could definitely be a case of careful what you wish for

Uh? Every day is better than the last, who would want to!

Purely hypothetical, but I'm curious to know what people would wish for, and why.

They just updated their website tool. Looks pretty good

If you need to test your regular expressions, this tool is amazing.
Scissors cuts paper, paper covers rock, rock crushes lizard, lizard poisons Spock, Spock smashes scissors, scissors decapitates lizard, lizard eats paper, paper disproves Spock, Spock vaporizes rock, and as it always has, rock crushes scissors.

And while in I've not heard of it before, it's not a bad idea[^]
So, have YOU backed up recently?
Have you tested it?

Ever heard ISO 9002? We have someone to do that (full time job, and not only on 1st of April )
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

I reckon that ISO 9002 was deprecated in 2000?

You right it's 9001:2008 now...

Only my NAS and my VM host's virtual hard drive files get backed up. I don't spread files all over the rest of my machines.
The whole lot gets backed up with a simple robocopy.exe mirror batch file at least weekly on a hard drive (bought in a pair) that otherwise stays on my desk disconnected the rest of the time. The second drive is at the office and gets rotated once a month.

My boss and I share a trait of being heavily bad tempered. Almost into a point of getting loud at a verbal argument against one piece of code.
Recently I lost my temper and smashed my personal laptop after a few coding mistakes and frustration buildup on the coding source engine I was doing for fun.
So here's my question...
Is it just me? Or are there really just a lot of developers with bad tempers?
Edit: I think it really boils down to how I'm being handled on my projects and work. if the clients have a decent attitude towards me then I'm acceptable to them, otherwise if not, then I grit my teeth and work with it. I think my temper is ill only once there's been a lot of stress. If all is well and well-maintained then I'm happy as can be.
I really love my job, but sometimes it's hard to accept that these guys are willing to break rules just to get on my nerves.
Opinions on this?
if (Broken)
then fix.this
else !fix.this
end-if

Did you apply your sig to the lappie?
And don't you wish you'd won the lappie sleeve?
I'm pretty placid, it takes a lot to get me annoyed - but then The Red Mist descends, and I tend to be rather... Um... Overzealous...
Doesn't happen often - not that I can remember in the lasts fifteen years at least.
