Bowing to calls for restraint in tough economic times, Goldman said that its most senior executives would forgo cash bonuses this year. Instead, the 30 executives will be paid in the form of long-term stock
— In the spirit of restraint, I would like to take a 50% pay cut and have the 50%, I didn’t get, paid to me in gold bars. I want to rough it like all the other common folk this year. via (nytimes).

“Calm down. Breathe. This isn’t the end of a beautiful love life that ended suddenly, this is the beginning of the rest of your goddam life, and it’s only going to get better from here. You’re free. Realize that. This girl wanted to marry you, and she’s willing to fuck some dipshit behind your back?

You dodged a massive fucking bullet, man. The really huge Super Mario kind with the eyes on the side, where you had to run and duck into the little divit to avoid shrinking. You did that. You got into that divit, and you’re still super sized, and you can break blocks with your face. Now get out there and step on some fucking turtles”

Microsoft on the Sidekick Debacle

Microsoft corporate vice president Roz Ho said the data loss problem has been traced to a “system failure that created data loss in the core database and the back-up.”

ORLY?! The system failure caused data loss in your primary database, then drove to your offsite backup location and then peed on all the other backups? Just admit it: you either didn’t have backups or your backups were stored in the same place as your original data. In which case, YOU DIDN’T HAVE BACKUPS!
