most of those things are easy to do yourself if you have time :-) I have I think 15 guitars myself... :doh: Hobby ran out of hand :laugh: Good luck with the cover band, I love AC/DC, saw them live a few years back.

Been through a process mere weeks ago. The price looks more the effort for the audit rather than the USB stick. They checked everything and we needed to update our data to prove we are who we say we are. They checked the email address provided and called the phone number we provided. They checked several databases that have data of our company. It was a cumbersome, tedious and frustrating process :-)

V.

it should say something like "xx people in the call" somewhere, where xx is a number of course.

V.

inconsistant naming. :doh:

A long time ago I used to have a MQOTD. Take your pick: [Search](https://www.codeproject.com/search.aspx?q=title%3A"mqotd"+AND+author%3A"v"+AND+NOT+title%3A"re%3A"&doctypeid=6&sort=createddesc) ;P

have you thought of him being a "lazy, dumb troll" ?

V.

See it this way... it improves your changes when they eventually take over the world. :laugh: "Let's not kill humanoid XK334837823, he said 'thank you', let's just enslave him"

You'll probably remember, CP used to have a special forum for that called the soapbox. They had to stop it due to all the negativity :laugh: .

V.

Depends. Mostly between 2 and 5 :-) Dutch, English, French, Spanish (once in a while), Japanese (martial arts). Today I had to find translation for German :-)

one game of poker where you use clothes for money and he will have forgotten all about it ;P We are men after all...

V.

My name, hence I shorten it to the first letter. it's actually "John" :laugh:

With these types of experiments I can't help but think sooner or later we'll seriously harm a hidden civilisation somehow and they'll get back to us and take revenge. :~ I watch too many movies ;P

Well I drive a red one since a few days, partly indeed because it is too often black, white or grey otherwise. But what is equally annoying is that most manufacturers also bring out models that suspiciously lookalike. (as you also pointed out) And of course, there are many, many cars around these days ... taking it to another rant :-\ Cars have way too much electronics requiring your attention. My new car made the dashboard light up on every whatsapp message I got (I had to switch that off), you go slightly out of lane, you drive mildly over the speed limit, you come a bit to close to some pedestrian or other car and your dashboard lights up like a Christmas tree. You want to switch from radio to your phone music or vice versa --> you need to click 5,6 times before you can get there. I'm all for safety, but the tools themselves should do it without moving your attention from actually driving. On the other hand, I understand the car can't distinguish if you're driving or sleeping :laugh:

V.

Same here. I was forced a Mac for my new work. More then a year later, I still hate the bloody thing.

V.

now you jinxed it... or their is fine print you missed, or they will send a correction ;P

V.

be yourself. either it clicks or it doesn't :)

Everyone seemed to think Agile and Scrum was the way to go and it would solve all problems. I have the impression that this is fading a bit, so my guess is soon you'll start seeing more hybrid models. There are good things about agile, but I feel the same thing can be said about other methodologies. You only need to do it right :laugh:

V.

I did see this before. I even had the case where the debug build would work and the release build did not, for what I can only guess would be a similar reason. Don't remember how I solved it though.

head hunter is a polluted word these days. Recruitment is too :laugh: . It used to be that when a head hunter called you, you would have been proud, because your resume/career stood out and someone picked you to fill in a role that your specific skillset would be suited for. Today a headhunter is someone who searches across platforms for keywords and just calls up anyone (s)he can find. They don't even match up skill sets, look at what you're doing now or look at your goals. Often they even miss the mark of where you live and propose work on the other side of the country. It's just hard selling these days.
