In fact, undergeneralizing, which is just as bad.
The same theory/practice is universal.

so is it time for 9fans-flames@cse.pse.edu?

although, vita nuova are sufficiently 'confident'
to use my DES implementation for their 'inferno',
which i gave away for free.  however, i did get a
copy of inferno from them to say 'thanks'.

a nice gesture.

	overgeneralizing.

When reading boyd's scatter bombs the prefix 'over' often comes to mind:

	overactive
	overbearing
	overblown
	overburdened
	overdose
	overexposure
	overextend
	overheated 
	overindulgence
	overkill
	overmuch
	overproduction
	overstatement
	oversupply
	overuse
	overwhelming
	overworked
	overwrought

	over the top

I'd put a smiley thing here if I thought it's help...

If you'd not be such redneck, you can say it to that very person, not to
this public mailing-list.  When you do such here, I think you are not
different from such redneck.

the theory/practice in france is that the idiots hold on to
their 'jobs' by keeping what lttle they know to themselves.

not exactly the 'scientific method' and a real bugger to
work in those conditions.

Actually, I had heard similar story at NASA meeting in Houston.  When I
was enjoying conversation with someone comming from India, he has
once been in Japan, an oldman disturbed us, and said to the Indian "Don't
talk with him, he will steel from you!".  I was much frustrated by his words.
What relation must be there me and someone Japanese who might have
done something wrong to him?  I hate such an attitude of such redneck!

I hope you would not be such stupid redneck. ^_^

well, i did a 'small' one when i was first in japan.  a major
kernel bug, but trivial really.  sVr2:

    can i have a copy of the code?

    err, yeah, but you won't modify it?

    no, no, just to look at it.

of course i'd modified it, to fix a fragmentation in the stupid
swap management code.  one sheet of paper -- it had fragmentation
written all over it.

heads were on guillotines and i'd told to go and not come
back till it was fixed, so i fixed it, violating japanese
meeting protocol.

they were happy, but i was instructed to never to do it again.

i got plan 9 onto 'coma' last night, thanks to russ.

i studied japanese for 5 years and i worked for NEC
for 3 years, so i know tokyo and kobe.  i had a 'keep
bottle' at my favourite 'snack' in kobe 'tetsu no uma'.

the bottle, was, of course, JD.
