The customer is not always right.
Some of these are really funny! Some might not be work-safe. Thanks
to
talvinamarich for the link.
A coworker shared this collection of funny or bizarre comments in source code.
Can you serve humanity on your kosher china? That's "serve" in the sense of "to serve man".
Via another coworker comes this story about a cyber-attack on a US city. Why haven't I heard about this through mainstream channels? By the way, I had not previously known that ham-radio operators are plugged into emergency-response systems. Kudos.
Pittsburghers: You probably already know that Giant Eagle is test-marketing "food perks", the inverse of "fuel perks". (That is, buy gas from their affiliate to get grocery discounts.) I learned over the weekend that you can get a one-time 5% discount on a single grocery trip by sitting through this video and then entering your advantage-card ID. (And some email address; I've seen no evidence of validation.) You don't actually need to watch the video; you just need to get to the end of it.
