As a vegan I've often banged on about how I prefer meat eaters to milk drinkers.

Murder over torture

turn the router off, or get one of those timer switches for $5 or put this in /etc/crontab

It checks every minute so you still have a window :)

I integrated and adminsiter a postfix / sa / clamd / courier system for about 10,000 domains (6 identical blades with local storage for the queues and Global File System GFS once they've been accepted).

SA gets about 95% accuracy on our system even at 5.0

I can also recommend enabling SPF and DKIM see http://www.openspf.org/ Wave bye bye to emails pretending to be sent from yourself to yourself or those annoying "your settings have changed, open this zip file" mails.

When I worked for a "we'll all work from home" company we used to use IRC as our office. Saying hello to everyone every morning got a bit repetitive so I scripted some good mornings and when people arrived it got triggered to say hello for me.

Eventually though, our sales guy twigged that he was being fooled (as he saw it) and got annoyed about it. The tech side thought it was a cool script but to appease the guy I turned it off.

The irony is that he fucked the company by finding cheaper subcontractors to make more money for himself, a phenomena I've encountered quite a few times now.

Same here with an HP4000+ from eBay. Full duplex, network, two full ream bins, $150. I expected it to die pretty quick but two years later (and 1000s of pages) the spare toner is still on the shelf.

The only problem I had was the usual - leave it for 6 weeks without printing and it gums up a bit.

I've also had some feed problems where it dumps ink into the printer.

The guys I share an office with got one and didn't read the instructions properly and we stood their (me laughing) as the ink unloaded into the thing.

But when it's all working you get 6+ months of reliable printing.

And for the price of an inkjet, a spare one is cheap, though I'm lucky - my local retailer is 5 mins away by foot and when my dried up I just went and got another one - the dried up one is under my desk waiting for me to clean it!

low, as in brow.

take this shit somewhere else

I should also say that I have experience working with Manchester cpus (AVR microcontrollers) where the code is fixed when you flash it and you cannot jmp into RAM. Of course one then writes an interpreter instead :)

Well, you know what I mean re: the last bit, it's not just Lisp that can modify code at runtime.

As for C, it's not just the fault of pointers. You just can't shellcode something that doesn't execute data.

Like I say, we'd just have a different class of problems, so it's not a panacea.

I think it's a bit disingenuous to say that such dislike is nailed to Lisp. Mixing data and code in the memory of a running program is what has lead us to every exploit involving a buffer overflow or a stack smash.

I expoect a different class of problems in their place but self modifying code is rightfully highlighted as unprovably correct.

Lisp is not the only language that can build a string and throw it at an eval function.
