Like tigers can't control their coat color or stripe pattern, but it has an evolutionary advantage so these traits persist.

Hyundai dealership in Norway: Came to check the car in person and to ask couple of questions. Without any pressure dealer asked me if I wanted to take it for a ride. I agreed reluctantly, expecting that he will be joining. Nope, he just handed me the keys and asked to take a picture of my driving license. I loved the experience so much I ended up buying the car on the spot.

Same! Closed it on profile picture. Then saw people mentioning "bow" in the comments, so I had to find out what it is. Worst possible way start a day.

When I was around 8 (26 years ago), I had a couple hundred distinct cans and cigarette packs glued to the wall with plasticine. Good times.

Wallpaper, though, looked awful when I had to take it down before moving to another place.

At first I was like: Nah, it can't be right...

High-school math, napkin, and 5 minutes later: Wow, it's only 42 hours!

I kept a bookmark just to come back to this thread later. Would you mind sharing your experience so far?

Thanks, only after your comment I realized there is more to Zeus and I was not looking at it correctly (on big screen).

For those missing the "magic" - try moving the cursor clockwise to each corner of the screen.

I know it's a joke, but I wonder if bacon can stay edible for that long. After some googling it looks like meat, depending on type, is "good" for up to a year. Some should be eaten within few months.

Plenty of articles. Search for "nginx office raid".

I'm used to writing the SELECT query and adding the commented-out DELETE just below the SELECT line.

  SELECT *
  -- DELETE
  FROM Sales
  WHERE Customer = 1
Next, selecting the whole query and executing it. If results are satisfactory - selecting only the DELETE part.

I assume that instead of config file (or hardcoded values), they will use Redis store for mapping of the domains/target nodes. E.g. traffic from www.hacker.com is forwarded to 192.168.1.1, and traffic from www.news.com is forwarded to 192.168.1.2.
