So true ! - ggauny@live.fr - 04-13-2016 10:46 AM
Hi,
Have a look on this, it's so true !
Bill Kolb aphorisms
Some of these are SO TRUE !
I speak of a time that less than twenty years can not know .... (Charles Aznavour, really Aznavourian).

La Bohème, track #3: "Je vous parle d'un temps que les moins de vingt ans ne peuvent pas connaître". Number four is "Hier encore", #5, another one I like, is "Emmenez-moi". I've been listening to Charles Aznavour songs in the car, lately.
"Hier encore j'avais vingt ans...". Yes, so true... Merci for reminding me :-)

Most programmers I know - myself included - usually look back on code they've written a few years prior, and wonder, did I actually write this shit???

Thank you France!
Without France I would still be speaking English! (I speak American - not English, it's vaguely related.)
Seriously, France's help in our revolution was essential to our independence. Our two countries have had a long friendship since. Thanks for putting up with us when we occasionally forget how to be gracious and thoughtful of the rest of the world.
Now, about Airbus. Would you tell them to stop kicking Boeing's butt?

The capital pi is used to represent the product of a number of terms, just as a capital sigma represents the sum of a number of terms. I can't draw them here, but sigma of k=1 to n of k means the sum of 1 through n (i.e. [n^2+n]/2). Replacing that with the capital pi means the *product* of 1 through n (i.e. n factorial).
