'The Message'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The thing that's so terrifying to me about this is that it's basically based on the procedure sounding yucky. Well, the other procedure available sounds at least as yucky, if you describe it in anti-abortion terms. This is a very slippery slope.
ITA. Terrifying is exactly the right word.
Grump. I have to come up with a costume for this weekend - you're supposed to come as your favorite bad ass. Suggestions? (That I have a hope in hell of pulling off?)
ooh! Ann Richards!
Maybe you could go as Darla?
Completely random question: Who here has the powers of 2 memorized? How high do you have them memorized?
The highest I do is 2^13 = 8192.
Key powers of 2 to know are 2^8 = 256 (because a byte has 8 bits, for a total of 256 possible numbers) and 2^10 = 1024, as a kilobyte is 1024 bytes, a megabyte is 1024 kilobytes, etc. (unless we're talking about marketing and HD size).

Oh, tommy. We are so, so different.
I don't have them memorized exactly, but I roughly know 2^15, 2^16, 2^31, and 2^32 because of short, unsigned short, int, unsigned int.

You're blonde - go as ita! (Even though she's not blonde anymore.)
Even though she's not blonde anymore.
My worldview has completely changed.
Oh, tommy. We are so, so different.
Hee.
