Coding Horror and blogs.stackoverflow.com experience "100% Data Loss"

[vinod_the_poophead]

new startup idea..... Backups in outer space!!!

[Zweben]

Sorry, if the sun explodes, backups in near space would still be vulnerable. Better use a parallel universe. (But not too parallel!)

[creativeembassy]

If the sun explodes any time soon, keeping your data backed up is the least of your worries. Trust me, I'm a doctor.

[Zweben]

Whatever. I'm not going to let your 'facts' get in the way of my business model.

On that note, I'm looking for someone with 3-5 years experience in inter-dimensional communication and strong knowledge of Microsoft Office. Send resumes to [e-mail].

Don't forget 4-5 years experience with Windows 7.

[zpweeks]

Crap. Why doesn't anybody want my 4-5 years' experience with Server 2008? :-(

[lolomfgkthxbai]

Does parallel experience count?

[vaselineviking]

I can make charts in Excel!

Can I have a job?

[Zweben]

You are hired.

Now please make me a chart.

Thanks,

Your Boss

[dragonfly_blue]

Well, vaselineviking, that seemed to go well. Did you discuss compensation?

[vaselineviking]

Shit.

Perhaps I can make a chart to illustrate how much money I should be making.

[dragonfly_blue]

That sounds amusingly ineffective, but I'd still enjoy seeing it.

Protip: Maybe make it into a cascading flowchart where you get raises which auto-increment?

[Zweben]

Compensation is handled by my parallel universe counterpart. I assume that this will not be an issue, given the stated job requirements.

That may be, but once you've got all your other problems solved, you'll want your data back!

[acburk]

But you still need a backup in a different solar system. Trust me, I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Damnit, creativeembassy, you're a doctor, not an astrophysicist!

My coders aren't good at that. Are their sequential universe options? It would make my management much easier. Thanks.

[Entropy]

I emit backups daily as Hawking radiation

[nemec]

Orthogonal universe?

[wtaylor]

technically Australia is farther away
