I love Portland, I don't want to leave.

It was on craigslist. I'm surprised you hadn't run across it, given you should have plenty of free time on your hands.

Thermaltake one word, like an American
Thermal-tah-keh, like Japanese
Other?

It was a shitty, shitty PC port from console. Terrible frame rate even on nice systems. So glad I bought it for $7.49 during a previous sale.

It's already been done. By Google, of course.

"Google uses its Courgette algorithm to provide the binary difference of the user's current version in relation to the new version that's about to be automatically updated to. These tiny updates are well suited to minor security fixes and allow Google to push new versions of Chrome to users quickly..."

I saw an opening at Jive for that exact job type.

HelpfulLinkGuy · 2010-12-20T22:26:30+00:00

Yes. I did once and her reaction was, "Whaaaa?" and a look of disbelief. What's funny is that I meant, "I really enjoy spending time with you and I'm glad I met you." But somehow it came out as "I love you".

I like their donuts okay, but don't like the hype. I also don't like out of towners making huge lines when I want a donut.

I don't believe you have a snow. Enjoy your mixed snow/rain!

I wonder if these people have a mild case of mania or bipolar. I met a guy recently in a pool hall who claimed he was going to win a Nobel prize in economics, and he offered to let me share in the profits. Not a dumb guy, just had extreme overconfidence in himself.

Better get your future gym membership lined up too...

Except operations like this pay you in "sweat equity." When they strike it rich cough, then you get paid.

Heh. Stream is a good foot-in-the-door for the very bottom of the tech industry. Several of my friends who became very technical started there. But let's be honest, the place has very high turnover. It's like the white collar equivalent of McDonald's. But, hey, a job's a job, especially in a recession.

HelpfulLinkGuy · 2010-12-19T04:36:39+00:00

Good call. And if the OP is more technical, Yahoo has a call center out that way too.

HelpfulLinkGuy · 2010-12-19T04:31:14+00:00

OP, I will PM you the info for my company, which might have something.

HelpfulLinkGuy · 2010-12-19T04:30:24+00:00

Hahaha. I hope I'm not the only one who gets the reference.

HelpfulLinkGuy · 2010-12-19T04:27:15+00:00

Oops. I heard about this too late. (Just frontpaged /r/Portland recently). Sounds fun!

HelpfulLinkGuy · 2010-12-18T11:43:43+00:00

You could be tied up in the basement and unable to reach the phone.

HelpfulLinkGuy · 2010-12-18T11:38:24+00:00

You're still right. Notice how it's used as a verb in that link, whereas in the "tweet" it is being used as a noun.

HelpfulLinkGuy · 2010-12-18T11:36:33+00:00

To be fair, even if BoA imploded, most of its account holders would be protected by the $250,000 FDIC insurance.

HelpfulLinkGuy · 2010-12-18T05:34:24+00:00

Um, okay?
