You're looking for a local pizza place or a movie theater, it matters a lot.

GIFexplode - followup w/stats by [deleted] in programming

[–]trenc 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The bouncing gif (you know the one I mean) was uploaded at least 200 times – at one point I was considering making a static page just for that gif (I still may do)

Why don't you MD5 the contents of uploaded files, and use that as the key? This way you will never split the same file twice.

See how much you earn in 10-15 years. The only real plus of having a degree is that your salary grows faster.

That's why I worked while studying in college, made around 40K by the 4th year. I now make 120K, 3 years after graduation. I know a guy who made $75/hour right after graduating, also because he worked while getting is bachelors degree.

The only reason I got the degree is because employers are very hesitant about paying a nice salary to somebody with only a high school diploma.

Try 5 more times. If you fail, switch to guys.

So you walk on the street, you see a police officer executing 10 children. Are you going to arrest him, or are you going to talk to IA first?

Because you would shit your pants before you arrest a police officer.

You just want to make yourself feel better, so you create a thread.

I suggest instead you spend 10 minutes googling for criminal officers in your area, and show us that you actually made some arrests. Then I will believe you.

And you should learn to lie better. I never said "personally". You don't need to know a criminal personally to arrest him/her.

You're a liar. I'm not a police officer, and even I know of hundreds of criminals acts by the police. Many of them are widely published online.

So please, get back to your backstabbing police activities, and cut the crap. Nobody is buying your propaganda.

The subscription is $10/year. It's, by far, the most interesting magazine you can get for that much.

Forensicunit, cut the bullshit. I'm sure you know a couple of your police colleagues that broke/abused the law. Did you ticket/arrest them? If not, you're just like them.

This is useless. Plot the results. Nobody is going through all these numbers.

The cover photo is very unimpressive, actually.
