Whoa! The story people are missing here is that there is finally some supporting evidence to his claim about people cheering on 9/11. He just forgot to mention that it was him.

This was also the project with my most memorable IT story.

I once worked on an IT project where the team consisted of 1 project manager, 2 analysts, 1 data architect, 1 development lead, and 1 developer (me). All the other members were manager-level, did not code, and the bulk of their responsibilities involved “interfacing” with the client and then delegating the development…

One can see the referee signaling the play dead, albeit it is in the lower corner of the image and only for a moment.

I was never able to get comfortable working on multiple monitors, so I’m waiting for the prices of 4K monitors to come down more before upgrading. In the meantime, I find that I can squeeze a little more onto my FHD monitor by turning on nVidia’s dynamic super resolution and raising my desktop resolution to an…

Isn’t arguments like this the reason why we have stats like WAR that aim to isolate individual contribution to the team’s success? Ichiro has a career WAR above 56, which is HOF-worthy. The knock on him being a singles hitter has some validity, since singles do comprise an unusually high percentage of his hits, but…

To me, the main difference in the two performances is that North’s delivery has more variations in tone, pace, and inflection, which is to expected from an experienced voice actor. Dinklage’s delivery is less varied, which could come across as disinterested and, ironically, mechanical. As for whose approach is better…

It’s silly, over-the-top, mindless entertainment; maybe that speaks of the audience EA is targeting.
