I remember something similar from the 80's - $180 on amazon today:
The woman in The Terminator was impressed because she had a fetish for men with doll crotches. I thought James Cameron covered this on the Director's Commentary Track on the Laserdisc.
It sounds more like he's just saying "Don't interrupt yourself with meta-writing tasks like using reference material for something specfic while writing. Just write now and do the reference checking later after you've written."
It's almost as if this is an Onion story.
It doesn't look like it was touched after the boulder hit it... Where's the alleged "design" around this boulder?
It is a joke because there is no missing 24MB. The discrepencies have to do with the difference between a Decimal/Metric based Gigabyte (GB) and a Binary based Gibabyte (GiB). Unfortunately some Software folks (Microsoft in particular) stubbornly insist on incorrectly using Metric nomenclature to express binary…

They really need to stop calling these sorts of things flying cars. Driving planes would be far more accurate.
Probably Google Now. I travel quite a bit and Now is so very useful for that.
So... this means job hopping does not equal to getting laid off right? Because that's very common in the film/gaming industry for animators. Also, what about a post on your site a year or two ago claiming that changing companies once every two years is the only way to keep a competitive salary in your position/field?
....said the guy who has clearly never had a stout from the horn of a freshly killed water buffalo. You wanna have an aromatic experience? Fell a bubalus bubulis bear-handed while wearing nothing but a loin cloth, lop off the rack and then tell me about your girly beer glasses.
