After midday again though... Making hadron the april fool. Even more so if
he actually read that online and believed it "weeeeee, this should set the
cat amongst the pigeons, torvalds resigning?! yipeeee"

But then, being a fool is hadron's natural state anyway.

Poor Spike1.

There was no online.

And further more the link did not say April Fool.

Are you ever right?

Hadron <> did eloquently scribble:

So you made it up... Big deal...
You're still an april fool,
1: you posted it on april the first and no-one fell for it,
2: you posted it after midday, and
3: it's just your natural state, anyway.

> And further more the link did not say April Fool.

Who said anything about the link saying april fool? Try reading that thread
again, idiot.

> Are you ever right?

Are you?
You're certainly showing a severe incapability of reading and comprehending
a simple conversation.

I didn't read the thread to start with. I just saw your post.

Yes. Most of the time actually.

Not at all Mr Degree. LOL. You've been made to such look a fool recently
with your statements about compilers not being on CS Degrees (amongst
other things) that I'm surprised you have the temerity to come back for
more.

I'm surprised you're not throwing your qualified opinion into the
threads about consistent UIs being a waste of time and effort according
to Rick and Gregory.

Quel surprise.
As a result you took everything that I said out of context (as usual) in a
feeble attempt to attack me (as usual)...

Not very good at this, are you?

Yeah, riiiiiiiiiight.

No, that wasn't what I said and you know it.
Compiler course? The degree is a multitude of subjects mateyboy...
And a whole course on compilers is most certainly NOT compulsary in most
these days. Oh, I never said anything about compilers being COVERED, in
detail, if fact if you bother to dredge through your feeble selective
memory, you'll note I said we did DO compilers, as PART of a DIFFERENT
course.

But that's you through and through. You select whichever parts of a
conversation suit you in order to launch an attack (with the usual result
that you look a complete arse)

Excuse me? I posted the original. You started trying to make it into an
April 1st. More fool you. As usual you tried to be clever - and failed.

You seem very good at it - if it is begin wrong all the time.

Yup. Yet nearly every major discussion you have joined in on has left
you looking stupid. From compilers to emulators. You lose.

No one said anything about compulsory. I would not expect ALL courses t
cover them. But you laughed at the VERY NOTION that a CS degree would
include compiler techniques. In other words you are clueless.

Dont make me quote you. I'm sure someone else might though.

Wrong again.
That's what happens when you can't be bothered to read the thread.
Have you bothered to read the thread? Didn't think so.

As you're soooo incapable, let's recap shall we, in a way you MAY be able to
understand...

He're the summarised conversation, starting with the first mention of april
the first...

I then replied with the thing you got so het up about...

! After midday again though... Making hadron the april fool. Even more so if
! he actually read that online and believed it "weeeeee, this should set the

Where have I been wrong in this thread?
You couldn't even spot a reference to 1st of april I replied to, and you
accuse ME of being wrong for replying to it?

Hah!

Hardron... Find a new target, please... You're getting too pathetic to
bother arguing with at the moment.

Emulators? Pray, do tell. What has been said by me on the subect of emulators that you so
sooooo disagree with? (hint: disagreement does not always indicate the
opposing argument is wrong...sorry to burst your bubble on that one)

We all know what you think I said about compilers.
(utterly irrelevant and wrong of course, but that's you through and
through)

Nope, it wasn't. I clarified and you ignored it.

No, I laughed at your IMPLICATION that I'd "failed my compiler course" or
some such... can't even be BOTHERED to look up that pile of shite again now.

Quote me, oh PLEASE quote me.
