Comment On The Unknown

What's the sound of one hand clapping? If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? Can Word edit the unknown?

No, it can't. Read the fucking exception message, dumbass.

Is the weather in Cambridge MA always this capacitive?

MIT is in Cambridge, so I'd imagine that's very likely.

Can the immovable coding flaw stop the unstoppable email spam?

The real WTF is that Irish Girl has disappeared.

But aren't microfarads really, really small?

How many Gigahertz?
...or is it Microhertz?

Yes, a capacity of one microfarad is a millionth of a farad. What this means in terms of temperature is another matter, though...

TRWTF is that Roy doesn't know that you can press <Alt>+<Print Screen> to just copy the active window.

The unsubscription message should probably read:

Even better is the "Share The Unknown" button below the article. It seems our beloved website has become highly metaphysical these days.

Leaving PHP errors on on a production web server...well done.

Yes, but it is common for electronics usage. If you had a 1 F capacitor, it would hold a monster charge, and be fun to tase people with.

Hey the Irish chick's gone :-(

Irish she was still here.

If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

If a man speaks, and there is no woman there to hear, is he still wrong?

I'm from Argentina, and I still see her.

Actually, I'm curious how does negative capacity feel like.

Well, a farad is LOTS. 17 microfarads at 230V can give a nasty shock already.

Irish she was.

Why is she gone? Was she removed because she kept encouraging off-topic comments? We demand her back!

oh noes!!!

Not really, it's just that farads are really, really big.

I remember seeing a cartoon a long time ago where the caption was "I have the 6-farad capacitor you ordered". The picture showed a truck driver at the front door of the house and the tractor-trailer parked on the street towing a capacitor that was bigger than the house.

I like the fact that even in XP SP2 many, many Windows dialog boxes don't let you resize, so it's impossible to determine where a mapped drive letter point...

Golly, electronics humour sure is funny!

Welcome to the brave new world... 3kF capacitors are now about 1L:

16 microfarads seems a bit low. I think in a thunderstorm the earth-cloud gap has about 2 farads.

(sorry for the non-humorous nerd comment)

* Please note: This new cell offers a technological breakthrough of 2.7 volts operating temperature combined with Maxwell's standard high reliability. To enable this higher voltage, the BCAP3000 cell is designed in such a way that it requires that the user observe polarity.

2.7 volts operating temperature?

What Irish girl?!? What are you talking about?!? Stupid NoScript!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!11one11eleven!1!!eleventy-first!!

PS: At least we get to "Comment on The Unknown" now!

Word cannot edit the unknown Unknown, but the known Unknown is probably OK.

"... If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? ..."

The real question is, if an Indian asked a programming question in the forest, would it still be urgent?

And, of course, would also be useful for car audio bragging rights.

Don't forget your sunscreen, it's going to be 16 microfarads today.

But it will only feel like -5 microfarads so won't be unbearable.

I'm glad to know where you're from, han. But where are you now?

Very zen like. me likey.

The Irish girl obviously didn't read the weather forecast. If she did, she'd have known that it was 16 microfarads today, significantly increasing her chance of being struck by lightning.

The Irish Girl can still be found here.

TRWTF is that InstallShield's "Intelligent" updater will continue to pop up every now and then to remind you that you've instructed it not to update anything... :|

Wow, I didn't realize her rack was so big. Nice.

4 or 5u?

Weather.com has been pushing to standardize on reporting temperature in micro-farads for some time now, but they've encountered some resistance.

You, sir, win.

I meant, I'm writing from Argentina and the irish girl is still on the same place, just in case it has to do with regional targetting ads or something.

I was heading to the bathroom for my daily irish ritual.
