Andy Grove on offshoring

On holiday? Without me?

Hm... Maybe my "delicate sense of humor" is hanging out with your "delicate sense of tact" and playing shuffleboard on some cruiseliner somewhere.

Thanks for visiting neopoleon.com!

Bliz -

I can actually only speak very little Russian. There was a Russian mainframe coder I knew from my last contract, and I got her to teach me how to say "I'm a pretty little princess." I figured I'd need a phrase to shout should I ever have to parachute into Siberia and kick the door down of a small cabin in the middle of nowhere where the double agent I was sent to assassinate would be sitting.

The other stuff I just copied off of one of those online Russian bride stores :) It's probably really bad Russian. Most of what was on the site had to do with dating.

Did my best, though :) (Although Jacque Sprat doesn't seem to have enjoyed it much)

Notice what an "early adopter" m. fowler is.
