Twoism

An amusing anecdote from earlier today that I thought I'd drop by to share with you, the viewers.

We have a pair of development machines in the office that serve tandem functions. Earlier today, we decided to rebuild one from scratch, which meant we got to rename it. The other box was named "John McClane", of Die Hard fame. It was only natural that we renamed the first box "Hans Gruber". Right? Of course.

Within ten minutes of these two machines being next to each other, the first box died. That's right: John McClane killed Hans Gruber.

No, we did not drop it out of a window in slow-motion.
