And when I implied he should have been beaten with a switch,
I meant a Cisco switch :-D
Speaking of technology...
I mentioned two technological advantages of Linux over Windows,
expecting a discussion from the guy: early fork(2) behavior,
and TCP/IP.
Instead of discussing it, he just went on the attack.
I've also seen him ask a question in comp.lang.c that he
could have answered himself by typing on his Linux shell:
$ man size_t
I really, really, wanted to give him sh*t for that, but held
off because he was already receiving his just due of "WTF?".
He may be a competent Excel and Access programmer
-- and maybe even Python -- but given his old-fashioned
ideas, I suspect he may sell buggy whips on the side.
Finally, I once confronted him as being racist. His response?
"Everybody's racist! You're racist too!"
So he's ignorant. Cunning, though -- don't turn your back on him.
