  Re: What happened?
 
(...) Tell them what you're worth (and why) and what range you're willing to accept, but not what you currently make. What you currently make is largely irrelevant anyway during the headhunting phase, especially if you are moving from MS to NJ, (...)

  Re: Fun with JAVA
 
(...) It makes the browser window go bezerk and start shaking all over the screen. I almost threw up. (25 years ago, 22-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: What happened?
 
(...) Either tell them the truth or don't tell them anything. I'm in the same boat, and if internal mobility doesn't present itself soon, I'll be revamping the resume and starting the same process. (25 years ago, 22-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: What happened?
 
(...) Hmm. Tell them the truth? Or at least tell them what you'd like to be making. Steve (25 years ago, 21-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Fun with JAVA
 
(...) perhaps nice, but it also presents an enormous security issue. Can you give a description of what it does before I turn my browser into a security hole? Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 21-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: What happened?
 
(...) I'm in the process of finding a new employer now, and I'm using recruiters (headhunters) for the first time. What am I supposed to answer when they ask what I make? I'd rather not tell them, but I also don't want them to fail to pass on my (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: X-Face: usage?
 
On Fri, 18 Jun 1999 22:54:37 GMT, Jasper Janssen uttered the following profundities... (...) Its the whatever part.... part that seems most likely. Thanks, I don't know if I would *want* my software to support it! (25 years ago, 20-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

On Sat, 19 Jun 1999 12:34:44 GMT, Larry Pieniazek uttered the following profundities... (...) I wasn't expecting an answer! However, good luck! It must be quite exciting to be part of a small, up-and-coming firm. I imagine, being a part of (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Perl rules!
 
Todd Lehman wrote in message ... (...) functions, (...) regular (...) level" (...) I've always had a sport in my heart for SNOBOL which had an eval function to evaluate an expression, and a compile function if you needed real code. I used the (...)

  Re: Perl rules!
 
(...) I didn't mean to say that it was necessary for a language to be "high level" but it certainly is a common property of high-level langauges (for example Lisp/Scheme, Logo, PostScript*, and Perl). (...) It certainly has a variety of mis-uses, (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Perl rules!
 
Good post! (...) I agree with most all you say, but I am surprised that you consider this: in-memory compilation of arbitrary code constructed on-the-fly, necessary for a language to be "high level". I rather consider it a potential pitfall for the (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: What happened?
 
(...) Enough to make me quite happy. For whatever reason, in the US, it's rude to ask specific details, and it would not be prudent for me to answer publicly in more detail. Why salaries and comp are closely guarded may be an interesting .debate (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Fun with JAVA
 
Make sure JAVA-script is turned on and look at (URL) (25 years ago, 19-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Perl rules!
 
(...) Amen to that. Perl is the first general-purpose programming language I've ever used* which hasn't yet made me mad at it because it couldn't do something in a clean and straightforward way. It's amazing: I just never get mad at Perl. Instead, (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: What happened?
 
Once upon a time, (on Thu, 17 Jun 1999 17:52:22 GMT, to be precise!), Larry Pieniazek uttered the following profundities.... (...) Ah ha. Hmmmm. How much %age of the company were you offered? (25 years ago, 19-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Geometry problem
 
Kevin B wrote in message ... (...) Cool problem. I am actually visually able to see the fact that the "hypotenuse" of the combined area is not straight. I see the top hypotenuse as concave, and the lower as convex. It sometimes amazes me at the (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Getting a bad impression?
 
(...) [Snippage] (...) [more snippage[ (...) The from header looks worse. Are you sure that was actually there like that? I'd tell my sendmail to reject messages with a From: that badly formatted... Jasper (25 years ago, 18-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Geometry problem
 
(...) A very similar one is in my mothers' bundle of Lewis Carroll works, originally published before WWII... Jasper (25 years ago, 18-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: X-Face: usage?
 
(...) a 64*64*4bit grayscale image, IIRC. Something along that lines, anyway. If your software supports it, it's a small image of the users' face (or whatever part of his anatomy he would care to show) Jasper (25 years ago, 18-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Serial Connection Distance
 
(...) Depends. RS232, standard PC serial cables, should get 25 metres, IIRC. RS432, which is a balanced serial system, has reaches in the hundreds of metres range. Jasper (25 years ago, 18-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
