A beginning programmer will think that's an infinite loop, but anyone familiar with tequila will know better.
It'll run until the stack overflows.
But gotos don't add a layer to the... oh. Oh, I see.

#152So according to logic, assembler is pure alcohol?
Minimal frills I would think
And then there's machine code - industrial alcohol
Re: Cocktails for programmers
#153Awesome idea. My friends at ActiveState had a release party and went to the bar to celebrate over drinks. One of the guys ordered a round of shots for the group "12 shots please, half Tequila and half Jager" The waitress took him literally and brought 12 shots, all with half Tequila and half Jager.
The release included a GUI version of an existing command line tool because a certain customer wrote in saying "F&*k this DOS prompt BS, I want a GUI".
We now call this awful shot "The DOS Prompt"

I think you are doing the same faulty comparison you made with board games in another comment. The purpose of all those activities (party, board games, bowling) is to have fun . I'm saying that the very definition of a conference is that it has a different goal. Conferences can (and should , by all means possible) be as fun as possible, but with the goal of the conference taking slight precedence . Since having a par…
" I'm saying that the very definition of a conference is that it has a different goal. ... the goal of the conference taking slight precedence." So long as you realize that this sentence is just a statement your own personal opinion, not some sort of universal truth about conferences, then I don't think we have any issue. The goal, or purpose, of a conference is something for organizers and participants to decide for…
Well, I guess it comes down to what the definition of “conference” is, I suppose.

Yes. That's why he opened his initial response with "perhaps your idea of what a conference is [...]"

It's simpler to get in bars (though they tend to run out of diet coke fast), and... well, I never bothered to check the carbohydrate contents of rum; just decided to go with the simplest option ;).
Ethanol is the primary source of calories in both rum and vodka. They are, for dieting purposes, equivalent. Ethanol is actually second only to fat in caloric density, though thankfully you don't really consume massive amounts of it without knowing it. ;)
ethanol has a high caloric content but almost none of those calories can be absorbed by the body. It is a fundamental flaw in the way food calories are measured. To measure the calories of food you put the food in a sealed container under a vial of water and burn it, the food has 1 calorie for ever degree centigrade it made a liter of water rise. ethanol obviously burns extremely well so by this test it has high caloric content but that does not mean your body can convert ethanol to fat, sugar, ATP or anything else useful to the body. The vast majority of it is processed by the liver and expelled by the kidneys

Calories is not the metric important for me here (every alcoholic beverage has plenty of it, so standard caution applies), it's carbohydrate count - too much and you're out of ketosis for good.

#159I don't see a campari one, :D but here goes my daily cocktail: 1. half glass of Campari bitter. 2. Ice 3. orange 4. a shot of water-soda (never use tonic or white wine, if you like it a bit more alcoholic then use some cava or champagne [sprinkledwine])
Campari and soda is a fantastic drink. Refreshing and not super high in alcohol, yet bitter instead of cloying and sweet. For future reference, since it looks like you are not a native English speaker, the phrase for non-Champagne champagne is "sparkling wine."
Thanks for the tip! the correct word in italian is "prosecco"

#160Malibu, Crème de Menthe, Jager, Triple Sec, Vodka & Coke, Kahlua. These seem like cocktails for programmers... earlier in their careers, shall we say.
My wife is a bourbon/whiskey snob. She mocks me when I make a jack and coke.
when doing this, does she also refer to you as "my wife"?
