When people we know are getting married ask us for our address, I explicitly reply that we are not to be addressed in that manner (I find it somewhat insulting).
I can tell if the couple is doing addressing themselves or if they're having an older relative do it by if our instructions have been followed.
My boss and I once justified a visit to one of the Autodesk conferences (which was, in my opinion, quite lavish and expensive) by my getting time with some of their API developers. It was maybe 15 minutes, but it was worth every second.
The way I heard it, the government used a specific language for "have sexual relations with" (hereinafter HSRW):
A HSRW B if the mouth, hands, or genitals of A touch the genitals of B.
Any hackernews regular would notice that HSRW is not associative - as in it is entirely possible for A HSRW B to be true, but B HSRW A to be false; in fact this was the case for if A's mouth touches B's genitals; A HSRW B but !(B HSRW A).
You can whine and plead and ask the question 4,000 times, but at the end of the day, if one don't understand logic, you might be a Republican Senator in the 1990's.
Clinton's claim was effectively that he believed the definition was not associative for that specific statement. There was also the later statement which he described Monica's statement about having not had a sexual relationship as true.
The trial court disagreed that these statements truthfully responded to the deposition, and fined him for his misleading answer.
I still use my XO-1 for work I can do with a console (via SSH with vi, tmux, etc).
Alas, a web browser is kinda required for modern dev work, and an 18 year old machine with 128 MB of ram doesn't cut it. rdesktop, x forwarding, vnc, etc are all too slow.
I considered removing the screen and trying to transplant it to a modern machine, but it looks like many months work to rebuild the electrical interfaces and custom pixel layouts etc.
I enjoy reading articles (even if this one felt like it had been translated slightly clumsily) where scientific rigor has been applied to something mundane.
