The management and incentive thinking I hear from top VCs today sounds like it came straight from an IBM middle manager running a mainframe payroll system in 1987.

Ok, this was funny: I asked Pi to play Warcraft sounds instead of its default chimes, figured it would use one of the million extensions out there. Left the terminal open, forgot about it. Later I’m in another terminal and get spooked by a sudden “Yes, me lord,” in the weirdest voice.

Turns out it couldn’t download the original Warcraft III files, so it used the Mac say command to recreate them. :lolsob:
