Meanwhile, on “Global Nerdy”…

In case you’d forgotten, I write another blog: Global Nerdy, where I cover articles of interest to programmers, techies, nerds and all you folks who like keeping up with all things geeky. Listed beow are some of the most recent postings:

“Halo 3” Cheat Codes, as Explained by a Neglected Girlfriend:X, A, B, DOWN, RIGHT, Y: God mode. Total invincibility to all attacks. You can just stand there and the aliens can’t kill you. Heck, you could even put the controller down and they still can’t do anything. You could even walk away from the Xbox and—crazy idea—talk to someone who’s been sitting here for the past hour wondering if that was in fact an actual conversation she had earlier about going to the movies this afternoon and not just an incredibly realistic dream.”

Bug vs. Feature: Just in case the difference wasn’t clear to you.

It’s Complicated: An XKCD comic on everyone’s favourite Facebook relaionship status.

Developer Hardware Nerdvana at TSOT: They give us some pretty nice gear at work.

In PHP, There’s Equality and Then There’s EQUALITY: Not all “equals” operators are created equal.

Area Man Gives Glowing Review for His Windows Vista to XP Upgrade Experience: I’m thinking about upgrading from Vista to XP myself.

Pythagorean Pick-Up: If you were (or are) a high school nerd, you’ll wish school social life worked like this.

1000 Copies of “Rock Band” Taken in Truck Heist: A sure sign we’re living in the 21st century: a couple of guys hijacked a truckload of videogames!

“BioShock” Meets a Shopping Cart: Quite possibly the world’s first Objectivist shopping cart.
