Python Attempts to Eat Other Python, Fails

Parry Creek Farm Tourist Resort and Caravan Park in Wyndham, Western Australia is a great place to see many of the amazing creatures that live in the World's Most Terrifying Continent. This resident python is a fine example. The caretakers found the 11.5 to 13-foot long python with a bloated body, as you can see in the photo below.

They thought that python had grabbed a chicken. But they then observed the snake regurgitating a smaller whole python that was just to heavy a meal. You can see more frightening photos of the snake here.

Don't worry about the snake--at least the bigger one. The humans relocated him because "the safety of the python is a priority."

Two points to make:

1) Comparing today's Office to the old DOS Word isn't exactly fair. You can however to the custom install of office and tell it not to install Excel, Outlook, Powerpoint, etc. And then you can tell it not to install many features within Word itself. Even then, even ignoring the many features that'll still be installed that weren't in the original Word, what you'll get will be far easier to learn and use than the original Word.

2) In the days of 10MB hard drives, my drive was filled with about 95% program code and about 5% data. Now in the days of 1TB hard drives with music and video and digital photography, my drive is filled with about 5% program code and about 95% data.

Modern OS's are such bloated Fisher Price Candy Coated GUI's with Swiss-Army-Do-Everything features that it's nearly impossible to code lean applications.

Even Steve Gibson doesn't hand compile app's for Win7.

Add in complicated IDE's that do way more then just "help you program" and my Toolkit is bigger then your Toolkit subroutines and massively fat applications is what you get.

Nobody even tries to program lean anymore. If it's too slow - instead of tightening up the code - they just throw bigger hardware at it.

Just check the minimum spec's on any modern game for proof.

Right, as if Americans are so dumb that they pronounce a name that looks very much like ''Nicholas'' as ''nick-uhl''.

Another one of those ''ain't Americans stupid'' myths spread by yet another european.

Sigh.

Oh, the memories... Turbo Pascal on a CP/M machine was my first encounter with professional programming. Haven't heard of him since university. We - as Germans - never had any difficulties pronouncing his name. Our problem was Donald Knuth and his German looking surname...
