Only in the Age of Google
December 12th, 2008 by Matt FleagleOne of our engineers was investigating compiler error C2766 (for a friend offsite, of course. We never get compiler errors ourselves, you understand). He did what anyone would do, he googled it. His monitor was suddenly awash in returns linking to pages about the assassination of JFK. Turns out the error number is the same as the serial number of the Italian rifle used in that doleful outing.
After we all had a good macabre snort about this, one of our guys commented that there are alarming juxtapositions that would only come to light in the Google Age.
Thought I: Touché! That’s worth a post.
