If there’s one thing that makes me think I’ve somehow slipped into the Bizarro universe, it’s the phrase “Control Flow”.

For the majority of the 30+ years I’ve studied and practiced programming, conditional operations, loops, and even the dreaded GOTO were referred to as “flow control”.

But in the last five years or so, it seems everytime I turn around, somebody’s using that aneurysm inducing inversion.

Yes, yes, I know that semantically  both terms are valid descriptors.

Semantically, it would be valid to call a trip around the plates in baseball a “run home”, but you’d start to wonder about yourself if everyone suddenly started calling them that.

Also—holy shit, 30+ years?

The great mystery of our time is how the advanced videotape processing technologies of the mid-nineties disappeared without a trace.

A perhaps greater mystery is why I continue to use the Tumblr iPhone app, despite my roughly 50% “post to the wrong blog” rate when I do.

Twelve days ago, we had the latest recorded snow in Tulsa history.

The times, they are interesting.

Beats Pill… #UWANTIT

So this went through who knows how many levels of approval at both Radio Shack and their marketing firm, and not one single person said “That subject line sure looks spammy”?
