The Right Brain vs Left Brain test | PerthNow

whose work?

Linux Kernel v2.6.23 Released:
am i there to help the computer do it’s job? or is the computer there to help me do mine?

actually i think that in the current age, jobs are made to use the computer, so the job is … not to help you, but it exists solely for you to do it with the computer. that’s somewhat scary.
