What's the difference between a jedi and a ninja?

A Jedi is nothing without the force. A Ninja is nothing without their "Ki".
At least, that's a difference from the fictional standpoint.

Actually, the answer should be: "A jedi is locked safely away in a DVD. A ninja is standing behind you. No, seriously." (Edit: Quote from the Ninja of Ask a Ninja.)

Is that a serious question or a joke?

That, SigInt, would be a joke.
I finally know what SigInt means. I couldn't ever come up with anything other than the Unix term "signal interrupt" which is shortened to "sigint."

Lol! Only a computer programmer could say that!

I'll be a hardcore programmer for life, I reckon. By choice or otherwise, I'm not sure.
Oh, and I do have an account on CCN, Laz. I'm pretty sure I'm just "Xian Lee" or some alternate spelling of it. Did I ask if you had a hand in Bible Dave?

You didn't know what SigInt meant? I'd think with all of Laz's quips about "a signal intelligence ninja" you'd have figured it out,

I think that's the first time I'd ever seen Laz say it. Oh well.
I was playing Pandora Tomorrow the other day and realized, "Sam Fisher is the modern ninja." I'm unsure as to how that thought didn't dawn on me before.

C$.

Do I need to put the definition in my signature or something?
I actually took "a SigInt ninja" from the first Splinter Cell when Lambert calls Sam Fisher that.

Huh. I would have never remembered that quote.

Oh yeah, I see your user account now.
No, I didn't have a hand in Bible Dave - it started before my time, for one thing; and I never really got involved.
So you've gone to the CGDC?
"Signed Integers" Another programming one!

Is the CCN going to be working on another community project? I haven't gone over and looked for myself.
Signed Integers? Sure, but I've never called those sigints... I have, on the other hand, sent many sigints to the system.

There's a community C++ learning project on, at least.
It's a shame you missed the game competition we had a few months ago - t'was fun.
