Based on your experience what is the most common penis erection angle?
  • Doesn't that depend on who's checking? Reminds me of this old joke:

    A nurse goes to check on a patient..she checks on her patient then quickly leaves the room. She goes to the nurses station to tell the other nurses what she has seen. Nurse says: "You'll never guess what I saw when I changed his bedpan. He has a tattoo on his penis that says "Swan"

    The other nurse goes in to check it out and returns 5 minutes later saying: "You're right about the tattoo..... but it says "Saskatchewan"

  • I get you with the windows 7 thing but how big is this company? There's a point where "corporate best practices" don't make sense because there are fewer employees. Maybe negotiate with the boss for one or two of the top things on your list and push the rest until next year.

    Also, no matter where you are you'll probably end up frustrated with management not giving you what you need.

    Not mentioning the downsides of the other sensors always makes me suspicious of an article.

    The key point of going vision-only is that: its what humans do every day. Articles that leave that out also disappoint me.
