Some time ago, the Seattle Times ran an article on how your restaurant tip gets divided up among the staff. A week later, they ran an entire article of responses to the original article, some from customers, but many from restaurant staff (both cooks and servers). And, now on a roll, the next week’s food section looked at the sociology of splitting the bill with a sidebar looking at how hard it is for different types of restaurants.

Raymond has been involved in the evolution of Windows for more than 30 years. In 2003, he began a Web site known as The Old New Thing which has grown in popularity far beyond his wildest imagination, a development which still gives him the heebie-jeebies. The Web site spawned a book, coincidentally also titled The Old New Thing (Addison Wesley 2007). He occasionally appears on the Windows Dev Docs Twitter account to tell stories which convey no useful information.
