    I agree with this one.

    Ya I didn't quite get that one either. Link state distributes topological data, but the computation is local.

    "Never tell your CEO that there is no EASY button."

    It's the color code used for resistors in electronics. I just memorize black=0, brown=1, red=2, orange=3 etc. I've never seen this phrase extended for the gold, silver, and none tolerance percentages before.
