I'm baffled by that opinion. The fact that memory-unsafe software keeps on being produced in C/C++ is a good thing?

However this one time I was completely baffled. The spreadsheet look fine at first glance, yet my routine rejected it.

I am baffled as to why you'd build your castle atop a crumbling foundation. I have wondered why FB didn't use a proper language with proper typing to begin with.

I'm baffled. I'm a programmer and i rather like SQL. Most programmers i know use SQL quite happily.

Even flying for an airline, I'm baffled by the sense of danger some passengers feel by going up in a large jet. Here's a startup that's trying to reverse the decline of GA flying - OpenAirplane.

I'm baffled by your surprise at the reaction. Are you likewise surprised by the fact that people don't like the guy who comes up to the bowl labeled "Free Candy" and takes all of the candy, leaving none for anyone else?"

To this day I'm baffled as to what confusion of ideas lead to that interface. They fixed this in the December 19th update/redesign but I'm sure it persisted for at least a couple of years.

I am baffled by the people voting you up and those questioning you down. It is not "in the Constitution" that two parties can't agree to a binding contract that transfers ownership of work product.

The doctors around him were baffled by the steep decline, which is why he was flown to France just before he died. I acknowledge that my theory on the issue is purely circumstantial, but a good place to start with these things is "qui bono?"

I'm absolutely baffled by that. Yes, I might know what it is, and have some idea about what it can do, but if this was a television commercial, I'd bet money that such a campaign would be a quickly forgotten failure.

I'm still baffled as to your evidence; apparently the Mongolians are hard bastards and like fucking, or something. What's asinine is that you have no evidence for your wild, extraordinary claim.

So much so that when I tried to drive from Phoenix to Los Angeles early one morning, I was surprised, then baffled, then amazed, then outraged that there was no Starbucks at all on I-10. I spent nearly 4 hours driving with no mocha in me at all, and was likely a hazard to other drivers.

"I am baffled as to why you'd build your castle atop a crumbling foundation." Congratulations for admitting your ignorance, and lending open ears to experts as to why they made certain engineering decisions.

These desks are the norm in every office here in Denmark and I am always baffled that it is some kind of esoteric thing worthy of debate in America. Having gotten used to them at the office, I got one for my home because I could no longer bear having to sit all the time.

Somewhere in all that mess, Apple's sales team identifies the sometimes timid, frequently baffled first-time customer, answers questions, addresses their concerns, and ultimately sells them what is by all accounts an expensive ass computer. Let's take a step back.

This is second in annoyance only to company blogs that don't have a tagline explaining wtf the product is, leaving me baffled when I click though from here or wherever. Thankfully people seem to have learned from this and you don't often end up dumped, contextless into the middle of some domain-specific screed any more.

It amuses me to hear how middle-class people are baffled by the fetishization of criminality in hip-hop culture, when we fetishize the same type of assholes in our culture. Mitnick is a criminal and all the pro-hacking sympathies have been wasted on a very, very undeserving person.

I've had to install windows 7 on a computer recently and was baffled by the fact the realtek ethernet, USB3, video drivers weren't included in the base windows 7 CD. Had I used the manufacturer's recovery option it might have helped but my computer would have been loaded with crapware. Ubuntu longterm support works like a charm on that computer.

You'll see plenty of spam on the /new page, but for almost every [dead] comment you see you'll be baffled as to what happened. Sometimes it's just a duplicate post, and occasionally for hellbanned users you can page back through their history of good but [dead] comments and find a brief fit that could have been disciplined easily with a week's time out or even a simple admonishment to stop.
