 Fire and Forget - Topic
One consideration of the fire and forget concept is if the missile is released beyond it's terminal mode and losses it's target designation from the parent aircraft it will look for the largest(or only) target in it's scan area and lock onto it if possible.
But neither are true fire and forget (like the Maverick), because depending on the range, they both need initial guidance before their tiny onboard radar gets tracking data.
I usually 'Fire and Forget' that the enemy is likely to fire back.....and then my plane gets broken and I throw my joystick away and my finacee says "Grow up".

 Rethink IT: Scotiabank used IBM's MQ for mortgage requests you can fire and forget - User Case Study
Fire and forget applications are that rare half-breed between teal time and hatch processing, that need to work in a given timeframe, in a given order, but where usually, the effort to make them real time wouldn't be worth it.
"We've had a number of other uses of MQ for what we call 'pointed' solutions, where fire and forget is appropriate, where you don't need real time power.
"MQ offers asynchronous communications, a sort of fire and forget process, so in order to be sure that transactions have completed we needed to ensure that there was a two phase process for committing transactions."

 Amiga Reviews: Fire and forget 1
Fire and Forget also offers a two-player option, where the second combatant takes control of the ‘Thunder Cloud’ — a small, winged craft which mimics the speed of the TM and can be guided left and right of the screen in order to fend off attack from enemy aircraft.
Fire and Forget on the Amiga retains the latter quality but is desperately short of convincing 3D as well.
The amount of obstacles to avoid and the speed at which the enemy craft appear is ludicrous: you really DO have to fire and forget, since you have no real hope of avoiding all of the oncoming objects.

I, myself, have never ascribed to the "Fire and Forget" method of spell casting, feeling that if all you are doing is memorizing words, then there is no reason why you should forget it at the end of the day.
However, I'm not really fond of "fire and forget." Most of the non-magical abilities of characters can be used repeatedly.

The first game in the Fire and Forget series was sadly never to be seen on the C64.
We all may remember the sequel to Fire and Forget coming onto our C64 screens in the early 90's, but the eagled eyed people out there will have realised that like with the likes of James Pond, only the sequel ever actually

 Mike Woodring's .NET Sample Page
This has two effects: allowing the server-side code to continue firing the event callback to clients that were registered after the 'bad' client, and eliminating the needless timeout the next time this event is fired by removing the offending client from the list.
In either case, the runtime will have provided a top-level exception handler that either throws the exception away (as with a timer) or marshals the exception back to the client (as when a remote method invocation caused the event to fire).
More typically, however, the thread that fires the event is not 'yours', but rather a pooled thread that was used to process an incoming remote method invocation, or maybe a timer tick event.

 TI Applies Latest Infrared Technology in New "Fire-and-Forget" Antitank Weapon System
TI, which has been developing the fire-and forget technology since 1980, is one of three companies selected for the Technical Demonstration phase of the AAWS-M weapons concept scheduled for completion November, 1988.
Unlike other systems, which require a gunner to stay in position after firing and guide a missile to the target, TI's fire-and-forget technology allows the gunner to take cover or move to another position.
DALLAS (Dec. 2, 1987) - Texas Instruments is applying the latest in infrared technology to develop a "fire-and-forget" Advanced Antitank Weapon System - Medium (AAWS-M) for the U.S. Army and Marine Corps, the company said today.

 Fire and Forget
Pilots launching guided missiles may be able to fire and forget, but the friends and families of those killed by these same missiles will find it much harder to forget.
But the fact that the term ‘fire and forget’ is even used is disturbing: how can there be any morality in war when such concepts are the currency of military vocabulary?
This chilling phrase is used in military and arms manufacturing circles to describe a missile system that is fired and then becomes ‘autonomous’, working out the co-ordinates for where it should be going for itself.

 Army Technology - Gill/Spike Anti-Armour Missile Systems (Anti-Armor Anti-Tank Weapon)
This means that the gunner does not need to lock-on to the target before launch, but can choose the target after launch and steer the missile to the target's most vulnerable point or hand over to fire-and-forget.
The missile automatically propels itself towards the target without any additional interaction and this fire-and-forget capability allows the soldier the option of relocating to a new firing position or to reload immediately for the next engagement.

 TOW FIRE AND FORGET (TOW-F&F) - FY01 Activity
The TOW Fire and Forget LFTandE program, spanning FY02 to FY05, includes three phases that will begin with warhead testing and then progress through end-to-end firings against representative tank targets.

A DOTandE's major concern with the TOW-FandF TEMP draft is the relationship between modeling and simulation (MandS) as a risk reduction endeavor and the desire by the PM to reduce costs and minimize missile flight tests through the use of MandS to complement or supplement operational effectiveness and suitability assessments.
