There’s one guy in my department who does all the smart home shit, but I absolutely don’t see the point in it. Didn’t even connect the washing machine to the wi-fi as you can’t set it going without having loaded it first anyway.

My CV vs whatever the heck turned up to the office this morning.

Somebody who worked here before tried to do functional in C# by passing delegates into methods instead of injecting interfaces into constructors, across hundreds of repositories. This is why clever people should not be allowed to write code.

Technically correct, as the request processed successfully and returned the outcome. TBH this is just one reason why HTTP is a bad RPC medium; for some reason we keep reinventing SOAP even though no-one liked it the first time around.

My delivery manager says he committed to a date. I’m a software engineer - I never commit to anything, and certainly not dates.

Just wait. It’ll be the same as the last one with a slightly different city.

I think they meant to say “threatens”.

I will play each of these for five minutes.

He should tell them to piss off if they offer.

They forgot the bit where the Waterfall method blew through the budget and deadline about five times over.

It’s about money.
