90% of programming I have seen after a decade plus of doing it full time is minor changes being made to code that was already made by someone. Likely not documented. Likely already changed in a dozen little ways. Math isn’t the problem. Understanding what the guy who wrote it is often the problem.

Oh and you can’t ask them because they likely don’t work here anymore.

Being a programmer is more like being a detective than anything else unless you work for a small company.

I am saddened to see that this thread had no mention of how many horses it takes to run a router. What do y’all think? Would one be enough? It would need to work in shifts to keep up time at 100%. Maybe 3 to be safe?

Not going to lie, even after you pointed it out, it took me a minute to find it lol. Hell yeah, that’ll keep her secure.

But is it locked? Better slap a padlock on it somewhere, then give it two slaps and say “no one’s getting in there”.

It’s the companys fault for looking at the 151 and saying, what if we replaced all this with random bullshit? I miss the og pokemon. I tried playing newer games but damn, it’s pure chaos.

I love how you think it’s over then some mfer gets out of the car like “wut”? Like, what the hell? I’m here saving your ass, what were you doing?

That is awesome. And maybe this is a dumb question but… Would that actually make the report of the gun louder?

An amazing story, and just downright perplexing. It is a shame you never found out what on earth was going on in the CTOs head. I would love to understand the thought process (or lack thereof) that went into that.

The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed.
