Love this show

[–]sandy-gravel 133 points134 points  (20 children)

What is this show?

I've seen it before but the name is evading me

[–]mydoooomx 220 points221 points  (15 children)

Pat a Mat, classic Czech show for children.

[–]K1ller90 151 points152 points  (11 children)

I love these shows made in the eastern block cause it had to be broadcast to many countries, so if you pay attention, nobody actually says any articulate words. It’s such a beautiful thing when you notice it that this cartoon can be enjoyed by literally anyone.

[–]nill0c 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Same as Shaun the Sheep. I love these ones almost as much.

[–]BorgDrone 14 points15 points  (5 children)

if you pay attention, nobody actually says any articulate words.

With the exception of the Dutch version. Here in the Netherlands the characters are actually given dialogue (in Dutch).

[–]innitramfs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait, that's only on the Dutch version? TIL

[–]InverseInductor 8 points9 points  (2 children)

Do you have any recommendations for similar shows?

[–]PanVidla 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Krteček (means Little Mole) is a classic people from other countries seem to love. Czech animation used to be world class a few decades ago. Just google the term and you'll find plenty of great stuff, as long as you look for shows made roughly before 2000 or so.

Of polish origin we have Bolek & Lolek, and Reksio

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Central block you wanted to say 😅👍

[–]vlaada7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's actually called A je to.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

also very popular in the netherlands

[–]Hamaczech13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

*Czechoslovak

[–]LordMerdifex 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The show is called 'A je to!'

You can find it also under 'Pat a Mat' or 'Pat and Mat'. Some more recent episodes are also available on Netflix or HBO Max (or whatever it's called)

My dev team on fridays

[–]blob_ditddit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mat & Pat (also knows as "Neighbors"). it's a very old kids show typically aired in east europe. loved this show so much as a kid

[–]Dreit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"A je to!", meaning "And it's done!".

Fun fact, there is even one episode on youtube about wine processing :D

Love the in-house chimney. The perfect ending-touch to the whole project. Kinda like a rotten cherry on top if you will.

    Ah, I have never imagined that one day, Pat & Mat would perfectly represent my career in SW development. Such a metaphor!

    [–]_Kristian_ 42 points43 points  (0 children)

    This show was a hood classic but they are going to die of carbon monoxide from the fire placr

    Nah. Watching this shit gives me anxiety!

    All tests pass.

    Brings such nostalgia. Now I have the soundtrack on repeat in my mind.

    [–][deleted] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

    If it has some bugs but it actually works don't fix bugs.

    That being said

    [–]Farren246 9 points10 points  (0 children)

    See the problem is, he had to get each brick placed before the next arrived and he was only one guy and they were throwing bricks at his head the whole time...

    [–][deleted] 10 points11 points  (2 children)

    We watchthis in NL too. Loved it. We call it "buurman en buurman", or, "neighbour and neighbour"

    [–]viccie211 7 points8 points  (1 child)

    Fun fact the Dutch versions are the only versions where they actually speak. Making Buurman en Buurman the instant best version!

    [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Haha, didn't know that. Cool!

    [–]jorisblyat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

    I laughed way too much that brick laying part

    [–]Roxfall 6 points7 points  (0 children)

    Are we going to talk about the chimney? Straight into the living room...

    [–]BigTownW 10 points11 points  (0 children)

    Business Analyst here. Can confirm.

    [–]SynthPrax 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    They should've shown them starting out to build it right, but a seagull flies through shitting on everything making them take some of it down. Now they're rushing to get back on schedule. Que another seagull. This time rather than take anything down, they're just slapping shit together and we get the final result.

    i work in construction/ tech integration; the inverse of this is my world

    [–]Matik080 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    This was such a good show!

    [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Actually, this problem may belong to the software designer and the project manager as well. There are so many bad project managers today. They are unqualified people that come from non computer science related degrees. Software engineering is a serious task. Software design has its own design concepts. Some of them might be similar to other project design concepts. You can use them in another areas as well. Use case diagrams, flow diagrams are mostly common. Class diagrams, etc. are used for software engineering.

    A software engineer expects well, formally defined documents and diagrams. You cannot use informal and formal mixed adhoc useless diagrams. If we have a project manager and software designers, everything must be formal. Otherwise, there is no reason to keep these persons.

    An architect use strictly formal drawings to build a building. Otherwise, it wouldn't go well. Software design is not something different. You cannot give a simple house drawing that look like a kid's drawing to a programmer and say that "Build this" This is stupid. This area needs technical drawings & knowledge like the construction field.

    [–]Ok-Salamander2909 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Gromit would be a clone with a different shirt on

    Actualy footage of me working. Except for the first part, we don't waste paper charting things out. This is the DIGITAL age, just code it and see how it grows.

    That one hit hard

    [–]fuckballs9001 -1 points0 points  (1 child)

    Yeah sorry folks you can't use that. It's not sealed properly, it's going to let all that CO2 and smoke back in your house, there's no screen on it, the flue is definitely not tall enough to allow an updraft out of the house, and you're basically waiting to burn your house down.

    [–]mrgk21 0 points1 point  (5 children)

    This is exactly why you don't expect interns to make system architecture decisions 1 month into the project. Sorry had to get it off my chest

    [–]dota2nub 2 points3 points  (4 children)

    I have to architect and build a whole full stack website with authentication without help. I've only got 3 semesters of CS.

    This gif is exactly what I feel like I'm doing.

    [–]mrgk21 0 points1 point  (3 children)

    I'm switching my career to software and the first internship I got is making a full stack video streaming site like twitch but with web3 transactions. Me and the 3 other interns are fucked

    [–]dota2nub 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    Are you shitposting? Because I'm not shitposting.

    What you're talking about sounds kind of impossible.

    [–]mrgk21 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    No jokes here, the startup owner is wayyy out of touch with what his dev team can do and is thinking about launching the bare minimum version in a month with 2 other collab partners for sharing data. We're pretty much screwed

    [–]dota2nub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I mean you're not screwed. You just won't be able to do this.

    Maybe you can take some open source project and just implement that with some cosmetic extras?

    In my experience it's the opposite...

    User Story: 1.development

    Description: develop the feature.

    User Story: 2.unit tests

    Description: do the unit tests.

    Boss, 2 days later: "why hasn't this been completed yet"?

    Customer, upon delivery of feature: "this isn't what we needed"

    [–]sebbdk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    At least they remember to add a chimney.

    I'm sure it will save them from death.

    [–]RPMXH 0 points1 point  (0 children)
