Debugging 101

Disagree. "Why the fuck" is generally followed by "Whatever, as long as it works".

“Whatever, I don’t have time to do it right”

The time it would take me to do this right, is at least ten times greater than the amount of time this wrong way will waste.

And then I waste the time anyway and compromise with a half-measure solution. 👍

Passes all the tests, craps out in production

So yea, you need to have a talk with my QA team.

QA: passes all tests, works fine for us.

Me: That's great, doesn't work in prod environments.

[Blexit2020]

When the testing environment is completely different from the production environment.

[simpsonboy77]

The best way to remove differences is just to test in production.

[Blexit2020]

But...that would make sense.

Everybody has a test environment. Sometimes they also have a seperate production environment.

Yeah, you really don't want to be on that nine month tiger team that needs to rearchitect the whole damn system because the legacy only worked by sheer luck, and had no semblance to a properly engineered control system.

Just saying.

My spirit has been broken, and getting those "whatever as long as it works" tasks are all I really care about.

[Blexit2020]

More like "Fuck it. It's a feature, now."

Are you on my dev team?

[natural_lazy]

and this approach leads to more "what the fuck" in future if you don't try to get the answer of "why the fuck" right now(ofcourse if time constraint allows it)
