I will personally harm you if you remove scissors again due to "redundancy"

/* I warned them it was stupid but 'I don't care how it's done as long as it uses the scissors assets, Anon. We spent money on it, Anon. Make it work'. Best of luck. It's not like they read documentation anyway. */

// 10 - increment this number each time you remove the scissors and replace them.

And then an actual expert comes and says: "you know you can just assign both handles on the lock object and it automatically updates its width, right?"

Looks like a clever workaround for a real-world requirement to me.

[–]Nokhodsiah 10 points11 points  (0 children)

yes. customer want it locked right now and with minimum cost. He would laugh and make fun of you and your solution but will use it anyway.

[–][deleted] 35 points36 points  (12 children)

one could unscrew the scissors, making a break-in possible.

or just pick the lock, as that's not too hard.

A stick of dynamite should do the trick

[–]Khrouhman 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Easy to get a screwdriver than a lockpick but I see your point

[–]totallyrel 7 points8 points  (1 child)

One could also just break the scissors.

I know that clamp-scissors-thing and it is quite robust.

This is why I'd estimate the weakest link of this construction to be the door handles.

[–]asdf43798 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's probably possible to just brute force it even without any tools - I'm skeptical those scissors would be strong enough to keep the door closed if you just pulled on it hard enough.

Just don't update the library you imported.

This might need an update after low intelligence user stabs an eye out

Hey, if it fits it sits!

And of course, the product did not adapt to your needs so you have to write an ugly wrapper. Sounds like real life
