Troutman's Postulate
  1. Profanity is the one language understood by all programmers.
  2. Not until a program has been in production for six months will the most harmful error be discovered.
  3. Job control cards that positively cannot be arranged in improper order will be.
  4. Interchangeable tapes won't.
  5. If the input editor has been designed to reject all bad input, an ingenious idiot will discover a method to get bad data past it.
  6. If a test installation functions perfectly, all subsequent systems will malfunction.

Quote:1. Profanity is the one language understood by all programmers.

Define profanity: if "fuck" is considered profanity why isn't "using a Windows Server"? considered profanity?  Ask yourself which one of those you'd rather spend your time doing, and which one of those is a foul, vile, disgusting, profane act to be avoided at all costs.  :twistedevil:

I agree, but what am I supposed to do when the corporate world is Microsoft? I have to learn the crap.
