Dec. 7th, 2004 04:43 pmToday in a nutshell:
"Hey! This is broken."
*tinkertinkertinker*
"Try it now."
"Hey! It works."
repeat 2x.
Inject meeting.
Business, non-technology person tries a big ol' scope creep. Rejected. (OK, so![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lokheed and i sorta rehearsed this last night) Then, post-meeting, we found a Sooper Simple™ way to fulfil the request which would otherwise have been a Major Pain In the Ass™, and even better, a few minutes later he figured out that we already have the capability we'd thought we'd have to figure out how to build. Guess what developer's going to get to look like an Absolute GEEEEEEENIUS™. We're going to have a happy business user, which is a good thing, especially when the one in question is a bit of a twit.
Post-meeting, insert lunch at desk.
Post lunch at desk, poking at code.
"Hey- there's a bug!"
*tinkertinkertinkerpokearoundinsourcecode*
OK, it's coming from this snippet of code.
repeat n times until it's time to go home.
