I stopped reading “Worse Than Failure” when I realized that they kept recycling the same four examples over and over again:
- the stupid boss
- the novice mistake
- the overcomplicated system
- the idiot co-worker
There, that’s “Worse Than Failure” summed up.
Oh yeah, “Error’d” and “Code Snippet of the Day”:
Error
The operation completed successfully
10 PRINT "HELLO"
20 GOTO 20
That’s them. I almost forgot.
And the comments - condensed: “Brillant Paula Bean has “Orange” as Captcha which is not a WTF” is the real WTF.
