Indeed, it was a trick question.
But then: How many engineers does it take to change their boss[^]???

Well according to the statistics: None, they got personnel for that.

The client first tried a hardware solution, but the proposed equipment was incompatible with the existing infrastructure.
Then the client tried a software solution on the recommendation of his *nix friends that were experts in Javascript and node.js, but once the software was delivered, there was no documentation and he couldn't figure out all the command line options to download the various open source dependencies to get the code to compile.
Then the client outsourced the problem to a new consulting agency which charged him $250/hr an hour and finally delivered a candle without a wick.
In a last ditch attempt to save shareholder money, he decided to contract it out to an Indian firm. The resulting light bulb only turned on when it was dark in India and blew the fuse, but it didn't matter much because the bulb shattered after a few days anyways.
Giving up, the client decided to go back to college to learn how hardware works and how to write software. After years of studying, he's now patenting this[^] and starting his own light bulb replacement franchise. He's getting lots of publicity, everyone is talking about this new amazing technology, investors are throwing money at him, and Docker is working on creating a container for it.

I was just singing .Net's praises to a colleague today precisely because some php 'expert' has given us some 'simple' code which involved lots of libraries and dependencies none of which have been documented and when we go online to find the libraries they are incomplete.

Aaaaggh! And thrice Aaaaggh!
I ordered a new thermo nuclear deterrentstat for the old car and I went to pick it up. No gasket what they were supposed to have as well.
Why no gasket? No one makes them
I have bought some gasket paper and will cut my own using the old one as a template.

You guys bust me up. 95 F is normal here in the summer, it was 106 F last summer. I loves it, my precious!

Funnily we get it a lot hotter in Hungary, most years it'll break 40°C, but it doesn't have this awful humidity. I've been out in the Gulf in mid summer when it's nudged 50°C and it's not so painful.
The UK was not designed for anything over 27.6°C.

I was in Marrakech last week and it was nudging 40 but it was a damn sight easier than it is in England nudging 30, damn humidity is the problem.

That is exactly my experience. There is nothing worse than a hot day in the UK.
Except maybe Malaysia, I'm reliably informed by a colleague that it is permanent sticky humid weather there.

When I was at my parent's house, we had an old piston water pump for the well.
Every few years, the gasket would need to be replaced.
I remember watching my Dad take the old gasket, put it on an old leather glove, trace, cut, place.
New leather gasket in place for the next few years.

Oh you gonna need that!
My phone said it 27°C and it feels like 34°C so if weather keeps up to the 33°C max it would feel like 40°C ? Im not ready for that without a proper Nuclear shelter that is cooled

36°C here in the shade according to my thermometer. I don't want to think what it will be like at the garage, but you can bet your baby's shoe money it will be a fair bit more!

Got no THermometer to tell you the exact value, but i send you cool wishes so you don'Ät melt. 36 in the shade is pretty tough
