ES-3A had excellent quality control, Tomahawk very nearly as good as ES-3A, Aegis Gun quality sucked. The gun had an impossible development schedule and the people were just demoralized and didn't try very hard at quality, although I thought we could do better, and was glad to leave the project.
Yeah, it was hectic but rewarding. When your software works, it saves soldiers and sailors. If it doesn't, they may die, which was my concern with the gun. Don't know of any incidents where sailors were hurt, but the potential was there.

Right, I understand. The rewarding aspect, I'm sure, was enjoyable.

Last 14 years in the industrial control biz, specifically industrial refrigeration. everything from windows computers with serial ports down to embedded devices, controlling: O2 & Co2 levels, pressures and temperatures, power shedding.....
Personally I love it; code that modifies a database record is boring  , code that interacts with the real world is fun 
If I ever decided to leave this industry, wearables or medical devices have a certain calling.

I started out in Sub-marines and now I'm in aviation. Being certified software there are a lot of hoops to jump through and it can sometimes feel more like we've checked some boxes rather than add anything to the software quality. But overall, I enjoy the safety-critical real-time aspects to programming.

I'm sorry, I neither see the association with the original post nor do I think it appropriate.
The original post was a satire on a serious issue in Cricket and yours was about "hot girlfriends". If the association was sport, I think it pretty weak.
You should have at least given a warning as some might find the content of your link offensive. I would not have followed the link myself had I known its content. The context implied that it was about arm flexing (chucking); at the very least I would have expected something on sporting controversy.
There are ladies on CP too!

Otherwhise before you post a link also you Need to watch the side for an unlimited tine to avoid something of this.
Therefor your downvoat is completely wrong!

Bruno, I did not post any link it was posted by Nish Sivakumar.
Nor do I agree with your postulation. Links on pages that are linked to are not being recommended by the poster, just the original page. If we follow the logic, then a poster should follow every link on a page and links on those pages, forming a possibly infinite chain.
The truth is that I'm not particularly offended by your link, it has no interest to me, but it has the potential to offend others. My major point is that it was both off topic and potentially offensive (especially the word "Hot")and the link should at least have been covered with an appropriate caveat. Something like "there was a link on that page to girlfriends of sports starts (warning: might cause offense)".

Phil, please, it was a link I "found" on the page the original link was!
"found" is is an understatement, he was obviously.
_I_ _am_ _not_ responsible for that!
Kind regards, Bruno

Bruno, it's not a personal attack, just a reminder that some content is questionable. If HR had walked by my desk when I opened the link I would have expected a tongue lashing, if not a write-up.
Just please exercise more caution!

Ok Phil, I understand this. I will avoid such things in future.

Most sites show customized ads based on a user's browsing history, which is usually extracted via cookies. If you saw a slightly NSFW ad, then that's possibly because someone's been browsing that sort of site on that machine (not necessarily you). I did not see any NSFW ads on the page when I viewed it. FYI.

Chance is very low for me, because my Cookies are off 
Anyway case seems to be solved.

Nish, you realize that many CPers really don't know what an offspinner is!

Yeah, I figured a lot of people won't get this, but thought that enough would, so went ahead with it anyway.
