You did what!!! Hmmm...I think I need some time to figure out if that is a brilliant move or if it is the mother of bad decisions

I am not sure but I certainly hope that the new pole is writing the additional code in english

[Dear Lord. Please let the new Polak code and document in Polish too]
I am so sorry, but this is the funniest thing I have seen all week. I don't want it to end

That's what you get when after the first review you provide the feedback "it's mostly good but needs more polish"

Hahaha, kind of hilarious, but easily avoidable. Should have asked for a code review early in the dev cycle to make sure this new contractor was up to snuff.

We shouldn't have asked him "to polish the app a bit".

Did he use Polish diacritic in the variable names (like "ą ę ó" etc.)? That would be awful. BTW I have no idea what the hell is "Boffo"... it sounds like a joke to me.
Once I was working on a project in which there was a requirement to name database columns in Polish. Maybe it's because the rest of it was in Deutsch. The code was in English, though, while comments still in Polish...

While I was in a telephonic conference at work, I heard someone speak "Can we get someone to enhance the bugs in the application?". I'm still wondering how on Earth someone can enhance a bug.
|
|
|
|
|
What's so odd about this?? It's done every minute of every day when someone sits in front of a computer and writes code. We call them "features".
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mangement likes what you've done to address the issue, however, they would like to know if you could enhance the feature by using more colors?
It was broke, so I fixed it.
|
|
|
|
|
I knew a guy, and whenever he was asked for a status update:
"I've finished writing all the bugs, and now I'm fixing them."
It always sounds much more confident than admitting it's all broken and nowhere near ready.
|
|
|
|
|
It's easy. I can make better bugs in my code than you can. Sort of like the universe enhances fools every time I manage to program something foolproof.

Of course, variables changed, methods renamed, and parameters omitted to protect the (not so) innocent.
if (condition_a)
{
if (condition_b)
{
if (AlertBox("Something wrong here. You wanna continue?"))
{
CheckAvailability();
}
}
else if (condition_c)
{
if (AlertBox("Some other thing wrong here. You wanna continue?"))
{
CheckAvailability();
}
}
else
{
CheckAvailability();
}
CheckAvailability();
}
else
{
CheckAvailability();
}

i like the path in which the availability gets checked twice
|
|

Looks like CheckAvailabilty() is void, and has to throw an Exception in case of non-availability.
Consequently, that call has to be wrapped:
try
{
CheckAvailability();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
if (AlertBox("Some other thing wrong here. You wanna continue?"))
{
CheckAvailability();
}
}
You are right, that guy does not know how to do things correctly!

Of course it works.
|
|
|
|
|
I think it works be cause the constructor and initialization sections both return a reference to the newly constructed object. But trying to call another function at the end will not work since the show function does not return a reference to the object.

Do you get paycheck deductions every time you use a semicolon?
Epic misuse, IMHO.

In that case, it works does not mean you should use it. This is totally unreadable at first. In the professional World, when any day you can be out of project(read job, as worst case) and some other poor sod has to maintain it, this is one of the things that leads to rants and posts in this very forum.

I've just seen this wonderful comment in the "Other suggestions" section of one of our beautiful CPP-headers:

Oy vey. My monitor is only 1680x1050, whatever will I do?
Perhaps whoever wrote that doesn't know that we can choose the size of our text?
And I suspect he hasn't learned from the past.
