I once took apart a friend's boiler, looking for the cause of its not working.
After I had spread the thousand pieces out and checked every possible fault, I noticed that the bluddy thing had been turned off at the socket.
Had a similar thing with another friend's oven. Same routine, but dirtier, to find the non-existent fault, and then twigged that the timer had been set, so it could only work from 19:00 to 19:40 each day. Try to turn it on at another time, and it would wait until 19:00.

I once went to my boss telling him I needed a new monitor because mine went broke somewhere last night.
I had two and one just worked like always, but the other didn't, no matter what I tried.
So my boss came to look at the monitor.
And then he turned it on
If stupidity hurt I'd still feel that one

Doh!, note to self, must read more than the first ten posts of a thread. I'm my own defense though, the search utility would never have found it.

When I quit (19 years ago) they were $3.00 USD, now they're $12. I still think about them , then I think how much more cash I have not buying the stupid things.

My coworker this morning started to "take shots" at my use of the "q" object in our project.
Through some discussion I told him that I appreciated the clarity, and that angular also has the "q" model so the code would look the same on both ends. You also don't need to guess on weather or not something is goina block, etc (especially if you are new to the code type). It also allows us to implement a waiting on things that normally wouldn't.
Most importantly, all with a consistent interface. All the code base uses the same methods.
His argument was "I prefer the async in node". A great argument!
What do you think?

I think that arguments are relevant, and preferences aren't.

I think the end satisfies the means, whatever option can make it work best should be used... tough i would like to see a better argument than that.

I win anyway unless there's good evidence of why not. I'm the only one that writes code in the project. He also has only basic experience with node and only simple sample projects with angular.
I just thought the conversation was .... odd.

Sounds like your average college group project discussion.
i remember having this conversation once:
Student 1: "As for version control, should we go for Git or SVN?"
me: "School provides a svn server so we might aswell use it."
student 2: "we should use Git."
Student 1: "... and why?"
student 2: "because it's awesome!"
Try asking the lad if why i thinks async should be used asside from prefference and counter it.
Even if he's a greenhorn (like me btw)

I prefer the one that gives the better performance-test results, whether I find it aesthetically, egoistically, or sexually appealing or not.
If it's neither, then I, quite frankly, don't give a toss.

I have been reading a lot of crazy news stories lately, originating from South Africa. Maybe it has always been there in print, I'm just now noticing it...who knows.
