If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

I was at a meeting discussing a project and some bright spark (my manager's manager) asked me what was used for source control and bug tracking.

I said "Source control - team foundation server, and my code doesn't have bugs." Big Grin | :-D

I don't believe you because there is no such thing as a 3rd party component that "just works".

It's not the best feeling in the world. It's the worst because you haven't found the bugs yet and now have no idea where to look to find them! Smile | :)

And that's the thing that's scaring me. Deeply.

I've run it once and now I'm going over everything with a fine tooth comb. I'm expecting the equivalent of the moment I look up at exactly the moment a huge fanged gelatinous monster hiding on the ceiling above my head drops onto me and devours me in a pool of green slime.

after extensive research (and despite one or two of the responses below that, really, shou'd have had the joke icon) i find that, in fact, this is the first time that this has actual,y happened.

pending documentary evidence, i propose calling this a 'Maunder Moment'

Oh, no no no no NO! My code is perfect. It runs. It has a zero bug count.

I'm not letting it out of the house.

EVER.

In fact I'm not going to run it again.

Primitusaetasfactum (Primitus-Aetas-Factum).

Primitus is the latin word for First.
Aetas is the latin word for Time.
Factum is the latin word for Work(ing); also the meaning "accomplishment" or "achievement".

In summary, this means "first time working", or "first time achieved".
