We probably underestimate how many people out there are just copy/pasters. No offence OP but I hope you dont work on anything that handles money/user data/requires security.


I do! I develop bespoke add-ons for the accounting software Sage 200. Fear not, my work is peer-reviewed by my boss who has 35+ years experience in the field.

If I get something wrong, my boss lets me know, I learn from my mistakes and ship out good quality software.

That crosses into personal attack. Please review the guidelines and don't do that here.

Every time I see a deleted comment and a reply like that, I get so morbidly curious what was said, and yet, I've _been_ a moderator on a forum, so I know for certain that reading it would never make my mood any _better_, just worse.

Is this just me? I know it's self destructive to seek out negativity like that, but that curiosity just won't go away.


Just set "showdead" to "yes" in your profile and the fruit of the poisoned tree will be yours.
