Plot twist: 95% of the engineering team was fired once the code was “done”. Including the poor schmuck who authored this.
// TODO: for wild capitalist fantasies only, rework before building entire economic systems around this
if IsCEO() {
openGoldenParachute()
}
If that’s the approach they took, and especially if it made it into a source code repository, I’d probably have fired them a long time ago!
But because everyone is working off a 6TB Nas shared over the LAN at the office. No one really knows who changed the code. So we decided to fire 51% of the team figuring we got em.
Glad I’m not the only one working on the server
Obviously if team was doing agile with CI/CD to promote frequent deployments and testing they would’ve never encountered this mess /s
At least our programmer had the decency to comment that bit as being disabled for debugging :D
“eh we’ll fix it in post”
