What's that got to do with the price of fish?

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

I learned about open-source hardware design and creation, from a very peculiar and interesting man.

If a project is scheduled to take 2 days it will take 2 days (including unforseen incidents)

If a project is scheduled to take someone else 2 weeks it will take them nearly 3, overrun into my work and mean I have to leave for work extra early tomorrow so I can prep for the presentation that I was meant to prepare for this afternoon but had to jump on because it was already a number of days late, and below standard on quality


Also the words "Where is the spec" must be Mandarin or some other foreign language no developer speaks. How can you test that something does what it is meant to when you have no record of what it is meant to do in the first place?

Y'see, it's a new car for Caz and Him Indoors, but it's not even the hot looking Astra model. It's the frumpy, run-of-the-mill model that came before it. :lol:
