That people with a mental illness can do stuff too? They use computers just like 'we' do? They can actually write OS' so it might be interesting to see what he uses to get his stuff done? I'm actually a bit underwhelmed

Living in a country where this stuff is practically legal (although not really is): yes, did smoke it like once a week during uni. Not that much any more, more like once or twice a year. Can't imagine developing "on it" thoug

And this is - IMO - where the magic happens. It's somewhat doable to "waterproof" your unit tests; but getting every (possible? Required? Anticopated?) interaction tested? Magic. I'm not saying tests are evil, I actually

In the same way that writing a unit test for something proves your logic is correct? This is not intended as a snark or something. Just stating the obvious that your unit tests are no silver bullet to a working correct piece of software. My

I fully agree in this case. But am hestitant to call for the same treatment of e.g. A web framework. Question to answer then is: Where does the plumbing stop and the kitchen begin?

Finally... acknowledgement from someone famous. TDD is wonderfull in theory, just no missing edge-case detection; stuff you easily spot when using a "hybrid continuous testing methodology". I'd say: Code away! Just make sure

One simple situation in which you would like to switch modes on the transponder (ok, so this is not technically shutting the transponder down) is when - for example - a loss of cabin pressure occurs. Since most (all?) commercial arliners wi
