Agreed and a welcome to the new CodeProject poster.  
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

APOD appears to be too zoomed in.
Where exactly is the Running Chicken?[^]
The color balance is different enough to make orienting the two pictures difficult, but the APOD is showing the area about 1/3rd of the way up from the bottom and in from the left. The Bok globules in the photographers zoomed image[^] are the same; but because the nebulosity is more intense outside that area it's colors are much less saturated than in the APOD.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I'd check that before I spoke. Otherwise, well plaid, lad, well plaid.

So, I took this test as part of an application process. This is what it came up with:
I am "unlikely to set challenging work goals, and may exert a low level of effort toward achievement of goals"
I "may not persist when faced with difficulties or obstacles, or when success seems unlikely"
I "have little interest in volunteering for or taking on new work responsibilities or challenges"
I "Appear to have little or no interest in taking charge, or directing and leading others; may be hesitant to offer opinions"
I "May not be consistently pleasant, good-natured, or cooperative"
The one thing it failed to mention:
"I will be contacting a lawyer to sue Pearson, the creator of this test." I kid you not. These personality tests are utter bullshit.

Good god man, how do you even function in society! 
If a company made me take this test as part of the application/interview process, I would not.

I think mainly because I was curious, the company contacted me, and I really don't need any more work anyways, I figured, what the hell, let's dance.
It was very educational, and now I know what not to do in the future.

Looks familiar. Did the test involve answering the same questions several times only phrased slightly differently. I took a test like that a few years ago and got the impression I scored zero but my manager wouldn't discuss it with me.
Your analysis seems to match mine.
I may not last forever but the mess I leave behind certainly will.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
