I don't even want to know why you thought of that... 
Anyway, it's not

public class SanderRossel : Lazy<Person>

throw new NotSupportedException();

Don't be embarrassed. Nothing wrong with a little p

I know, in fact I wish it were some p, but it's not...
Of course I could always make another one...

Why is it that as I read this I think of PowerPoint?

Because it does the same as PowerPoint, but a little different?

Ahm, maybe because of the word "slideshow"?
We're thinking the same thing. The "fades out" word makes me imagine one of Powerpoint's slide transition.

Nice, I want something just like that. I don't have a lot of time though. Lots of stuff to do and I have a deadline.

The fact that a country has to come out and state they are not starting World War Three is a little scary to me.

Don't panic - he's the Prime Minister of the UK and there are two reasons why he would make such a statement:
1) We can't afford WWIII at the moment.
2) He's up for re-election next year and doesn't think being responsible blowing up most of the world will improve his standing in the polls...

I'm not sure which polls he's worried about. Let's not forget, this is a man who's:
He's obviously targeting the "we hate the Internet, but we love magic and other nonsense" vote.

Indeed. The same demographic that DD is after: conservatives.

Seriously though, I don't know why this is seen as bad. The person we democratically voted in(sort of) made a law and we are moaning because the ECJ (who we didn't democratically elect) declares it illegal. Surely we should be standing up for the person we elect to be able to make changes?

So next year, when Nige and pals take over, and they revoke the Race Relations Act so they can get away with their racist rants, we should support those actions because we "sort-of" elected them?

My point is that you were trying to say that DC did something wrong by going against what the ECJ had deemed illegal. But DC was elected by us whereas the ECJ wasn't.
If Nigel is elected at least you have the opportunity to oppose him.

I wasn't trying to suggest that I thought it was wrong because of the ECJ ruling. More that I think it's wrong, and the ECJ ruling supports that idea.

Wait, you're basically accusing DC of being a hippy.

I'm a programmer working in a small 7-man team of developers for a web design studio. We work in PHP/Symfony2 (rant for another day) and use Atlassian's JIRA ticket system for tracking issues.
We also use it for logging time. 
This being the first job I've had in which time logging has been mandatory (log all work, log 7.5 hours per day) I'm finding it to be a huge obstacle to my productivity. A train of thought is a fragile thing, and stopping after every little thing (sending an e-mail, making a Git commit) to log the time I've spent on it and what I did is proving to be very effective at derailing it. Couple this with the pressure to get 7.5 hours logged on something or other every single day and I'm actually starting to dread coming to work in the morning.
Not only this, we now have a completely redundant physical whiteboard full of sticky-notes representing JIRA tickets/issues that must be kept in-sync with the digital system. By hand.
We're such a small team, we're all in the same room. But every time we want to fix an issue we need to:
- Go to JIRA, mark the issue as 'In Progress'.
- Stand up, walk over the the whiteboard and move the sticky-note to the 'In Progress' column.
- Sit back down, fix the issue.
- Go to JIRA, log the time spent on the issue and write a short description of what has been changed.
- Mark the issue as 'Ready for Review'.
- Stand up again, walk over to the whiteboard and move the sticky-note to the 'Ready for Review' column.
- Go back to JIRA again and message the QA guys that there's a new sticky note in the 'Ready for Review' column.
I stress again, we're a 7-man web development team trying to be time-efficient, fast and agile. Everyone's practically going crazy about how everything takes too long. Part of it's to do with the bulky toolset we're using, but it baffles me that we can't slim down the ridiculous admin and let the developers do what they do best without having to watch the clock all the time.
So what's the verdict? Am I a crybaby or is this genuinely as silly as it all seems?
