I have to admit, I am tired of these April fools gags now that so many people do them.
Or, maybe I'm just a bit cranky today.

A cute idea, but, like so many others, that's all it is: one cute idea.
Someone should remind all these April spoofers that it has to be funny!

One of the games I play recently suffered a disastrous bug release to production yesterday. Fortunately the developer already has published an incident report[^] on what went wrong and how they intend to prevent future recurrences:
Quote: ...
During the week of March 23rd, one of our senior gameplay programmers was performing a routine refactor on our core skill code. In preparation for our upcoming expansion, changes were made to the functionality of Trigger Gems. The goal of the refactor was to improve the reliability of the gems that trigger spells on various conditions - Cast on Death, Cast When Damage Taken, etc. During this process, the names of the gems were entered by hand. Unfortunately, due to a combination of tiredness and the programmer's previously undiagnosed Toxoplasmosis infection, the word "Cast" was entered as "Cats" for these gems.
Unbeknownst to the programmer, the consequences of this small typo were severe[^].
This change was deployed to our production realm at 10:05am on Wednesday, April 1 (NZ time) as part of the 1.3.1g point release. Players reported that the Cats Trigger Gems now spawned black cats when their conditions were met. Cats When Damage Taken suddenly started creating cats in addition to endurance charges. A feline army mourned the passing of Hardcore Exiles who used the popular Cats on Death build. Needless to say, these new gems became a powerful combo with Chance to Flea.
...
In light of the fact that typos can summon animals from nowhere, we will be dramatically changing our development methodologies. Not only must programmers now copy/paste existing game terms (to avoid typographical errors), but we will be improving our code testing framework to detect the accidental introduction of animal names into the game
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?

Priceless. I deal with the horde of cats plague every morning during breakfast, but at least not usually when playing Guild Wars 
According to my calculations, I should be able to retire about 5 years after I die.

That's funny haha. I remember at one of my previous companies, spme guy in charge of business reports and such frequently spelled "Count" without the letter "o".

Some former programmer of our application had the idea to abbreviate the term "analyze" in various variable names in an unfortunate way. Luckily these variables hide away in some core functions and don't cause any embarassing imagery in the GUI 
GOTOs are a bit like wire coat hangers: they tend to breed in the darkness, such that where there once were few, eventually there are many, and the program's architecture collapses beneath them. (Fran Poretto)

The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

Well i just know to applaude after we are on the wheels again, but thats even nicer
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

It's a shame I'm not bulimic.
I wouldn't have to stick my fingers down my throat, after reading that.

I can imagine some politician taking this seriously, deciding this a good idea and creating a law requiring it on all vehicles (with the video to be streamed to your nearest Department of Road Security office.)

A couple of weeks ago, my wife asked me if I could make a slide show application that played music. This morning I showed her an almost finished product. She thinks I'm a genius. In truth, I developed the app over 4 years ago, and it has been languishing on my dev drive ever since, waiting for refactoring. I'm concerned that she'll start to think that all of the programming tasks she gives me will take two weeks or less. You know how management and the sales team can be in these situations...

Never ever let them know it was easy or that it can be done quickly. Now you're screwed my friend, everything she asks you to do will be expected to be done quickly and with minimal effort.
