  1. Как биология и особенности медицинского учета издеваются над программистами

    На Хабре есть серия статей, касающаяся заблуждений программистов о, казалось бы, простых вещах: о времени , почтовых адресах , именах и даже дверях. Я недавно пообщался с ребятами, пилящими медицинский софт, и решил собрать набор таких же заблуждений, только применительно к врачебному делу. А чтобы было чуть интереснее, собрал это в виде истории, которой позавидует любой индийский фильм или турецкий сериал. Итак, перед нами молодой джун Игорь (здесь и далее все имена и фамилии вымышлены), который работает в компании, разрабатывающей софт для больниц. Его только что отправили разгребать легаси-код для ПО, установленного во множестве родильных домов. Одновременно в больницу поступила Елена Соколова, благополучно беременная двойней - будущий кармический спутник Игоря. Но не в романтическом смысле - просто благодаря Елене наш Игорь пройдет через множество Edge-случаев...

  2. today’s adventure in “being smart (?) in the least-smart way possible…”

    – buy the latest song from one of my fave artists on #bandcamp
    – order confirmation page loads, click the “download your purchase” link

    – “hmm, maybe one of my malvertising blocker extensions has hidden it…
    – disable uBlock Origin, reload page…
    – 🙅‍♀️
    – disable Privacy Badger, reload page…
    – 🙅‍♀️
    – hmm… 😡

    – “OK, I guess I’ve eliminated all the obvious things, let’s see what that help doc says…” 👀

    – click the helpful “Download Trouble” link next to the file format picker to read the help doc… 🔗 🖱️ ✅

    – file save dialog opens…
    – wait, WHAT???!?!? 🤔
    – FILE SAVE DIALOG IS OPEN 😠😡🤬
     
     
    frens, the track that I just bought is called “Trouble”… 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

    🤪🤪🤪

    there’s a lesson here about checking assumptions, #UI design cues, #EdgeCases, & #XKCD2501 – but I’m laughing too hard to hear it 😆

  4. 🤔 Oh, look, another riveting update from Dr. Mark "Da Vinci of Geometrical Code" Johnson. He bravely ventures into the treacherous world of map bugs and edge cases, a realm only the bravest can conquer with a straight face. Spoiler: there are still bugs. 🎮🔍

  6. DATEADD(month, 1, '2024-01-31') Returns WHAT?!

    Adding 1 month to Jan 31 creates something impossible! February doesn't have 31 days. SQL handles this in a weird way! Watch!

  10. The latest release of #RemafoX has fixed all 8 #BugReports.
    So, another round of #EdgeCases were covered!

    Let’s see how long #InboxZero will last. 😅
    You think your project can break it?

  12. Apparently, if you play #Worldle around midnight then you can glitch it!

    Got the country. Got the neighbours. Turned midnight. Got asked the capital of a different country.

    Go back to neighbours and they're different neighbours!
