Don’t forget “it’s too complicated”

I’ve literally seen people make this argument only a few years ago.

Serious question: what’s the use case for using PHP in greenfield projects? Is the client dictating the use of PHP or your own choice?

“you don’t need types, just use unit tests!”

I had a team lead that did this. Never answered his call. He got absolutely slaughtered for it (amongst other things) in the retro after a while after some people had reached breaking point.

The team did a test and found that not enough people who were born on the 22nd bought anything and UX wanted to make the list shorter, so it got removed.

I wonder if they have a special rule to use dd/mm/yyyy on the 4th of July.

And the days go 1,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,2,21,23 …

This is the first time I’ve seen it like this, and I’ve been using C# nearly daily for over 10 years!
