The Weird and The Wonderful

   

The Weird and The Wonderful forum is a place to post Coding Horrors, Worst Practices, and the occasional flash of brilliance.

We all come across code that simply boggles the mind. Lazy kludges, embarrassing mistakes, horrid workarounds and developers just not quite getting it. And then somedays we come across - or write - the truly sublime.

Post your Best, your worst, and your most interesting. But please - no programming questions . This forum is purely for amusement and discussions on code snippets. All actual programming questions will be removed.

A couple of years ago we had a TV show where they took a bunch of different pet dogs and whittled them down via various agility and obedience tests etc until they had a dog which they taught to pilot an light aircraft, by using lights to indicate to it what adjustments to make. It didn't just have to fly straight and level, though, they set it a route it had to navigate.

They didn't expect it to take off and land, of course. A pilot took it up, then handed the controls over to the dog.
