If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I'm pretty sure it actually goes for gin.
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?

expertsexchange.com, but POWERGEN ITALIA-[^] also was not bad.
Don't those guys think about the domain names they are registering?

Most of them pretty banal, but AuctionShit got me laughing out loud!
And now that I think about it, PowerGenitalia wasn't that bad either...

Urban myth, it's nothing to do with Powergen, see here. And in fact these lists were current years ago when Leslie first posted them.

I don't know if the people who registered "powergen italia" were fluent enough in English to understand the bad choice, if they were italian probably not - English knowledge in my country is lagging behind in new generations while the older are totally missing it. And by older I'm thinking about most of the people born before 1980, but I'd extend it to 1990 given that many of the people in my age range are totally ignorant in English language.

Somehow it sounds like a fun place. Testosterone powered traffic rules, real meals and all kinds of competitive activities that involve lots of noise, getting dirty and destroying things.
Edit: Like Texas, but even better.

I just started reading a very interesting book (Developer Testing: Building Quality Into Software (amazon)[^]) and the intro reminded me of a time I had a similar exchange with a dev.
Jeff Langr said: One developer, however, quit two days later without saying a word to me. I was told that he said something to the effect that “I’m never going to write a test, that’s not my job as a programmer.” I was initially concerned that I’d been too eager (though I’d never insisted on anything, just attempted to educate). I no longer felt guilty after seeing the absolute nightmare that was his code, though.
Back in the day when I was in QA, I approached a developer about a recent change he'd made to the code.
Me: "Hey, can I get the data you used to test your changes?"
Dev: "What data?"
Me: "Well, you know. The data you used to test after you made the changes and did the build? I figure I can use it as a starting place for data I can send through to insure the changes work."
Dev: "Oh. I didn't run any tests. That's for you to do. I built the thing and put it out there. Now, go test it."
Me:

Frightening, isn't it?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Just consider the current failure rates for HDD's. They're cheap and they'll replace it. Much cheaper for them then paying someone to make sure they (at least) work when they leave the factory.

I happen to know persons who shall remain nameless who have built banking systems. Unnamed persons who had to sneak into the server center to run an upgrade at 2am to cover a small but fatal bug that was causing the bank's retail system to crash every day just after noon. I have no intention of naming the persons involved in that one or that I had to leave a half pint in the pub.
