Brain.Queue.IsFull() == true

Lead: Hey, do we have two queues for sent and received messages?

Me: No, we only have one for sent messages. Because of the hardware, we can only receive one message a time.

Lead: So we have 2 queues?

Me: No, just one. For sending.

Lead: So wait a second... what do we do for receiving?

Me: We receive a packet and process it and then it goes away?

Lead: What about sending?

Me: There's a queue.

Lead: So... we DO have 2 queues?

Why you should never play video games

Boss: Man what's this {famous game} that everyone keeps comparing our game to?

Me: It's pretty popular; maybe you should play it to see why they say what they're saying.

Boss: No, we shouldn't play that because then any ideas we may have will always be re-examined to see that they're not too similar to that game's ideas.

Me: ... so I should stop playing games then?

A Comment on Thinking

Lead: Hey I think I found a bug.

Me: Okay.

Lead: Can you look at line 4029?

Me: Uh, what file?

Lead: Oh yeah, {file}.cpp.

Me: Alright...?

Lead: It looks like you want to call FunctionX() instead of FunctionY() even though the comment above it says that you intend to call FunctionY().

Me: Well, as the comment says, I do intend to call FunctionY() and not FunctionX(). I didn't make a typo twice.

Lead: Oh, really? Uh, okay.
