This is what happened today in our dayli:

Lead: We need to profile our software

Me: You can use the chrome devtools as remote profiler, even on prod, or make HAR files for later inspection.

Lead: Yeah but no that’s just collecting data on every tick, we need something like “has been called x times”

Me: Yeah but you can filt -

Lead: Yeah no, so back when I wrote code in Delphi...

Me: *oh god no not this again*

Lead: ... We could have clicked a button in our IDE and it would wrap the function call with the API call to profile that function ...

Me, to the secret dev group in slack: doesn’t a simple method decorator and node performance api help with that?

The people in the group: We had this topic last Friday all day...

Me: oh well *get’s coffee and ignores lead*

    Ah, incompetent lead with a god complex.

    Got me one of those as well.

    I'd like to write a book on dumb managers and how to deal with them, but then again, it'd be just another clone of the improvised munitions handbook with some biochemistry 101.

    Use this cowboy code because I said so... it’s for data that we need because I said so
