Me: hey, I noticed we are doing this weird stuff in 'platform A' can we file a story to fix this.

Dev: It must be legacy code or library implementation before my time. By the way it's the same in platform B.

Me: yeah, we will need to fix that too.

Dev: tell you what. For now let's keep our platforms uniform we will fix it when platform B is fixed.

Welcome everyone... to the new chicken egg problem. Where even bugs are needed to be uniform across platforms.

Look here sir. If I have raised 12 defects on the feature you were working on its not a personal attack... I am not trying to publicly humilate you or doubting your ninja coding skills. We are on the same team. Just trying to make a better product that's my job as qa. So chill out with passive aggressive comments on the tickets.

You don't hear me making a peep when you take my name and say I missed the issue if someone higher up points out the same defects.

Why? It would be fun they said. Java is sooo forgiving to new Learners they said.

Irony - (noun) Switching to a new framework to do more with less code. Spending obscene amount of time and LOC to retrofit rest of the code to work with the said framework.

Sometimes I feel.... my compiler judges me.
