The interview candidate, a junior, said scrotum meeting instead of scrum meeting. That is when your first language is not English. One English word is just as good as another. We could agree and call it that. Perhaps it would make more sense.

There is an executive order defining the gender, which through f-up defines everybody as a woman. Now taste it. The first male born but woman (so transgender) president of the USA is (or was if they correct the definition) republican.

When I changed the version of Jamal from 2.5.0 to 2.5.1-SNAPSHOT and ran the build, 80 documentation and configuration files were changed depending on the actual version number. Imagine when you have to maintain that manually. And that is only one example.

I asked ChatGPT to translate a text to Aramaic. It did. Then I asked to translate it back to English, copying the weird characters. And it did. Then I started a new chat, meaning no context, and I asked again to translate it back... Liar!
