testers

Particularly Penetration Testers.

Especially if the test subject is your mom.

Or the local IT Transfem :3

Bugs are job security

limer@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 12 Dec 13:02 next collapse

Spiders and programmers both need bugs to be able to eat

You may not like it, but this is what peak software engineering job security looks like.

I’d argue human developers also enjoy finding bugs, they just don’t like HAVING them.

dohpaz42@lemmy.world on 11 Dec 22:38 next collapse

I love finding bugs, and then squishing them.

vrighter@discuss.tchncs.de on 12 Dec 13:21 next collapse

I LOVE finding bugs.

I HATE looking for them

propter_hog@hexbear.net on 12 Dec 13:40 next collapse

Ok that’s a fair point

Rubanski@lemm.ee on 12 Dec 13:48 next collapse

Are you a spider?

vrighter@discuss.tchncs.de on 12 Dec 14:09 collapse

no, but I used to have one. He didn’t like looking for them either.

yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de on 12 Dec 14:10 collapse

And the bugs are always in the last lines of code you check. It’s so infuriating! Why can’t they be in the first?

meowMix2525@lemm.ee on 12 Dec 14:13 next collapse

You’re not desperate enough for them to reveal themselves to you yet

Iron_Lynx@lemmy.world on 12 Dec 16:32 collapse

Because you stop searching when you find the bug.

You have to not execute

lines[] = Load(file.code);

bool bug_found = false;
i=0;
while(!bug_found)
{
  bug_found = findBug(lines[i]);
  //looks like I missed a bit, lemme fix
  if(bug_found)
  {
    break;
  }
  i++;
}
bug_fix(lines[i]);
// Who'd've thought that I'd need to fix a bug in a joke about fixing bugs
// Now that's some tasty irony ^-^'

You have to run

lines[] = Load(file.code);

def bugs[];
a = 0;
for(i=0;i<lines[].length();i++)
{
  if (findBug(lines[i])
  {
    bugs[a] = lines[i];
    a++;
  }
}
for(b=0;b<=a;b++)
{
  bug_fix(lines[b]);
}

vrighter@discuss.tchncs.de on 13 Dec 07:32 collapse

shouldn’t b loop until it’s <a instead of <=a ?

nilclass@discuss.tchncs.de on 13 Dec 07:44 collapse

Yes

RandomVideos@programming.dev on 12 Dec 20:19 next collapse

I enjoy finding the bugs

The problem is the existence of the bugs

stupidcasey@lemmy.world on 12 Dec 20:32 next collapse

That web developer might be an undercover product tester.

multifariace@lemmy.world on 12 Dec 22:03 next collapse

What about the scorpions!

Absolutely not true
