    Will AtW retire when he hits 25,000?

    Is it a record?
    Speaking gibberish on internet talkboards since last Michaelmas. Plus here on Twitter

      The original plan was to ban him on 24999 but from the last CUK Founders meeting we agreed that an additional rule be added to the new post code of

      If Poster = 'AtW' and postcount + 1 = 25000 then postcount = postcount - 1

      You know what they say about assumptions!

        You weren't lying when you said you'd forgotten how to write code.

          I was just thinking that myself.
          While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

            That's how I write pseudo code to get a point over. Plus if I'd known it was a test i would have studied.

              Assuming you meant to leave him stuck on 24999, it's actually wrong.

              Sadly an awful lot of developers will just transpose that into language X and think no more of it.

              I would have gone for something along the lines of

              if poster != AtW or postcount < 25000 then postcount++ else raise error "sofa so good my squirrel loving friend!"

                  Considering he promised to leave for good when he had 1 post under 13k, then came back a few weeks later I'd take any implications of retirement with a massive pinch of salt.

                    I bet they feel the same way for a PM who exasperatedly says later "it was obvious what I meant"
