Everything is open source for this guy after using this simple trick. Big techs HATE him!

    Let the patch be part of the code for one or two minor releases. Then revert the changes of the patch.

    inb4 they wait until his last day then roll back the changes because functional code/unauthorized changes are against company policy and actually they need that bug to slow down the user so they don't click so fast the database crashes.

    Always love this one, I'd do the same but there's to many fucking things to fix.

    It seems like I'm constantly finding bugs in businesses' apps. Do they not have people test them?

    They do, and they have a backlog of hundreds of issues to fix and they must prioritise then. If fixing a bug doesn't make money, it's not priority.

    As someone in the dev team for a "business app", we probably know about most or all of them, but they're just not important enough for anyone in management to prioritize them as part of a sprint. It's also possible no one has given us reproducible steps to make them happen, so we just straight up don't know what to fix. Usually the former though.

    Reminds me of when my breaks started failing on my 1990 Chrysler LeBaron so I got a job at a break repair place long enough to fix them then I quit.

    those bits on a car are called "brakes". When a brake breaks, it's a broken brake and needs to be fixed.

    Bro that reminds me when I was in university and I used to tutor fellow students with the goal of getting laid. As soon as I got laid I stopped tutoring. Now unfortunately I'm married and have kids because of that.

    He tutored girls with the hopes of getting laid, but then when he did, it turns out he liked her and settled down with her and is now married to her.
