    Hi. Background: Co-Worker, (Female <- not biased, just stating the fact), Qualification: Architect... (btw, this is all C# VS2008 code, I swear) Ok, one for the count:

    public static bool NameExists (string name)
    {
    bool exists = false;
    int i = 0;
    while ((i < someListContainingNames.Count) && (exists == false))
    {
    if (someListContainingNames[i] == filename)
    {
    exists = true;
    }
    i++;
    }
    return exists;
    }

    Please see if you can read this... (Original code kept):

            else if (   ((isEXEDLL == true) || (isEXEConfig == true))
                     && ((staysTheSameEXEDLL == false) || (EXEDLLPathExistsSoCanProcess == true))
                     ) 
            {
               if (  ((isEXEDLL == true) || (isEXEConfig == true)) 
                  && (staysTheSameEXEDLL == false)
                  ) 
               {
                  if (canCopy.DoCopy == true)
                  {

    Not sure about the sql query your colleague wrote. That had to be a joke on a dull Friday afternoon :)

        Why not? If it was worth mentioning that the profession of the "developer" in question is, it's worth mentioning what the sex of the person is. Well done on nitpicking. Feminist pricks.

            Race? 100m for people with no sense of direction. Age? middle Country of origin? Current thinking is North Africa, maybe Egypt, then humans slowly migrated across all the land mass. Religion? Helps in the dark pit of night. Does that help?

                    Such a nice quote. Seriously, I feel your pain. :( PS: I'm not an "Rsole" (PPS: is it still 'an' and not 'a' when using illegal abreviations, whilst being a little hipocritical with your quote?)

                      Not saying females aren't technically sound, just saying their track record isn't exactly up to scratch, which is kind of contradicting myself, so ignore my first statement... :)

                          I have a couple of apps that I maintain (originally written by, yes, a female, human as well, and an entry-level developer) who constantly checked for (boolean_value = true). :doh:

                              Why not? If it was worth mentioning that the profession of the "developer" in question is, it's worth mentioning what the sex of the person is. Well done on nitpicking. Feminist pricks.

                                  I agree. The quality of the code written does not have any real relation to the gender of the individual. It is more of the individual and the background, training, mentoring that they have received when learning to code.

                                      It's called: "being ironic", feminist pricks? blah... In my limited years of coding, I have found that female code, must not be maintained. It will work and most of the time you can build over it, but (and yes, she does have a very nice one), working with a man, who wrote such code, I would seriously (and surely you agree) kick him in the nads, even if he were a priest by proffesion. A woman on the other hand would cut of my f*%$ing head without so much as a backward glance if I even peep about her code being (unreadable) and men and woman are just different. That's a fact. Programming is basically a text representation of a train of thought of an individual within a certain set of rules. And men and woman just don't think the same, don't have the same goals, don't have the same set of rules, don't have the same taste in beverage, don't have the same anatomy (although, I do have a nice pair of tits, that may come in handy), and so on and so forth. You can kindof see the direction I'm pointing myself in here, going for the "ignorance" plea. Feminists? Man, I hate feminists. I hate racists. I hate all types of "-ists", especially those that grow on my ass(cysts, you get it?). Taking it too far. If the situation were turned around, you won't see people berating me about being a, what, hipocrit?
