      Duuude, 80040154! Don't tell me you've never 80040154ed something during you're time! There are careers out there that are totally build up on 80040154!

      That seems to be a PEBKAC problem, Sir. Why don't you go and fetch a coffee while I handle the operation?

          It's the verb form of 80040154, simple past. like talk - talked. Simple, isn't it? And also quite obvious, as you've already stated when you first posted that error message here.

                I mean _absolutely_ nothing, just like the error messages you posted meant nothing. I was just mocking about that "obvious" number; you shouldn't take that seriously. But _if_ I had intended a deeper meaning with the sentence you just quoted, it would be this: There are some people out there who are writing code just like this "obvious error message". When it comes down to maintenance, no one else could handle that kind of bullsh... horse dung. That's active job security, right there! :-\ So, whenever you stumble upon some messages like these, rest assured: There's a dude with a water tight career. He's roared up to a position where his employer is taking crap like that from him, because he couldn't let him go. But that's just a interpretation of what I wrote. Hell, if I know what I was thinking all the time, I would at least be a miner god. Or totally crazy. Better not find out.
