A Great Exchange

I was watching season 2 episode 12 of Quantum Leap and I heard the this exchange : Programmer : I am trying to make this code work. Boss : Just type it in and press enter. I burst out laughing. How many of you have had that boss?
"They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers! Can I get an amen?"

Sounds like Captain Stillman in "Stripes". "Coordinates? Just fire that weapon, soldier." (I liked Quantum Leap.)

Well, isn't that exactly what we do? :-) (The Boss could have been more specific: Type the correct code. We may consider that implicit.)

Just throw the code against the wall whatever sticks goes to production.

Haha, it's obvious this boss has no idea what he's talking about! We use F5, not enter ;p

So that's why they call it "spaghetti code"! :laugh:

If only he hadn't got stuck in the 22nd Century[^] for so long trying to fix that theme tune. :-D

Me too. Some interesting concepts.
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I have seen something similar with an umbrella upside down.

How *does* Quantum Leap hold up? I know it's a bit of a cult classic (and that some people would take offense at merely calling it a "bit"), but I've never watched it...and wondering if it's still worth a watch in 2024... I was still a kid/preteen in the 80s, and have long concluded some shows--no matter how big a hit they were back then--have aged gracefully...others...not so much.

When I binged it all a few years back some seemed to be missing.
