Terms of use

This morning we had a couple things come up in a meeting that made perfect sense to programmers.

The term “language barrier” came up. This time it was to remind folks that a specific group had little experience with the python scripting language.

The other was “remote serial killer”. Now, I know that term sounds like something that shouldn't come up in a programming meeting. It sounds more like something that should be in a law enforcement group get together. A serial killer is a computer you hook to your test system that is a separate network connection. When your test system gets into a very bad state, you can hit the big red button from anywhere on the planet. This prevents late night calls to the security guard down stairs.
