Learnt Murphy's law the hard way,

Don't use your office laptop to create a personal auto porn downloading project specially when your boss suddenly wants to use your laptop to do a product demo to client.

Now looking for a new job, let me know if anyone need a smart developer who loves solving problems like the one mentioned above.

    use machine learning to select porn you will like, then save them to an html file with links, cuz that's seems easy enough

    ...

    I'm considering doing it now...

    I thought downloading porn is a thing of the past? Unless you're going to camp outdoors where no internet is available.

    @srshah19 I have to admit that I created a utility which can download an album or all albums from one 'model' from a certain website..

    @linuxxx as my mentor always says: "pls try to keep code as generic as possible". I hope your utility accepts model name and source :P

    There is no way to learn Murphy's law easily. Just saying

    Another twist. In my country it is normal for the contract to state that all creative work performed on company laptop is company property. So you would need to hand over source code and rights to the software. I wonder what they'd do with that 😂

    @cst1992 Well, I won't care. Use the company laptop for whatever you like as long as the work is done. Also we have a separate (porn free) machine for demos

    @zfor no! That's definitely wrong. Never ever do porn specific stuff on a company laptop. And never ever do personal projects on a company laptop. At least here, in Germany, there are a lot of companies that, within their contracts, state that "every piece of software created on work machines is property of company xyz" and "we hold the rights to reuse and redistribute them". Just no :D

    @SirWindfield Well, in Hungary everything you code is your intellectual property. Companies have to make a contract with the Dev to transfer the intellectual property to the company. And that only involves softwares the company is developing. Personal projects are not included. Nor your porn library 😂
    Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't​ put my porn library on my work machine. I just wouldn't fire the guy who did. As long as he/she is just storing porn and not watching it in the office. 🙂

    This is one of those things that make you go "what the fuck was I thinking anyway?" After the fact.

    Don't use your work machine for personal stuff in general. Also maybe don't crank one out near it.

    I hope your ex employer sprayed some heavy disinfectant on the laptop before giving it to IT to format (or before he took it home and appropriated your code)
