I have mixed feeling about this test result

Schrödinger cat question resolved!! It's alive!

Let me explain a tiny corner of some awful code I read earlier today, in layman’s terms.

It’s a method to see if the user is in a secure session — not to set up the session, just to see if it exists. The method ends with a question mark, so it’s basically a question. It should look up the info (without changing anything) and should always give a clear yes/no answer. Makes sense, right?

Let’s say the question is “am I in school right now?”

The code… well.

If there isn’t a student, the answer it gives is null, not yes or no. Null is a fancy word for no, pretty much, so that’s kinda fine, but it really should be a simple no.

It then checks to see if the school is open today. If it is open, it then checks to see if I made my lunch, if I took my backpack, and if I rode the bus — and makes these things happen if they didn’t. Forgot my backpack? Just ask “am I in school today?” And poof! There’s my backpack! … but only if the school is open.

It then, finally, checks to see if I’m actually in the school, and gives that answer.

It could just see if I’m in the school — I mean, I could be in school without a backpack, or walked there on the weekend, right? Ha! You and your silly logic have no place here.

So, by asking if the user is in a secure session, we change the answer: they weren’t before, but the act of asking makes it so. This isn’t profound or anything: I don’t work with Schrödinger. My coworkers are just idiots.

And no, the rest of the code isn’t any better…

Cat schroedingers = Cats.getFromScientist("Schrödinger");
boolean lives = schroedingers.isLiving();

*runs code*
Kernel panic

This is a mind-blowing mate in 4. Let's call it "Schrödinger's Mate".

boolean must be true || false || perhaps || schrödinger

If Schrödinger submitted his cat experiment as a GitHub issue, what label would it get?

"can't reproduce".

how i declare Coding session of the day to be over : when i see an error about an error that is not an error... :D

(hint: fatal: validation failed but when asked if it passed, returns true... )

Schrödinger's cloud
it's both here and not here

Spend half an hour with the "git remote add ..." yada yada after setting up an git repo on a vps where I failed to create the home directory with the user and had to do it manually.

As I was against making a trash commit to win against the Schrödinger repo I begun torture myself with the PowerShell SSH compatibility.

I gave up at the end and made an commit with some libs I am going to use. After a last SSH port fight with git got everything up and running.

Lastly installed the new magical windows git credential manager and I am hoping to see some fairy dust in the next days.

Tl;Dr:
If(windows&&SSH&&git){
throw new EverythingWrongException("Git gud");
}
