My boss has a bad case of “Not Invented Here” One problem I see with this argument is that the happiness of the developers are at stake. This is never factored in to these business decisions. It seems like it always costs the business in the end by losing experienced devs. |

What do you do when you encounter an idiotic interview question? @Tom But Scanner doesn't actually do any IO does it? It uses other IO elements to do the IO for it. You could use Scanner without using any IO right? (ie. a string) |

What was your worst software development day like? I've heard of the same thing happening so now I always use transactions when doing this. But now I get caught by forgetting to commit or rollback instead |
