    Sure there is. Replace your mailbox with a locking, slot-fed mailbox. Larger packages won't fit, but the majority of your mail will be secured. Now, sure, someone could break into that, too, but random kid stealing random mail won't be much of a problem.

  25. Re:That's not as funny as you think on Optimizations - Programmer vs. Compiler? · · Score: 1

    I wish I could live in a world where the only code I have to ever deal with is the code I write.

    Agreed.

    My main job is supporting one application.
    I wrote it.
    I didn't create it, I ported the basic function and added bells-n-whistles.

    Well, the app includes TSQL sprocs used by other processes.
    No big deal, as I'm the guy who writes the sprocs.

    A few days ago someone mentions wierdness in his results.
    Cursory investigation indicates no change (diffs).

    Different symptom, same issue...dig deeper, find a subroutine has been modified.

    I suppose it's a good thing that nine people have access to the codebase.
    There's no way I would strangle eight people.
    One, two, three on a dare.
    But never eight.
