Re: Happy New Year
A light-hearted New Year exchange in which Obnoxio The Clown, Malc and Christopher joked about chainsaws, torture kits and a spring-loaded spike under the chair of junior programmers, triggered by a script watching for long transactions or lock overflow. No technical question or answer.
