A meeting with cheese, bread, corned beef, olives, and soft drinks???

Luxury! It's obvious this isn't from the 2000s onwards.

In those, you're lucky if you get a donut.

Bugs, bugs, bugs. Yep, I remember trying to debug programs in VB, COBOL, Javascript and C++, and pulling my hair out.

I still do this, but in easier languages.

Text adventures are especially tough.

Thanks for sharing, Tawm!

Yeah, there's a few bugs in my little text adventure game Final Soul. I wish I still had the source code for it, I'd actually fix the stupid bugs.
