I really hate truth tables. It feels like I'm cracking a safe like in the movie Army of Thieves, especially when I am given a complex Test Suite. lol. It's like I have to make all levers work in unison and none can fail.. kind of like The Semiconductor ASML machine. Not that bad, but still.

    Dafuq are you doing? The last time that I did truth tables was in uni. πŸ˜…

    @Lensflare I'm brushing up my skills.

    @CaptainRant I‘m sorry to disappoint you, and I don’t mean it sarcastically but you most probably won’t need to do truth tables in your dev job.
    Unless you do embedded stuff but probably not even then.

    @Lensflare Maybe if you're doing *really* low level hardware design you need to optimize truth tables.

    But that's really all I can come up with lol

    @Lensflare I had to use it for a client in the sense of:

    - send an e-mail to the client in a template format where client wants x and y in the heading, a and b in the body, c and d in the footer, but not e and f, and if an image is present, then... etc. It can get convoluted. I was obliged to write it in Java. lmao

    @CaptainRant In that case I don’t know how truth tables would be helpful.

    I‘d write properly named functions, compose those into the complicated checks and write unit tests to make sure the logic is correct.

    @Lensflare They wanted it done in one hour without tests. lmaoooo

    @Lensflare I diiid. : D Their codebase had zero tests... lmao. No testing whatsoever.

    @CaptainRant that's actually cool, become the guy introducing it and sell it as software that guarantees quality. It's an opertunity. No tests, I assume also no CI/CD then?
