lam not a programmer at all, but I once had to use a scripting program to automate a task at work. My co-workers complained that they didn’t know how much was left and wanted a bar. So, I added a loading bar that automatically started at 30, and then every 5 seconds split the remaining and added it on (capping at 99 until done). So: 30, 65 (100-3070; 702 35; 30 (original) 35 65), 82, 91, 96, 98, 99, 99.. After that they loved it. Idiots.
