The Exceptions

The medals arms race continues! Nothing says "I'm a coding general" like slapping 47 language badges on your profile for writing that one legendary "Hello World" program in each. It's the developer equivalent of those participation trophies we all got as kids—except now we're adults pretending our weekend Brainfuck tutorial makes us multilingual programming deities. The true irony? Half those languages were abandoned faster than New Year's resolutions, but the flair remains eternal. "Yes, I wrote a console.log once in 2017... you could say I'm something of a JavaScript expert."

Content stackoverflow.comquestions34524w 9 1101 V When I am having a big heated discussion at work, I use a rubber chicken which I keep in my desk for just such occasions. The person holding the chicken is the only person who is allowed to talk. If you don't hold the chicken you cannot speak. You can only indicate that you want the chicken and wait until you get it before you speak. Once you have finished speaking, you can hand the chicken back to the moderator who will hand it to the next person to speak. This ensures that people do not speak over each other, and also have their own space to talk. Replace Chicken with Mutex and person with thread and you basically have the concept of a mutex. Of course, there is no such thing as a rubber mutex. Only rubber chicken. My cats once had a rubber mouse, but they ate it. Of course, before you use the rubber chicken, you need to ask yourself whether you actually need 5 people in one room and would it not just be easier with one person in the room on their own doing all the work. Actually, this is just extending the analogy, but you get the idea.
